Reduce Distressing Menopausal Symptoms

Some medical topics don't get the attention they should. Often, these discussions are classed as 'too awkward' to have, so they simply don't occur.

Menopause is a primary example of this. Many women, no matter their age, feel nervous or uncomfortable talking about it. So, they suffer painful and unpleasant symptoms in silence. That's why it's so essential for us to open up the conversation.

Don't just put up with it. With our help, you can reduce distressing menopausal symptoms and make you feel supported, calmer and happier in yourself.

Strengthen Your Pelvic Floor

Improve your pelvic floor function. Many women experience increased incontinence during the menopausal years. Therefore, it is a good idea to see a pelvic health specialist who will assess your pelvic floor and give you an appropriate exercise programme.

Improve Vaginal Dryness

For improved sexual function, use an effective organic lubricant or moisturiser, such as Yes or Sylk. Topical oestrogen can also help. If you continue experiencing pain during sex, see a pelvic health expert for an assessment.

Exercise & Weight Management

If you haven't been exercising regularly, start gently and build up gradually. Include regular weight-bearing exercises in your routine, as this will promote good bone health. Exercise will also help you to build and maintain muscle strength, flexibility, and good mental health.

Get Some Sleep

Make sure you are getting adequate sleep and managing your stress or anxiety levels. To achieve this, try whatever works best for you, whether exercise, yoga, mindfulness, meditation, or any other uplifting activity. An increase in daily activity promotes a better quality of sleep.

Keep Your Bowels Healthy

Relieve constipation, wind, bloating and sometimes IBS-type symptoms with adequate water and fibre in your diet. Also, use a toilet stool for good bowel ergonomics and ensure you introduce at least 30 minutes of regular exercise per day.
