Menopause: the transition doesn’t have to be an ordeal
The perimenopause (the 5-10 years prior to the last period) and menopause bring real changes to the body: progesterone drops first, followed by estradiol, and this affects sleep, mood, metabolism, body composition, bone health, libido, and cognitive ability.
The cultural message of “it’s just what happens, tough it out” is false: there are real tools — nutritional, lifestyle, stress management, and, when appropriate, hormonal under medical supervision — that radically change the quality of life during this stage.
Symptoms we address
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Insomnia and waking up at 3-4 AM
- Mood changes, new anxiety, irritability
- Increased abdominal fat and insulin resistance
- Loss of muscle mass and weakness
- Loss of libido, dryness, and urogenital discomfort
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
How we approach menopause from a PNI perspective
Nutritional plan with emphasis on sufficient protein (key for preserving muscle), phytoestrogens modulating symptoms, fiber, and polyphenols. Strategies for sleep and cortisol regulation. Adapted strength training (the best “medicine” for bones, metabolism, and mood during this stage). And a clear dialogue about when to refer to your gynecologist to evaluate hormone replacement therapy, which today is considered safe and effective in most well-selected women.
Health without barriers:
How do we work?
So that distance is not an obstacle, I offer you
two modalities with the same clinical rigor.
