Now that you know everything about menopause, discover how to live well through this period of your life, ladies! As stated in the previous article, a menopausal woman faces symptoms such as hot flashes, decreased libido, urinary problems, headaches, breast tenderness, etc. Discover these 7 tips to alleviate the most common symptoms.
-
Reduce hot flashes
Hot flashes are the primary burden experienced by menopausal women; this sensation of intense heat appears suddenly and uncontrollably. It is recommended to consume foods that contain phytoestrogens such as soy, parsley, garlic, cucumbers, peas, carrots, potatoes, cabbage, sesame/poppy seeds, etc. Scientific evidence shows that frequent consumption of these foods can significantly reduce hot flashes.
-
Soothe irritability
Mood swings are also very common during this period. To calm anxiety, nervousness, and irritability, you can choose to practice a sport that allows you to let off steam, like boxing, or use essential oils in a diffuser to help you work on your breathing and thus calm your nerves. Lavender essential oil is known for its soothing and relaxing properties; it will provide you with a feeling of well-being and extreme relaxation.
-
Fight migraines
Headaches, like hot flashes, come on suddenly and often are extreme and unbearable. To naturally relieve these horrible migraines, you can opt for a roll-on with essential oils that you apply to your temples. This type of roll-on is readily available in pharmacies. Furthermore, you can also use a gel cap that will help you alleviate the pain in no time.
-
Alleviate breast tenderness
Breast tenderness can be difficult to deal with daily. The only advice we can give you is to stimulate your breasts daily by lightly massaging them for a few minutes, for example, in the shower. Wearing an appropriate bra is also essential. It shouldn't compress you too much; it should support you without compromising your comfort throughout the day.
-
Restore your usual libido
Similarly, vaginal stimulation is also necessary to counteract this decrease in libido. To do this, you can opt for different locations with your partner, role-playing games, or the use of vaginal stimulant or even a vibrator for more pleasure and to rekindle the flame within you. Moreover, since decreased libido is often accompanied by vaginal dryness, don't forget to use lubricant during sexual intercourse. Regular consumption of certain aphrodisiac foods (ginger, honey, cinnamon, etc.) is also recommended to instantly kickstart things!
-
Fight urinary leaks
It only takes a sneeze or uncontrolled laughter to release one or more small drops. Unfortunately, there is no miracle cure for this, but you can opt for adapted anti-leak panties to avoid feeling uncomfortable or ill at ease when this happens.
