Overcoming February Fatigue with Super Supplement, Meno Active

For women, at any point in their menopausal journey (perimenopause, menopause, and post menopause) there are many changes that can be frustrating and alter everyday life. One change that impacts daily activities and quality of life is fatigue. During the transition to menopause, many women experience a persistent lack of energy or a feeling of exhaustion. Luckily, menopause fatigue can be managed in a number of ways.

Women’s Health Advocate – Dr. Fiona Barry PhD, owner of two female wellness clinics in Cork and a key member of the formulation team of Meno Active, commented: “The fatigue that women can suffer with during menopause can be quite severe. It often develops insidiously so many women attribute it to the busyness of life, and this can lead to them trying to push through and not to seek help or advice from their healthcare professional. If you find that you are struggling to get through the day or that tasks that used to be easy are suddenly really demanding, chances are you are experiencing perimenopausal or menopausal fatigue due to a shift in your hormones.” 

What Causes Fatigue During Menopause? 

Fatigue during perimenopause and menopause may be caused by a combination of factors. Changes in the levels of hormones like estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones, and adrenal hormones can make you feel extremely tired. That is because these hormones are involved in regulating cellular energy within the body. When these are out of balance, you may feel fatigued, for no discernible reason.

In addition, many perimenopausal and menopausal women experience sleep disruptions. Lack of sleep will obviously result in a feeling of tiredness or lack of energy.

According to an online survey that was conducted by Atomik Research among 1,007 women over the age of 35 who have started the perimenopause or menopause, 85% of women have experienced sleep issues through the perimenopause/menopause.

Managing Fatigue During Perimenopause and Menopause 

 

If you are exhausted due to perimenopause or menopause, then you can alleviate fatigue in several ways. There are lifestyle changes you can make to boost your energy as well as supplements available over the counter.

 

Get Exercise

One of the best ways to stay energized is to get regular physical activity. It can be hard to get started when you’re feeling fatigued but getting moderate or high-intensity exercise can result in higher energy levels. Exercise can also help mood and weight gain.. Try to choose things that are manageable and enjoyable. That way you will be more likely to stick to your workout routine and make it a habit.

Managing Your Stress Levels

Stress puts pressure on your endocrine system especially your adrenal glands. When we are stressed , it triggers our fight or flight response, causing the adrenal glands to produce adrenaline and cortisol in response. This is going to affect your ability to sleep, causing fatigue the next day, lead to weight gain if cortisol levels are sustained, affect, and cause a sensation of burn out and emotional and mental fatigue. According to research, 62% of women say they have experienced mood changes through perimenopause/menopause. Other ways women feel better when experiencing low mood is meeting with friends, going for walks, or treating themselves to something new.

Stick to A Routine

One of the most important things to do if your fatigue is caused by sleeplessness is to stick to a daily routine. This means going to bed and getting up at the same time each day, even on the weekends. Set aside time before bed each night to wind down by taking a bath, reading, or listening to relaxing music. Some people like to do short meditation to get themselves ready to go to sleep. Just make sure that TV or other screens are not part of your wind-down, as they have been linked to sleep disturbances.

Eat A Balanced Diet 

Eating a balanced diet is important to maintain a healthy weight. It is especially important during menopause as women need to balance blood sugar levels and make sure they are getting important vitamins and minerals. It is recommended that women at this stage of their lives adopt a more Mediterranean diet and include foods such as vegetables, herbs, spices, and some fruit. Eat fish, especially oily fish, legumes, and whole grains. Magnesium a mineral found in dark green, leafy vegetables, beans and pulses and salmon is nature’s relaxant and is often deficient in people’s diets. It can help support bone health and low mood during menopause. Magnesium can also be taken in supplement form and is included in Meno Active.

Supplements

While lifestyle and behavioural changes can help combat menopause fatigue, sometimes you need a bit more help. It is always more effective to gain vitamins and minerals from fresh food, but sometimes we need supplements.
