Have a look at Dr. Eric Berg's videos on nutrition, weight loss and general health. You might find them helpful. I have been heeding his advice for months and find it effortless to maintain 112lbs. The sourcing of healthy food and the changes in recipes takes a little effort initially, but I have found that it has been so worthwhile.
@@fionagregory9376 Donna was probably over-tired when she wrote that, if she craves a good night's sleep and a holiday! However you are correct in your observation.
With all these symptoms, I often wonder how some women in their 50's and 60's manage working high pressure CEO/Director level jobs, with most sleeping 4-5 hours a day and working 12 hours each day. Is there something these women are doing that we don't know? How do they hide it so well.
I'm wondering this exact thing, because I'm going through this at 28 and it's a living nightmare, I'm not functioning well at all! :( my mum sailed through menopause, as did my aunt and grandmother, none of them have issues related to menopause and they're not on HRT.
And the reason why is because when the ovary shut down the adrenals kick in which leaves a woman's body over flooded with adrenaline which makes her feel like she's having panic attacks or living on the edge Dr Berg explained this on his RU-vid channel
Brain fog is so embarrassing. Sweats smells the pear shape body I just want to scream be normal again .my joints ache I'm always tried. I used to be so dam upbeat fit as a fiddle and now I'm exhausted short in breath never feel sexy in anything dry skin dry hair sticky body...help us please

@@FoodieBeautyStan I like Dr. Pam Popper's attitude about menopause. Conventional medicine treats women like they need fixing in general. You'll feel better when you hear what she has to say. She's on RU-vid
Sorry ladies but this feels like yet another waste of time. After watching for a half an hour the third woman who obviously has not been through menopause does the classic projection that hot flashes are pretty much just in your head and you can just live with them. Yeah I get back to us in 20 years I bet you’ll feel very differently. So sad we can’t even get good help from women. don’t waste your time here the information is cliché.
I could only get through the fist 12 minutes of this. You speak of menopause as though it is a "medical problem", it generally isn't. It is a natural part of aging, advice about how to simply treat symptoms, without medical interventions, surgeries and hormones is necessary, there is not enough information. Normalising hysterectomies while pathologizing menopause is backward thinking which only serves the financial and other sectors of the "medical industry" while using women's bodies, again, as subjects for experimentation.
I absolutely agree with you! I do wanna say though, going through menopause earlier than you're supposed to is not natural. Natural menopause happens when your eggs are depleted, so ovulation no longer occurs and that triggers a decline in estrogen, that's how it's supposed to happen. I'm 28 and going through it, and it's absolute hell! :(
@@cruisepaige wish it was that easy, my doctors are not that helpful if we can even get hold of them these days, also I have a fibroid which would grow more with H.R.T and no idea where to start going the natural route.
@ Suzie G That’s a wrong assumption. When prescribed the correct dose of HRT (estrogen combined with progesteron), your fibroid will not grow. The only consequence of taking HRT in females with fibroids is, that the fibroids will not shrink opposed to those females not taking HRT, but the fibroids won’t grow either!
The worst part is that people have no clue what we are going through when we are menopausal…we are feeling like hell, and people would say…What’s wrong with her??😖😣
Wow! Ok I been thinking Ive been loosing my mind and here I see how we relate. The aniety/panic disorder has increased 1000xs over😩😩😩😩 one minute happy, sad, angry, scared, thoughts of planning my last days/not suicidal just feels like your former life is near end and now need to plan for it. This is fn horrible😥😥😢😢
I have a bit of a problem with this info. You see, the official powers that be also told us to eat according to the food pyramid. Which made everyone fatter than ever before in history. Now you recommend us taking these artificial hormones. Theres a huge difference between artificial estrogen and progesterone compared to natural varieties! But that won’t make money, so none of your studies looked at it. Im very sceptical of a doctor promoting SSRIs for menopause as a regular treatment. My mum is 86, healthy and didn’t take any artificial hormone replacement. I guess all you doctors will tell us eating low fat high carb will ‘help’ on top of all these symptom pills. This is so sad.
