Menopause Is Natural ... So Is The Solution!

In August 2002, the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) stopped their hormone replacement therapy (HRT) study because of the therapy’s damaging effects. Results showed that HRT, taken even for only five years, doubles a woman’s risk of breast cancer(8).

Now, according to a task force of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), 25% of the women who stopped HRT are returning to it. These women have been told that HRT can harm or kill them, and they are still going back to it, but why?

The reason could be because women feel like they have only two options: Suffer now with menopausal symptoms, or suffer later with cancer. Not to worry. Zwell has developed a proven, safe, naturally sourced way to relieve menopausal symptoms. 

Effects Of Menopause

According to population projections by the government of Canada, 1 in 6 women (a total of 2.4 million women) will hit menopause within the next decade.(2) Menopause can begin as early as age 40 with less frequent, irregular reproductive cycles (perimenopause), and typically begins to affect more women in their 50s.

This natural and inevitable transition is experienced differently from woman to woman, as some will experience few or no negative side effects, and others will suffer with a range of disruptive symptoms which vary in severity and duration. Some of the most common symptoms of menopause include hot flashes, headaches, sleep disruption, vaginal dryness, frequent bladder infections, weight gain, forgetfulness and the inability to concentrate.

Factors That Contribute To Discomforting Menopausal Symptoms

In order to discuss solutions to these symptoms in any meaningful way, we must remember that all symptoms are the expression of an imbalance in the body.  Change is natural, but many factors conspire over the course of a woman’s life to throw her delicate hormonal balance off, resulting in an imbalanced transition that brings unpleasant symptoms with it.

In order to relieve symptoms we must look at the root causes of imbalance, and provide the body with tools to naturally realign its self in order to experience new and different hormone levels in a healthy, balanced way. Although declining estrogen levels have gotten all the attention in recent decades, a balanced menopause experience takes the levels of all hormones into account, including progesterone, DHEA and testosterone. One must consider their relationship to each other and their appropriate levels for a woman’s stage of life.

Although hormone levels will naturally change in the latter years of women’s lives, they can still remain appropriately balanced through good dietary choices, proper supplementation, and regular exercise, scientifically proven botanical extracts and, when necessary, bioidentical hormones – those compounds that exactly match the ones produced naturally in the body.

Understanding The Risks Of HRT

In August 2002, the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) stopped their hormone replacement therapy (HRT) study because of the therapy’s damaging effects. Results showed that HRT, taken even for only five years, doubles a woman’s risk of breast cancer(8).  Now, according to a recent study conducted by a task force of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), 25% of the women who stopped HRT are returning to it. These women have been told that HRT can harm or kill them, and they are still going back to it, but why?

The reason could be because women feel like they have only two options: suffer now with menopausal symptoms, or suffer later with cancer.

As women’s hormone levels decrease, their risk of several degenerative diseases increases, including risk of Alzheimer’s, osteoporosis, CVD (cardiovascular disease) and cancer.(3) In an effort to mitigate these risks, conventional medicine sought to replace women’s naturally declining estrogens with synthetic substitutions.  Conventional HRT makes use of non-bioidentical hormones that differ chemically from those naturally produced by a woman’s body. Furthermore, the relative levels of the female hormones administered in conventional HRT are also different.(4)

To fully appreciate the complexity of HRT, it is important to understand the various forms of estrogen and their effects in the body. More than 15 forms of estrogen naturally created in a woman’s body have been identified(6) .This includes estrone, estradiol, and estriol.  Each of these estrogens has a particular function.

While you might assume typical HRT was designed to restore balance, in truth there has been a different goal: to restore youth, even though it is unnatural for the body of a 50-year-old woman, who is no longer meant to bear children, to deal with hormone levels that are out of sync with her stage of life.

Another major problem with conventional HRT is the ratio of estrogens. Specifically, an approximate ratio of estrogens in Premarin® is about 75% estrone, up to 15% equilin (a potent horse estrogen), estradiol, and at least two other equine estrogens. These are substantially different from the ratios observed naturally in a woman’s body(7).

Conjugated equine estrogen (CEE), as the name implies, is obtained from the urine of pregnant mares (horses)(5). CEE is usually given in combination with progestin, a chemical compound modified for the purpose of appearing structurally similar to natural, bioidentical progesterone, but which, in fact, is not the same. Keeping progesterone levels in proper ratio to estrogens is equally as important as “topping up” declining estrogen levels during menopause. In a healthy young woman, progesterone serves as a counterweight to estrogen. The structural differences between conjugated equine estrogens and chemical progestins and the hormones women’s bodies produce naturally, and unnatural ratios, explain many of the adverse effects associated with conventional HRT.

The importance of balance cannot be over-stated. If HRT is required, use the lowest possible amount for the shortest possible time to achieve results, and choose bioidentical hormones over synthetic whenever possible.

Nature’s Medicine

Since conventional medicine is still lacking a safe, effective treatment for menopausal symptoms, many women are turning to natural remedies for relief.

Black Cohosh and its effectiveness.

Used extensively in Europe for helping to relieve hot flashes, black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) is an herbal remedy derived from a plant that is native to North America and is a member of the buttercup family. However, a clinical research conducted by Mayo Clinic reveals new data showing that black cohosh, does not reduce hot flashes in women any better than a placebo(6). The double blind, randomized study involved 132 women divided into two groups.  One group took black cohosh pills for one four-week period and then a placebo for one four-week period. The other group took a placebo during the first four weeks, followed by the black cohosh. The results showed that 34 percent of patients preferred the black cohosh, 38 percent preferred placebo and 28 percent did not prefer either(6).   Clearly, women are not going to find the solution here.
