The importance of Homeopathy in maintaining Womans health during Menopause

 

 

 

 

Women play an important role in every humans life, as we have heard behind every successful man there is a woman. Health is a strong pillar for every home, city and nation. Woman’s health is an example of population health. It is very essential for woman to be strong and healthy, she has to play a lot of roles in her life which requires energy and good health.

 

A woman’s life consists of many milestones. The onset of first menstruation in life is called menarche. It occurs anywhere between the age of 10 years to 16 years and hormones play a vital role in womans life. The important hormones are growth hormones, estrogen and insulin.

 

MENOPAUSE is yet another milestone which means permanent cessation of menstruation at the end of the reproductive life due to the loss of ovarian follicular activity. It is also called the climacteric period. It is the phase of the aging process during which a women passes from the reproductive to non-reproductive stage, and marks the end of a womans fertility. The average age of menopause is from 47- 55 years.

 

During the menopause, the predominant hormone, estrogen, falls in its level. The lower reproductive hormones associated with menopause will increase the risk of osteoporosis (following menopause there is low density of bone mass due to the deficiency of estrogen), bone fractures and cardiovascular disease.