I absolutely agree! I don't agree with SSRI's as a treatment for anything, I had an adverse reaction to one in 2013... never again! They prescribe SSRI''s because they increase estrogen levels.
Now I understand why my mom and other older women in my family never wanna talk about menapause . This is depressing. It's sound like there is no life left when this mess a happens. Women go thru so much it's not fair
I heard you talk about Caucasian women in menopause Hispanic women in menopause Japanese women they start menopause but I didn't hear you say anything about African Americans and I happen to be African-American looking at your video and where do we fit in to this menopause conversation when do we typically start menopause if that's something you can answer thank you
There are wayyyy more symptoms than the usual. Some women have "hell" menopause. Hormone imbalance can cause thyroid issues, auto-immune issues, depression, horrible/debilitating anxiety and hellacious insominia. It doesn't stop there! Some of us have gastroperesis, vagus nerve problems and the list goes on. I am really very tired of these doctors marginalizing pre, current and post menopause. All they want to do is stay "safe" and prescribe anti-depressants. Here is some advice. Eat an anti-inflammatory diet, you can google that. Stay away from any and all chemicals for your body care, cleaning supplies, clothing. The honest truth of it is, every woman has their own body chemistry and look at it like a roller coaster. You have the kiddy roller coaster, a nice and even decline in estrogen that some may not even notice or at the very least they may have some hot flashes and mood swings but then there is the big girl roller coaster and that roller coaster has very high rises and very low lows and they happen at the drop of a hat depending on your own body. These are the women who are living the "hell" menopause and there needs to be more doctors educated about that. I am not obese and I never had any problems with my hormones until I hit the age of 52 and then I went down the first high and low dip. Estrogen does not protect the heart, progesterone protects the heart, do some real research on it. Taking a good quality progesterone in the form of transdermal cream will balance the estrogen and stimulate the estrogen while also giving you the progesterone you need. Estrogen is a big sell and that is all it is. Most women who experience bad perimenopause symptoms have estrogen dominance and estrogen is the very last thing they need. If you listen to western medicine doctors you will be on every "big" sell medication they can throw at you. Please ladies, do your research and you will learn the truth. What does "large population measurments" mean? It means, the standard dose that the general population of women should take but that is NOT for everyone, these days with all of the plastics, pollution, chemicals in our food, the real fact is, our estrogen is and has been elevated due to these things.
Well this was a really good talk until they based their information on the woman’s health initiative study. With that study they use Synthetic estrogens and PROGESTINS! This is why the study with estrogen only proved to be better. Progestins are horrible. Also, recommending birth control for your form of hormones again are using progestins and synthetic hormones. Wah wah wah… this was good until that
It's killing me.hot flashes weakness.cant xplaine all.Thank you all for for letting me know what I can do to help myself. May God continue to guide and protect you all🙏🏼♥️
Omg am going through this right now and it make me feel like am in hell when my body gets hot i feel weak i went through this right through the night may god help us all as woman this thing is not nice
Right?! Women are significantly underserved in heath research. Its despicable there are not better options for women to have a better quality of life during the transition to menopause. And they still lie to women and say birth control doesn’t cause weight gain. 😡
I watched an interview with a British menopause doc (Rebecca Lewis) right before this and her take was dramatically different from these women’s. She endorces HRT for anyone who doesn’t have reason to not use it, and for life if desired. And she feels that hormones lower almost all risks.
@@amakiss3 yep, I have been there. It has improved. I use to have bps of 90/60 doctors didn't understand. I now know that my menopause must have started 6 yrs ago
I'm 48 Now, since 38 I have a lot of problem!! I feel something wrong with balance in walking tension headache, migraine , dizziness hot at night, sweat!! Anxiety, joints pain. I don't know what happenings to me sometimes I will cry why is this happening to me!! I am going crazy. I really wish to know will perimenopause cause balance problem in walking. Hope someone will give me some information.
