It`s a natural phenomenon, end of the reproductive years you are “around menopause” and the body is making natural transition to menopause. Irregular menstrual cycle is a normal process just be with it.
The level of Estrogen (female harmone)- in your body rises & falls unevenly so so your menstrual cycles may lenghten and shorten.
In 6-12 months you will be absolutely fine. This is a difficult time for your family too (mood swings uff)
*Yoga, meditation/ breathwork can help to keep you calm
*calming teas are helpful
*Vitamin D top-up is important.
*Dong quai is my absolute favourite herb, a remedy from traditional chinese medicines. You can use the root of this plant as a tincture/extract/ as a tea.
*Switching to a whole plant-based diet really helps in the smooth closingm of this stage.
Early menopause, in your case, is at which case?
It’s a natural process. Most women begin menopause from 45-55 years. Its okay if it starts before or around that time. Its genetic as well.
Dong Quai herb (Chinese herb) is very potent for irregular periods.
Boil the roots of this herb & make a tea & drink every day. You can get its supplement capsules also (Nature’s way brand is good)
1tbs of soaked Garden cress seeds are safe for pregnant women. Moderation is key. Please ask your doctor before starting to eat regularly
Dong Quia is my fact herb for the period problems. Take 1000 mg tablet-2 times a day or have crude root extract devotion 8-10g per day. Continue for more than 3 months to see the results
Are you planning a baby? In general, there is no harm in continuing your folic acid supplement during the periods. If there are problems in periods in that case we need to look deeper. Please either consult with a gynecologist or DM ME WITH OTHER DETAILS
I have stopped using a microwave oven, plastic containers, aluminum utensils, and foil more than six
years ago.
Traditional methods of cooking are the best.
The use of Microwave ovens is a highly controversial topic.
All I can say is that it's not safe to use Microwave ovens, and YES. It can impact human hormones.
