Conquering Menopause
Menopause is the term commonly used to describe the physical and psychological changes in a woman's life due to the reduced production of estrogen hormones by the ovaries, this occurs because the follicles in the ovaries stop producing eggs usually between the ages 45 and 55.
The ovaries start to secrete more androgen hormone to stop menstruation, which is mainly a male hormone used for the development of male characteristics such as: facial hair, deepening of voice and increased muscle bulk, also the male characteristics aggression and baldness.
Symptoms associated with menopause are:
Sweating, hot flashes, sleep disturbances, fatigue, forgetfulness, dizziness, brain fog, palpitations, hair loss, brittle bones, mood swings, crawly skin sensations, joint pains, headaches and exhaustion.
Hormone sensitive tissues begin to shrink causing dryness, and urinary control problems. Bone mass begins to decrease and skin becomes thinner loosing elasticity.
There are three principle forms of estrogen found in the human body estrone, estradiol and estriol. Estradiol is the primary estrogen produced by the ovaries. Estrone is formed from estradiol. This is a weak estrogen and is the most abundant estrogen found in the body after menopause. Estriol is produced in large amounts during pregnancy and is a breakdown product of estradiol. Estriol is also a weak estrogen and may have anti-cancer effects. Before menopause estradiol is the predominant estrogen. After menopause estradiol levels drop more than estrone so then estrone is the predominant estrogen.
Premarin® has been the most studied and most commonly prescribed estrogen supplement in the world. This is now widely prescribed in the form of skin patches, tablets and creams and has been available for many years, claiming to be the most natural way to take estrogen.
Many menopausal women were shocked when the Women's Health Initiative showed that hormone replacement therapy did not prevent heart disease, even though women had been told that taking the therapy would reducing symptoms of menopause, preventing heart disease, osteoporosis and memory loss. Researchers also found that hormone replacement therapy also slightly raised the risk of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, so many of these women, decided they had to seek an alternative to HRT or go it alone and accept the risks and discomforts of menopausal changes.
Here's Cathy's Story
I was suffering like most women — going through menopause in a vacuum. I felt all alone without any solutions to the regular effects menopause was having on my daily life. My family couldn't relate and I was afraid to tell my best friend because she wasn't having the same problems I was.
I decided to go and see my doctor. I figured since this was a medical issue he would have the solutions to my problems.
Wow, what a learning education about women's health care that was.
I discovered that the hormone replacement therapy (HRT) doctors have been giving women for years, is now reported to be causing the things it was said to prevent: heart attacks, strokes and even cancer.
I was scared, discouraged, and unhappy with my lot in life... frustrated that this was happening to me at this time in my life.
Today, I'm a new woman... no more panic attacks, anxious moments, or feelings that I'm losing control of my life.
These days I'm eating healthier than I've ever eaten before, I'm experiencing greater joy and fulfillment than ever before, and other than the occasional bloating... I've conquered menopause.
YOU CAN TOO!
Virtually all women going through menopause agree — getting the right information, the right facts, uncovering the truth about menopause at the right time is invaluable.
My discovery — the uncovering of the right information, the right tips, as well as alternative approaches to coping with menopause — was something I needed to share with every women I could.
My team of researchers combed more than 150 websites related to menopause. We looked at medical sites like WebMD and Mayo Clinic as well as medical journal sites and the far out "edgy" alternative medicine sites.
We reviewed, read, digested, and assimilated more than 25 books on the subject of menopause.
Here's what we discovered...
Most of the information in the books was out of date by the time the book was published and available on the shelves at your local book store. Since it can take from 12-24 months for a book to go from research to the shelves, many medical facts and research is already out of date.
We also discovered that while websites had the ability to be more up-to-date, most were not. We went back to numerous sites over a period of 6-9 months and found that nothing had changed even though new medical information, research and advice had been published.
One thing you can be sure of, when you invest in How To Conquer Menopause, you will have access to the latest information in medical research and alternative approaches to treating menopause symptoms.
And, since this is an e-book, you will automatically be entitled to receive each and every revision, at no additional cost to you. I'll send you a "revision notice" by email and you can just go and download the most recent version.
