Menopause is the last stage of a woman’s reproductive cycle. This does not come alone, but also brings along various changes in health, leading to ailments. One might feel free of the menstrual cycles every month, but the cost of it is really hefty for some.
Some females might find this phase easier, while others might call it the toughest time of their lives. The sudden blasts of unwanted emotions, irritability, and physical distress often need medical care. Modern medicines might offer relief from the symptoms, but can greatly affect the organs in the long term.
On the other hand, Ayurveda understands the body’s response to the medicinal help during the age of menopause, thus, it provides a safe assistance to women dealing with menopause. Calling it ‘Rajonivrutti’, Ayurveda defines the complications faced by women during menopause as an outcome of dosha imbalance, imbalance of Agni, and also the Dhatukashya.
Ayurveda helps women with alternatives to Modern Hormonal Therapies, which have adverse complications. With the help of Panchakarma, lifestyle changes, dietary plans, Shamana, and treatments like Shodhan Chikitsa, Ayurveda offers a holistic cure to the problems arising during this transitional phase.
Understanding the Menopause
Women’s divinity is reflected in their power to create a new life. The female reproductive system is not just scientific, but also sacred. Classified into various cycles, this heavenly gift of God faces several challenges.
Every reproductive stage in a female is associated with different physical and emotional changes. Before moving ahead, let’s talk about the major stages of the female reproductive system. It all starts with puberty, then comes the reproductive years, premenopause, and menopause.
Puberty marks the onset of the reproductive age. At the age of 10 - 15 years, a girl hits puberty, when the pituitary glands start oozing hormones like FSH and LH, which lead to the production of estrogen and eggs. Then comes the reproductive years in which the female system is ready to produce eggs, which the sperm can fertilize.
The duration of this period starts at late teens and ends at the age of mid 40s. In short, it's the time of carrying a pregnancy. After this is the premenopause, this phase stays in between late forty and early fifty. This is a time before menopause.
At this point in life, the estrogen level reduces, leading to improper menstruation and many body changes like hot flashes, disrupted sleep cycles, and mood swings. Last is the menopause, the time when the reproductive age finally comes to an end. By this time, the ovaries stop releasing eggs, no pregnancy takes place.
Complications Faced During Menopause
Menopause leads to various problems. Some of the issues faced by the majority of women at the menopause stage are as follows:
- Irregular Menstruation
- Dryness in Vagina
- GIT issues
- Hot Flash
- Appearance Changes
- UTI issues
- Various organ problems
- Heavy Bleeding
There are many more symptoms faced during menopause. However, the Ayurvedic treatment for menopause symptoms includes various therapies and herbal medication with no side effects.
Natural Treatment for Menopause
Ayurveda is like an authentic kitchen garden, having several magical herbs to treat almost every ailment. Similarly, for curing symptoms of menopause, this year-old medical system has tremendous remedies. The treatment in Ayurveda is a combination of various healing steps. These steps include diet corrections, lifestyle modifications, herbal remedies, and therapies.
Let’s discuss these essentials of holistic healing in detail:
- Correction in Diet: Ayurvedic treatment requires changes in diet to support natural healing. Our modern diet includes fast food, junk food, spicy food, and oily food. This affects our gut health, and the gut is the origin of any disorder. Furthermore, unhealthy diets also imbalance the doshas and prana, the vital energy of the body. To correct this imbalance, diet correction is a must. Menopause treatment includes a satvic diet that excludes refined sugar, excess caffeine, and processed food.
- Lifestyle: Another important aspect of holistic healing during menopause is lifestyle modification. A sedentary lifestyle often leads to hormonal imbalance, which is a major factor behind problems arising during menopause. Ayurvedic treatment involves changes, like including yoga and pranayama in the lifestyle of the patient. This helps with the best response to the Ayurvedic medicines. This helps in balancing the body’s natural rhythm.
- Herbal Remedies: Ayurveda uses authentic herbs to make formulations for treating the symptoms of menopause. Medicines like Ashoka and Shatavari are mostly used in the treatment of Menopause.
- Detox Therapies: Ayurvedic therapies are a major part of menopause treatment. Therapies like Shirodhara, Abhaynaga, Nasya, and Basti are used in detoxifying the body. Ayurveda works by flushing the toxins out of the body, thereby healing the body internally.
- Stress Management: Stress is a vital factor behind menopause. Extreme stress imbalances the hormones, leading to problems during menopause. With breathing techniques, Ayurveda helps in managing stress.
