Menopause
Menopause is when your period ends from natural hormonal changes. It often happens around the age of 50. The transition is called peri-menopause. Women often get symptoms during peri-menopause such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, fatigue, body pain, skin dryness, vaginal dryness, libido changes, skin discomfort to name a few. This is also a time when old patterns of thinking and lifestyle start to show up in the body that need revising and addressing. A look at wholistic options for managing issues that arise at the perimenopausal time is beneficial for many woman. It can be surprising and a relief how a lifestyle change can make a huge difference without having to go on hormonal replacement.
Endometriosis
This is a condition involving uterine menstrual tissue outside of the uterus. One in nine women have endometriosis and often there is a late diagnosis as detecting and diagnosis is not straightforward. A good history and sonovaginography assists in assessing for endometriosis. Often the only way to really know is by an operation laparoscopy to have a look inside.
I have been living with endometriosis since a young adult but was only diagnosed recently. The diagnosis process is quite unique to endometriosis and having experienced a wholistic approach I am passionate about guiding people with endo through their personal journey as naturally as possible. There are many avenues to manage the flares and pain and return to function without going to surgery as the first option.
Endometriosis is often associated with symptoms such as chronic fatigue, irritable bowel, depression, anxiety, insomnia and chronic pain to name a few. This is why a wholistic approach is helpful.
