Homoeopathy for Menopause

Menopause usually occurs as the menstrual cycle, and with it, fertility ends. The average age at which this happens is normally around 51 years, but can occur as early as 40. For some women, this may be an asymptomatic process but for the majority, symptoms such as the vasodilatory 'hot flush' are common, with around 75% of women experiencing this symptom alone. Other symptoms that may be seen, and that may follow the menopause, include depression, insomnia, mood swings, irritability, poor concentration, sweating, night sweats, headaches, painful sexual intercourse, vaginitis, a reduction in libido, nausea, urinary incontinence, increased incidence of urinary tract infections, increased hair loss, dry skin and lethargy.
