The hormonal changes during the menopause put tremendous strain on the body, and this often leads to fatigue.
It is very important to look after yourself well during this time, and to make sure that your nutritional needs are being met.
Check your diet and make sure that you are eating a good, varied diet with plenty of fresh foods and lots of water - dehydration can cause fatigue, and if you are getting hot flushes then it's doubly important to keep drinking!
Rest and relaxation are vital and I know it can be very difficult if you lead a busy life but do make 30 minutes a day your me-time. This can reduce symptoms very quickly!
To help correct the underlying hormone imbalance during menopause which causes fatigue, Menopause Support can help support you during this time. Our Menopause Support contains an extract of soya isoflavones which helps to gently balance oestrogen levels, plus, with the addition of some magnesium, this remedy can help to protect against both physical and mental fatigue.
However, these symptoms can also be caused by other factors such as low iron, or low thyroid, so it would be a good idea to ask your doctor to test for these just to rule them out.
