Natural menopause care
MENOPAUSE marks the time in a woman's life when menstruation stops and she is no longer fertile. Women spend at least onethird of their lives in or beyond menopause.
The mean age of menopause among Malaysian women is 50.7 years, based on a study conducted locally. Perimenopause begins with having symptoms but still having periods, which can last four to five years. Post- menopause occurs once 12 months have passed without period. Surgical menopause happens if both ovaries are removed for medical reasons. After menopause, women lose the protective effects of oestrogen and are at increased risk of osteoporosis and heart disease.
The following are general symptoms of menopause: – Irregular periods – Hot flushes – flushing of face and chest; may be accompanied by heart palpitations, dizziness, headaches – Night sweats – Vaginal dryness – Insomnia – Mood changes – depression, irritability, tension ( usually happens with sleep problems)
Symptoms of menopause occur due to the changing hormones that the woman experiences. Therefore, women often seek treatment to replace their naturally declining hormone. Medical practitioners routinely prescribe hormone replacement therapy ( HRT) but the benefits and risks are controversial ever since the Women Health Initiative Study raised serious health questions on it. Complementary alternative treatments are Black cohosh and Soy Isoflavone, but their contributing factors to liver damage and cancer activity is a serious concern too. Finally, there’s a safe, all- natural, fast acting answer to menopause.
EzyFemin- 100 is a powerful combination of three botanical root extracts – Phlomis umbrosa, Cynanchum wilfordii, and Angelica gigas Nakai ( Korean Angelica), all of which have at least 400 years of documented usage and history in South Korea.
EzyFemin- 100 is now available as a key ingredient in over- the- counter advanced menopause relief in your nearest clinics and hospitals. In numerous clinical studies, EzyFemin- 100 has shown to have a significant impact on hot flushes/ night sweats and vaginal dryness.
It improved 10 common menopausal symptoms such as dizziness, insomnia, nervousness, burning sensation, severe depression, tingling, rheumatic pain and fatigue, with significant improvement of vaginal dryness and hot flush.
EzyFemin- 100 is one of the safest ingredients in the menopause category and works in a short period of time – 80% of the women showed improvement in these multiple symptoms at four weeks of consumption, while some showed noticeable improvements within seven to 14 days, whereas other botanical choices would take at least six weeks.
In addition to the substantial effect EzyFemin- 100 has on menopause symptoms for pre-, peri- and post- menopausal women, it is also among the safest options in the market. Studies show that EzyFemin- 100 does not have any oestrogenic effect nor it does in affecting the weight, body mass index or liver enzymes, all of which are affected by other botanical choices.
Many women regard menopause as ‘ old age’ and tend to get depressed about it, but menopause is just a phase in life. Facing it positively is important. Being prepared for menopause is also important, as one would then be able to face the changes in a more positive light. Look after yourself and your loved ones at this stage in your life and live well to enjoy it.
