Perimenopause and Menopause

The impact of peri/menopause is huge. The first signs commonly appear in your forties, although for some the transition begins at a younger age and lasts longer, resulting in symptoms often being misdiagnosed.

As your endocrine system starts to undergo change, there is a shift in the natural balance of your hormone levels. It is more important than ever to ensure that your body and mind are functioning at their best; to maintain the delicate balance of your hormones, keep your organs of detoxification operating efficiently and aid your body’s ability to take up minerals and nutrients from your diet to keep you healthy.

There are more than thirty officially recognised symptoms of menopause and perimenopause. These include: hot flushes, poor concentration, mood swings, night sweats, low libido, insomnia, brittle nails, hair loss, incontinence, bloating, fatigue, memory loss, anxiety, depression, weight gain, osteoporosis, constipation, vaginal dryness, headaches, itchy skin, excess hair, joint pain and other symptoms.

Menopause is multi-faceted and needs a holistic approach to really make a difference. More and more women are opting for natural, holistic solutions such as homeopathy, instead of HRT.

Nicola specialises in women’s health and has supported many women through wide ranging symptoms of perimenopause, as well as post-menopause. She offers a space to talk openly and in confidence.

Through detailed, sensitive case-taking Nicola will explore your full health history, with particular focus on your hormonal history from your first period until now. You will receive an individualised homeopathic prescription tailored to your personal needs, plus natural health, nutrition and lifestyle recommendations to support you. Your progress will be reviewed at the follow-up appointment.
