Menopause: how to alleviate symptoms with stones?

Menopause is not an illness but a natural phenomenon that occurs in women around the age of 50.

The period of menopause is characterized by the cessation of production by the ovaries of the reproductive hormones , estrogen and progesterone .

There are two stages in menopause: pre-menopause , which lasts several years, marked by the occurrence of irregular periods , and confirmed menopause , which follows it, characterized by a total interruption of menstrual cycles.

We speak of menopause when a woman has no longer had menstruation (amenorrhea) for twelve consecutive months . The diagnosis is confirmed by hormonal assays.

Menopause is the cause of disorders linked to estrogen deficiency. They are called “climateric” disorders: they refer to the endocrine, physical and psychological changes that occur during this period.

Stopping the production of reproductive hormones significantly increases the risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease . This is why, according to very specific criteria, certain women may resort to menopausal hormonal treatment (THM).

In this article, we will discover which lithotherapy stones and crystals are recommended to alleviate the unpleasant symptoms of menopause.