Wanted to let you know my very first symptom was dizziness /off balance started at 43 yrs old I was healthy and fit goes on and off now 55 only had it once this year thank goodness. Take good care
Very helpful. Thank you to each of the Dr's. I am perimenopausal and it is indeed a trying journey. I co-host a show on RU-vid called Menopause The Dialogue and our goal is to simply help women understand their journey and be a support and share information. As women we need all of the help and support. Once again thank you.
I agree... I'm also peri & it's impacting every day life & I'm completely alone & overwhelmed right now. Last year I had to go see a doctor bc things were so bad & she just continued to tell me I'm to young & just wouldn't hear anything I was saying, I was in tears, having several hot flushes that the nurse could physically see happening she said are you having one right now you've got sweat beading all over you & she was trying to take my blood pressure and my heart rate was crazy. So I left in tears & felt even worse than when I arrived. Three days later the nurse called said my TSH Level was really high so I was also dealing with hypothyroidism & that the doctor wanted more blood work. Without insurance all the blood work was going to be around 800.00 she said bc they were hormone test they would be very expensive so I was unable to have them done. When I asked her so what now what can I do she just said until I have all 8-9 of these test the doctor wouldn't be able to do anything for me. These issues are making my life & my family's life so hard. Idk if the thyroid issue I'm having is part of perimenopause or something completely wrong all by itself, I'm reading it is connected bc it's also another hormone. Without insurance I don't have any other options so I've tried changing my diet & things I can but not any better at all. I really feel like I'm losing my mind. I'm very interested in your channel. I NEED all the help I can get! I hope your doing better since your comment. Best wishes!
I feel like women need friends and support. The mental piece is the worst. I know many women that do not realize what is causing gastric symptoms, insomnia and hotflashes. I think the 20 percent do not recognize what is going on.
I'm going through it at 28, symptoms started when I was 27. There's no known history of premature menopause in the family, both my mum, and my grandmothers on both my mum and dads side went through it in their mid 40s to early 50s. Doctors have put me through mental hell because not a one have believed that I'm going through this, so I'm not recieving any treatment. I've been this way now for a year and the symptoms are so bad compared to the beginning and I'm really struggling! :'( There's nothing normal or natural about this.
Is very hard for me mentally 😪 and body pain ,migraines, anxiety...2 years into my menopause. Good information 👍I'm doing my best.eat well ,meditation ,support group.and same meds for my depression which I never experienced before pray for me. I take one day at the time.and I know.will passed 🙏bath I have to accept 😢and try to be positive 🙏🙂💗❤
I'm 52 and only started experiencing NECK, CHEST and EXPLOSIVE CLAVICLE pain since taking the vax last June. It lasts for more than 5 minutes everyday. I don't have other symptoms like dryness or night sweats. Is this really hormonal or the mRNA??
My hot flashes lasted for gosh like five hours for seven years give or take, but guess what it was actually a heart attack. 70% blockage right coronary artery… Stent put in three days I was released from hospital and I actually felt that negative energy a hot/mold actually leave my body it was the most euphoric feeling ever. So now I’ll be one year heart attack survivor come March 2020 will be 57 years old and might now I’m having a hot flash Like not before so this is a different type of hot flash for me now is more controllable flash but it’s not consistent like before I hope it stops soon I’m tired of those my depression is worse my libido nonexisting for a very long time even before menopause so that’s another issue… one day at a time
Best wishes to you, moringa teas are great for PMS and menopause for it is packed with minerals such as iron and zinc and magnesium and other beneficial nutrients. Menopause is caused by lack of minerals present in the body just like pms.hot flashes will increase when you have too much soy in the body. Remove soy and soymilk from your diet and French French fries and soda.
Vaginal atrophy is so bad. Had UTI symptoms from the start of the menopause but kept being told urine dip test was clear. It wasn’t until I saw a consultant after a scan, she asked if I was having those symptoms and put me on Vagifem. It really changed my quality of life. Unfortunately due to costs, this has now been changed to a generic pessary so I hope this works just as well. Good luck to all women suffering with menopausal symptoms.
