Many women spend years with hot flashes, interrupted nights and mood changes thinking \u201cthat's just age.\u201d Understanding what's happening in your body helps you make better decisions and ask for the support you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perimenopause, menopause and the climacteric<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>climacteric<\/strong> is the hormonal transition that usually occurs between ages 40 and 55. It includes <strong>perimenopause<\/strong>, the years before when the cycle starts to change, and <strong>menopause<\/strong>, which is confirmed after 12 consecutive months without a period. During this stage, estrogen and progesterone production declines gradually and irregularly, and this shows up in several systems of the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some common signs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hot flashes and night sweats.<\/li><li>Trouble sleeping or waking up in the early morning hours.<\/li><li>Irritability, anxiety or sadness without a clear cause.<\/li><li>Changes in libido and vaginal dryness.<\/li><li>Fatigue, forgetfulness and changes in body composition.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why hot flashes happen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hypothalamus, the area of the brain that regulates temperature, becomes more sensitive when estrogen levels drop. Sometimes it interprets that there's excess heat even when there isn't and triggers mechanisms to cool you down: heat rises to your face and chest, your skin flushes and sweating begins. When it happens at night, it interrupts sleep, and the next day you notice it in your energy and mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sleep, mood and energy: it's all connected<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sex hormones also influence melatonin, the sleep hormone, and cortisol, the stress hormone. That's why many women sleep worse even when they keep their usual routine. On top of that, hormonal fluctuations affect neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, which play a role in mood. Sleeping poorly, feeling more irritable and feeling low on energy often go hand in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Habits that help you in this stage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Sleep hygiene:<\/strong> go to bed and wake up at the same time, avoid screens an hour before bed and keep your bedroom cool.<\/li><li><strong>Avoid stimulants in the afternoon:<\/strong> caffeine, alcohol and refined sugars after noon can worsen rest and hot flashes.<\/li><li><strong>Good-quality protein<\/strong> at every meal, to protect your muscle mass.<\/li><li><strong>Move every day:<\/strong> walking, swimming, dancing, yoga or strength training support circulation, mood and bone health.<\/li><li><strong>Breathing and breaks:<\/strong> 5 to 10 minutes a day of deep breathing or journaling help you regulate tension.<\/li><li><strong>Talk about what you feel<\/strong> with other women going through this stage; normalizing the conversation lightens the load.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Aurah's MENO can support you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aurahpharma.com\/en\/productos\/meno\/\">MENO<\/a> is an Aurah formula without synthetic hormones, made at Farmacias Magistrales, to support you through perimenopause and menopause.
