@@luisesc98 Go to a different doctor who actually listens
Regular doctors arent trained in real Hormones for perimenopausal and menopausal women.They are also risk adverse to even testing your blood levels because that might mean they may have to treat you with hormones. AND THEY HAVE A HUGE HOSTILITY ;EVEN IF THEY DONT SHOW IT; FOR PROGESTERONE, TESTOSTERONE, and even other bioidentical hormones like DHEA, Nandrolone, and pregnenolone.
Bare minimum, most women will need progesterone and testosterone. You need to go to hormone clinic like DEFY MEDICAL or ELEVATE. They can help but they dont take insurancd
Thank you so much.....I used to be very good at fasting but with the menopause it just makes me feel ill.....I have followed what u say about eating regularly and drinking loads of water makes such a difference I feel so much better and don't berate myself for not fasting....its not keto
Hi Caron
Great to hear that you are feeling better with this!

Im feeling it too! On my off days, I would wake up no later than 10:30am but now in my mid 40s, im waking up at 1:30pm on my off days!
Hi MissTia
Unfortunately, our body does need more rest to cope with all the changes going on so if you can get extra sleep that's great!

@@AvogelCoUk Energy pills help a LOT!
Hello could you tell me what energy pills you take? I am 44 and struggling. Hope you are o.k x
@@bingandthechucks Amberen works GREAT!
@@MissTia777 thank you i am in the uk and can only see that on amazon. It is quite expensive but i will look into it.
Helpful reminders. I find it a double whammy when you have all these helpful tips to help with fatigue but brain fog is a symptom so remembering it all is daunting. I guess I need to write it down and simplify a way to get all those vitamins and minerals.
Hormone replacement Therapy ... ull thank me later.
Hi Corena
I find post-it-notes invaluable for helping to remember everything :)

Thank you for info! I also struggle with weight gain😢
I also have obstructive sleep apnoea. Which can make you feel this way.
Thank you for all your work, your channel helps me a great deal. All this talk of eating and eating frequently, I have the opposite problem. I find my appetite goes away for two or three days at a time each month. I struggle to get food in! I drink water and add lemon juice to it. I'll drink plenty of herbal teas, but the food, I just can't force it down sometimes (my anxiety levels will be much higher during that time too, and I'll be lucky to be able to get even six hours of sleep the night before) hence the camomile tea). Have you ever heard of this before, or anyone else here ever experienced that too?
Hi
Some people do find that they lose their appetite when stressed or anxious and if it's just for a few days then there is no reason to worry. Just make sure that you are still drinking enough water to avoid dehydration as this will only make anxiety worse!
Great to hear that you are finding our channel helpful, thank you!

@@AvogelCoUk excellent! Thank you SO much ❤️. I appreciate all of your advice more than words could say. All the very best to you, your family, and your team. ❤️
@@deanne1671 thank you too!
Thank you, great advice ..I take all of those supplements, although I must increase my water intake. I drink 1 coffee & a calming blend of herbal tea most of the day. Remember that breathwork can also help with so many symptoms :)
Great tip about the breathing Geraldine, thank you for the reminder! As you say, it's great for so many things.

You're welcome Renata!
Along with menopausal symptoms I have a host of other symptoms for which there is no explanation. i can only think of adrenal fatigue for my strange symptoms. Adrenal kealth is huge during menopause, anyone has adrenal symptoms going into menopause, literally bedridden :(
You're absolutely right, adrenal fatigue can play a huge part in menopause symptoms. Acupuncture can often be really helpful for this so worth looking into.

This is my problem too (adrenal fatigue), but I have a double whammy as I live with complex ptsd and am also perimeno.
Thank you for addressing this topic ...how many symptoms does the menopause has? Am just blown away every week when a new vlog comes out as i go through the symptoms mention ....knowledge is power and i embrace my experience now knowing it will be ok...this too shall pass....thanks Eileen for another outstanding vlog👏👏👏👏
You're welcome Island Girl. Unfortunately, there are a lot of symptoms that can appear in the perimenopause/menopause, very often these can just be weak areas of your general health that 'give' under the pressure of the changing hormones!

Brilliant video. Q. I suffer with Gullstones and IBS can I still take magnesium and the other things that you have suggested? X x x
Hi Zen Doodling,
Yes, you can but try to take a gentle magnesium such as magnesium glycinate so as not to upset your digestion.

I’m 55 going thru menopause. 1 year ago I started feeling like my vulvar area travels thru the rectal area and the bottom of my feet feel like am on fire.
DO YOU BY CHANCE KNOW WHAT COULD BE GOING ON? PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE MY WHOLE LIFE HAS CHANGED FOR THE WORSE.
Hi Ilaria
There could be a number of reasons for this such as a prolapse, vaginal atrophy or even a trapped nerve in the spine. Each of these situations would require completely different treatments so it is really important to get a proper diagnosis from your doctor first. Without knowing the underlying cause, recommending something appropriate would be very difficult, sorry.
Once you know the reason, and you still wish to treat it naturally, then please do get back in touch and I can see if we can be of help.

How does type 1 diabetes affect menopause?
Hi Luna
A far more regular check may be needed on blood sugar levels during menopause, as hormonal fluctuations may cause changes to endocrine function that change medication requirements.

Where can I get the Menopause support tablet? I live in the United States NOT the UK
Hi Jen
Unfortunatley, we don't have an outlet in the US, sorry. You could ask at your local health store for a fermented soya supplement and add in some magnesium, approx 150mg and you may get similar results