Just some thoughts my mother who had 9 children who was Slovak descendant and my mother -in-law who was Mexican who had 11 children both told me they had no hot flashes or felt no menopause both died in there 80's.I wonder if menopause would start earlier for a girl who has a period at 10 than as to on who starts at 17.Had hysterectomy at 40 cervical cancer could not take estrogen because gave me horrible restless legs .Do you think our bodies are just made to have a lot of children.
This is very interesting and I actually believe it. The earlier a girl starts her period, the earlier she'll go through menopause, because eggs are starting to be released earlier, so they'll be depleted earlier. And I always wondered if not having babies by a certain age accelerates the decline in estrogen leading to menopause too, because it makes sense. Also, my mum, aunt and grandmothers on both my mum and dads side didn't experience any menopausal symptoms, I asked them and the only sign they said they had was their periods stopping. Our bodies are designed for reproduction, really it's our bodies main purpose of existence, so I really do believe that having babies is necessary for reproductive health and preservation, and not having them speeds up the transition to menopause, and as a result, earlier death.
Been having hot flashes for almost 10 years. Just missed my first period last month, and it looks like nothing this month too. Breast pain. Insomnia. *Weeeeeee*
Same with me this month I did not get my period at all! I'm kind of hoping that it's good that I'm done with it because men don't understand how bad the hot flashes are the mood the nausea and just ingested oh and I can't forget migraines of course!

I had very mild hot flashes at 5 a.m. Occasionally. My vagina gets wet. The problem is, it got narrow. So I can't have sex. Had I known this, I would have had more sex to prevent it. But unfortunately, they call this "vaginal atrophy," which made it impossible for me to learn about it in advance. Who would google "vaginal atrophy?" And I'm unwilling to use unnatural things. I'm depressed not because of my hormones but because of what menopause represents. Less life to live. And listening to all these symptoms is so depressing. Lack of exercise and poor diet causes fat weight gain, loss of muscle mass and dementia.
At 10:16 the first Dr. talked about ethnicity being a factor as to when someone may begin to experience symptoms. Any information on African American Women as we have been studied in the medical arena from the beginning of western medicine? It’s still over an hour remaining to watch and I’m already annoyed that we are not considered in the conversation so far. If your offended by my comment, blame it on my Menopause and keep scrolling.
I was surprised too at no mention of coloured people yet coloured people are often the first to have trials done on them, sadly often without consent. Anyway, that aside, the rest of the content here is very informative. From what I have heard, women of African descent have similar symptoms and I have heard of many who use the remedies suggested by these doctors and others who only use supplements plus others who choose to take nothing. It's about preference and how severe and how long your symptoms last.
@@donnaphones3884 You are so right about not having our consent to do trials on us. That is why we really should have been included in this talk because they already have and had our study results. I turned it off because I was turned off from their information after no mention of us in 20 min. But, I continued to search and found some great info. on my new adventure with Ms. Menopause from other uploads. I am going to go with herbal remedies. 😊 All the best to you!
Thanks Lorenzo. I am also using herbal remedies, eating low carbs once or twice a day, limiting stress and prayer. Receive your healing sister. May we all be healed in Jesus name.
Thank you ladies, nice to see women supporting women. It’s so interesting, scary really, how one study (WHI) mis-informed and mis-directed so many Dr’s in supporting women regarding the use of HRT. In addition to what was shared, diet & lifestyle as in whole foods, fiber, antioxidants and healthy fats along with daily exercise and meditation is in my opinion the foundation of any health and healing program. May all women feel empowered with answers and support through mid-life and connect more deeply to their inner wisdom. Blessings ~
PMDD doesn't equal menopause, it is caused by high levels of estrogen, which occurs naturally in many women. Unless you already recieved a menopause diagnosis?
