It is purely normal physiology. There can be anxiety and depression, mood swings, fatigue, hot flushes, irritability, vaginal dryness, dysuria, headaches, palpitations, joint pains and aches, more facial hairs, and insomnia.

Considering joint health, even though normal arthralgia pain tends to increase with the age, sex hormones play a great role in the aggravation of musculoskeletal problems in women’s health. Fragile hips and loose joints are the main complaints. Estrogen also has a big role in cardioprotection. After menopause chances of stroke and heart diseases are high in the case of peri and post-menopausal women. Women with a disruptive lifestyle should go for regular screenings for heart and bone health. Prevention and supportive therapy is the best medicine to go with the musculoskeletal problems related to menopause. Quit alcohol and smoking; eat fiber-rich and nutritious food involving calcium and proteins. Avoid junk food, and reduce your salt intake. Have a good sunbath because vitamin D is very essential for you.

Cosmetically changes in the body contour, shape, and increasing wrinkles are yet other problems related to the change in hormones. Cognitive functions get altered and she may find difficulty in attention, memory span, and diminished capacity to accomplish newly learned multifaceted tasks. Due to reduced attention span, handling finances, shopping, and using transportation might become more difficult.

Eating good food rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids and DHA like fish, occupying yourself with a variety of social activities, and making a habit of doing cognitive exercises like reading, crosswords, and puzzles. Do brain exercises to improve memory and language skills. These all will help in the variations in serotonergic transmission which can have effects on memory tasks.

In Ayurveda, all these can be considered under Swabhavika or natural diseases. The cessation of menstruation for at least a complete year can be considered as the starting of the menopausal age.

In Ayurveda, it can also be of different types. If a very early cessation occurs it can be either because of hormones or a lack of proper measures taken care to look after the body. In this type of menopause special medications and therapies are very essential because they hinder the quality of life of women to a very big extent. Here Vata Dosha and rasa Dhatu can be considered as the main culprits. In normal age-related menopause, the reduction of Kapha and increase of Vata vrudhi occurs and ruksha property will be more predominant in the body leading to the symptoms.

In normal age-related menopause Pitta becomes the main culprit so depending upon the constitution of the person the Ayurvedic specialist will decide the herbs and treatment.
