PERIMENOPAUSE
In the years preceding menopause many women suffer similar
symptoms to PMS such as water retention and breast swelling,
irregular cycle and mood swings as well as heavy bleeding
and hot flushes and sweats and sometimes cravings for sweet
food. These can be signals of hormonal imbalance where oestrogen
levels are disproportionately high. HRT drugs containing
even more oestrogen will only worsen the problem. As in
PMS the symptoms can be alleviated by natural progesterone
therapy. Nutritional supplements and a well balanced diet
and exercise can also help rectify hormonal imbalance.