I used to get instead hot flashes daily (only in my face & head) in my 30s. I was obese! Something good happened at 40. My hot flashes ended. I lost 80 pounds at 43 and wow. More energy & no hot flashes at all. However...at 45...I have experienced night sweats ..rarely and they are bad. Only 1 every 4 months....and...they do disturb sleep. Thank God I don't get them that often.
very strange for me because I have regular periods that are painless at 53 but I have hot flashes and night sweats that are very annoying and disrupting my life because I’m sleep deprived in the daytime! I started taking DIM months ago I will continue to take them hopefully they will also assist w the very large fibroid I have
I hate hot flashes and mood swings and I’m feel like I’m getting where my period only goes 1 day and that’s it and I got my tummy kinda big from this and im 48 and my mom had her start at 40
I have always had insomnia for as long as I can remember but lately it’s gotten worse. I just made 33 this month. Is it too early for me to be going thru menopause? 🤔🤨
Insomnia doesn't have one single cause, so you can't go by insomnia alone to say you're going through the menopause. 33 is too early, any age before 40 is early and it's not normal. I'm 28 and I've been going through it for a year, so I was 27 when I entered perimenopause. :(
If you had surgery, it could be ACNES, a condition caused by nerves being pinched together during previous surgeries. A lady who had it was in the news. She mentioned a doctor Timothy M. Whitney and his friends helped her. Its often mistaken for visceral pain. It was discovered by a professor John Carnett. Pls do your research since im not able to retrieve the article with the info but if i do i will sure post it. All the best.
@@wandef2418 it’s ok to ask… Unfortunately yes, because I had a total of 8lbs of tumors attached to my uterus and ovaries. They said they couldn’t just remove the tumors without causing severe damage to the organs. He thought he could save the ovaries, but once he was inside he couldn’t.
I have low confidence in healthcare professionals that are obese and clearly healthy. If they are that knowledgeable, why don’t they take their own advice.
I’m sorry to say but these Drs are not up to date with the HRT FACTS. Only combined HRT causes clots NOT body identical oestrogen jel! And you can stay on bio identical HRT forever without risks. You guys need to listen to Dr Louise Newson and Dr Avrum Bluming to learn the true facts about HRT and breast cancer.

I recommend my patients Planet Ayurveda's Naari Kalyan Churna, Coral Calcium Complex, Female Health support and Brahmi Capsules. These will help balance hormones and relax the mind.
The second speaker has no idea how my biological dr helped me. Guess what no saliva test several several blood tests several types of tests this was not a game this was a legitimate doctor and giving me only estrogen that I needed I had a lot of one but not a lot of two and very little three of the three estrogen‘s so you might want to double check your data because without the bio identical doctor my life was hell.

How are mares and their offspring treated in the production of Premarin? Has the process improved for them - wherever Premarin is manufactured (country)?
I don’t understand why this is NEVER ADDRESSED. An animal shouldn’t have to suffer so that I don’t. I wish I had known how they do suffer before I used Premarin. I think it’s important to know all of the facts!
The life cycle itself is the road to death unless you believe in 'superpowers'. So, in other words, we all are 'sentenced to death' and set to go through physical decline in a process, no matter how many tricks medicine and science come up with. But for women, the process of aging is the most brutal. It's almost like we intentionally are used and thrown away as disposables after reproductive work is done. We are left to this misery and to deal with suffering instead of well deserved rest during older years.
Thank you so much for such wonderful information. Going through this full blown menopause and I am looking for solutions and this has been so informative so I can make a decision that is appropriate for me.
This is so insightful. Thank you so much for making this information available to so many women. I'm 59 years old. I started menopause at 53. I don't take medication at all. So I really had to establish a peaceful existence to get through this stage of my life. All I can say is it gets better with time. Put your peace of mind first.
