The Elegant Women

Is a woman who was going faster menopause disease and tired? At the time of menopause, women experience a condition in which sexual hormones (particularly estrogen and progesterone) which previously produced a no longer produced. The consequences of no longer produces these hormones is the occurrence of inflammatory diseases that are chronic, such as heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, Alzhaimer and autoimmune diseases.

Before menopause, estrogen levels in balance and inflammation / inflammation that occurs generally mediocre and basically body to function effectively to prevent the entry of germs harmful. This will gradually change with the cessation of estrogen production at menopause. Research shows, in women with low estrogen levels in menopausal women as a higher risk of occurrence of chronic inflammatory processes.

Some theories say to do is to lower estrogen production, causing weight gain, which means increasing the number of fat cells. Fat cells produce “protein cytokines” that are pro-inflammatory. With the growing number of fat cells then this cytokine proteins and also increases risk by more easily exposed to infections that are chronic.

The Signs and symptoms that accompany menopause:

1. Burning sensation on the face (suddenly hot and sweaty).
2. Headaches, forgetfulness, irritability.
3. Restless anxiety.
4. Palpitations.
5. Sleep disturbance, irritability, rapid fatigue.
6. The bones of pain, joint pain, spinal pain.
7. Tingling hands and feet.
8. The skin began to wrinkle, her hair began to fall.
9. Vaginal fluid production decreases and therefore pain during intercourse.
10. Disturbed sexual libido, disturbed concentration.
11. Less confident.
12. Increased cholesterol levels in the blood.

Thus, when compared with women who had menopausal, menopausal women are more susceptible to diseases such as heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, Alzhaimer, and autoimmune diseases. Would be tired? Because menopause usually experienced insomnia (difficulty sleeping), sweat, and heat at night, this will interfere with rest / sleep at night. Consequently during the day will being exhausted. Other causes can also be due to hormonal reactions that cause changes in metabolism. Prevention can be done is:

1. Eating nutritious foods that are naturally anti-inflammatory, such as whole grains, fruits, fish, dark green leafy vegetables, beans, and cooking with olive oil. Avoid consumption of foods containing trans-fat, like margarine.
2. Regular exercise, because regular exercise will reduce the amount of fat deposits.
3. Smoking, drinking alcohol and drugs should be avoided because they are pro-inflammatory and damaging healthy tissue.
4. Avoid stress, because stress can damage the body’s defense system.
5. Enough sleep will be very useful to prevent chronic inflammatory process. Although it looks there is a relationship between menopause with inflammatory processes, but this is certainly yet to be studied further to better prove the relationship.
