Did you know that 1 in 3 women in the UK are currently experiencing the symptoms of menopause?โ โ It's our duty as coaches, personal trainers, and fitness professionals to be able to offer support to our clients experiencing these symptomsโ โ From these topics, we want to emphasise how this affects every aspect of your healthโ : 1. Importance of Nutrition Proper nutrition is vital for women experiencing menopause, helping manage symptoms and improve overall health. There is an evident connection between diet and hormonal balance. 2. Perimenopause Transition Many women enter perimenopause in their early 40s, experiencing hormonal fluctuations that can lead to physical and emotional challenges. This transitional phase requires awareness and proactive health strategies. 3. Functional Testing Utilising functional testing can reveal underlying hormonal imbalances that may not be apparent through symptoms alone. With the results of functional testing, you can provide tailored treatment plans for your clients. 4. Menopause Phases There are three phases of menopause: perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause. You must understand these phases when helping your client navigate their health journey and prepare for changes in their bodies. 5. Mental Health Impact The anxiety and cognitive challenges during perimenopause, such as brain fog, highlight the need for mental health support alongside physical health strategies. The support of a personal trainer should not stop at physical health - the mental health of your client also needs to be considered, especially so at such a challenging time of change. 6. Empowerment Through Exercise Engaging in exercise helps mitigate menopausal symptoms, empowering women to take charge of their health. Helping your clients to achieve their fitness goals whilst experiencing menopausal symptoms has an all-round positive impact on health and well-being (mentally and physically). - Checkout our latest YouTube video on the impact of menopause on Women's health: https://lnkd.in/ek77hid4 - #creatept #fitness #becomeapt #menopause #womenshealth

โ๏ธHormone therapy (HT) may be effective at managing depressive symptoms associated with menopause, according to a recent study published inย Menopause, the journal of The Menopause Society. ย ๐โ๏ธAccording to NPR, a significant number of women โ about 18% among women in early perimenopause and 38% in late perimenopause โ experience signs of depression during this transition. ย โ๏ธThe study found that 62% of the women studied at a menopause clinic had signs of depression, which may have a significant impact on their quality of life โ๏ธResearchers showed a beneficial effect of menopause hormone therapy (MHT) on mood symptoms during menopause when used alone and a synergistic effect when used in combination with antidepressants. MHT impacts neurotransmitter-receptor pathways involved in mood regulation. โ๏ธNot only do the hormone fluctuations during menopause contribute to depression, but other menopause symptoms such as poor sleep and life changes in mid-life (aging parents, kids leaving home, and career pressures) can make one more likely to be depressed. Those with a history of depression or other mental illnesses are particularly sensitive to hormonal fluctuations. ย https://lnkd.in/gUtmc_ua) ย #MentalHealth #Depression #DepressionHelp #HormoneTherapy #HRT #Menopause #MenopauseSymptoms #MenopauseHealthย #MenopauseAwareness #MenopauseSupport #MenopauseRelief #Menowar #AllisonLewin #Menowarย Menopause Experts Group Limited

What is HRT? HRT is Hormone Replacement Therapy. It does exactly what it says on the tin - it replaces the hormones (estrogen) that women lose through menopause. There are 2 types of HRT: Estrogen only and Combined. I will go into detail about these in further posts but essentially estrogen-only HRT is used if you have had a hysterectomy. If not, then you will be prescribed progestogen to take alongside or the combined HRT. You can get body-identical or bio-identical HRT. Body-identical is regulated, can be prescribed by the NHS, and is deemed safer as it is tested, researched, and strictly regulated*. Bio-identical is not prescribed by the NHS (tends to be advertised in private clinics), safety levels are unknown and there is no evidence-based effectiveness* * Menopause Support Coaching Certificate training, Adele Johnston #unpaused #unpausedbox #menopausesymptoms #menopausesupport #unpausedboxtreather #unpausedboxtreatyou ---------------------------------- My name is Sam and Iโm a certified menopause support coach.

Founder and CEO Menopause Knowledge CIC. 25+ years in project management. Driven to nurture a sustainable and impactful social economy.
It's all over the news and social media today. But isn't this missing the point yet again???? Isn't it yet again the government and the NHS shifting their responsibilities somewhere else, instead of sorting out the primary and secondary care system and taking women's health seriously? It's all very nice to hear that employers have a responsibility of care for their employees, whatever their health situation. And I know how much reasonable adjustments can make a huge difference when facing a heath challenge of any type. BUT THIS IS MISSING THE POINT We need early intervention and prevention rather than shiny sticky plasters! ๐๐ปTrain GPs and primary and secondary care professionals so that they provide the RIGHT advice and treatments EARLY ๐๐ปTrain them so they diagnose peri and post menopause health issues quickly ๐๐ป Make access to today's body identical HRT easy and free instead of waiting until those who need it derail to support them ๐๐ป Signpost women early in life to the benefits of stress management, nutrition, physical activity, so that menopause symptoms are lessened or avoided But don't make it the sole responsibility of employers. 'Reasonable Adjustments' are nothing but fancy sticky plasters if what you need is a holistic approach to menopause with individualised care and choices on and availability of HRT, complementary medicine and therapies, and lifestyle options. For so many women, and the vast majority in my view and experience, with HRT and lifestyle adjustments, we can minimise the use and need of these shine sticky plasters and continue working with minimal impact and short term adjustments. Your thoughts?