@@vivwilliams5412 I am willing to trade places with you! I am 53 still have regular periods no pain though or cramps. I have a very large fibroid that causes excessive bleeding I’m afraid to have a hysterectomy because I have a healthy sex life and the thought of incontinence which I never had is just the risk I am taking. I have hot flashes and night sweats now and it’s annoying as hell because it disrupts my sleeping pattern at night and I’m cranky in the day from being sleep deprived! So not only do I have heavy periods but the huge fibroid plus hot flashes. So if I haven’t gone into menopause yet I’m still feeling 100% of all the affects I just can’t win honestly!

Hypothyroid symptoms include weight gain, severe fatigue, weakness, slowed thinking, confusion, trouble concentrating, sensitivity to cold, depression, paranoia, hearing loss, dry skin, coarse hair, and hair loss. People with hypothyroidism need to take thyroid hormone replacement for the rest of their lives Skin that is flaky, red, scaly, oozing, itchy, thickened, and sometimes blistered or painful Treatment may include one or more of these: Keeping the skin moisturized Avoiding too much time in water Avoiding triggers Topical or oral corticosteroids Antihistamines Antibiotics (for infection) Immunosuppressant drugs Ultraviolet light therapy The most common symptoms of migraine include a dull or severe headache that may be worse on one side of the head, and a throbbing, pulsating, or pounding in the head. Other symptoms may include loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, sensitivity to sound or light, chills, sweating, numbness or tingling, and increased urination. Some migraines can be treated at home with over-the-counter pain relievers. Severe migraines are usually treated with prescription medicines called triptans, anti-nausea medicine, or sedatives. Pain-relieving medications usually work best when taken at the first sign of a migraine. Frequent migraines can sometimes be prevented by taking medications such as beta-blockers, antidepressants, antiseizure drugs, or by getting a Botox injection in the muscles of the forehead and neck. When a headache strikes, most of us head for the medicine cabinet or local pharmacy and take an over-the-counter pain pill such as acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen, or pain-relieving drugs with caffeine. But when you don’t follow the instructions on the bottle or from your doctor, these medicines could give you a rebound headache. Many common pain relievers, when you take them in large enough amounts, can cause rebound headaches. These include: Aspirin Sinus relief medications Acetaminophen Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen and naproxen Sedatives for sleep Codeine and prescription narcotics Triptan drugs for migraine, such as naratriptan (Amerge), sumatriptan (Imitrex), zolmitriptan (Zomig), and others Over-the-counter combination headache remedies that have caffeine (such as Anacin, Bayer Select, Excedrin) Ergotamine medications (such as Bellergal-S, Bel-Phen-Ergot S, Cafatine PB, Cafergot, Ercaf, Ergomar, Migergot, Phenerbel-S, Wigraine) Butalbital combination pain relievers (fioricet, fiorinal, Supac)

This is very educating. Thank you for uploading. Am here because am having Hot Flashes, mine started at 42 going to 43 years of age up till now. It's making me miserable and depressive. It does not go away, it always comes back. I feel for my fellow women going through Hot Flashes and constant sweat.
It's what you don't do, not what treatment you take. Cutting out sugar, cutting down on dairy, eating less meat, avoiding endocrine (hormone) disrupting chemicals. And exercise helps. Then if all that doesn't work and your symptoms are intolerable only then should you consider medical treatment. Medical treatments are risky. Thinking that menopause makes us bitchy is testimony to how willing women are to blame themselves and how brain washed they are in doing so.
Even if I find someone's views upsetting, or disagree with them, there's always a chance I may find something, in what they say, useful. But it just made me more and more depressed. Not because of hormonal issues but because of the fact that Menopause represents the reality of aging and we associate aging with all sorts of afflictions and infirmities.I felt like this channel was patronizing and presented the issues some people have of menopause as inevitabilites. Eventually I gave up and did watch something else: Dr.Popper, whose dietary advice made me feel hopeful about aging, and two physio therapists (Jeff and Bob) helped correct the joint pain that I'd mistakenly attributed to menopause.
Best wishes, eliminate soy from your diet and French fries and soda. Moringa teas are great for PMS and menopause and anemia. It is packed with minerals such as iron and zinc and magnesium and helps with weight gain due to menopause.
