Menopause Healthy Living

Is there an association between menopause and healthy living?

In Looking After Yourself the (Australian) Jean Hailes for Women’s Health (JH) note:

“During menopause, it’s important to look after yourself. Healthy lifestyle choices will help to improve physical and emotional symptoms at every stage of menopause”.2

On page three in The Menopause: What Can Be Done? Lifestyle Factors the (British) Women’s Health Concern (WHC) elaborate on:


Menopause Health Living
“A healthy lifestyle can minimize the effects of the menopause, helping to keep the heart and bones strong. Many women feel that this is a good time to review the way they treat their body. Here are some tips to consider:

  • Chew over your diet…
  • Keep on your feet…
  • Stop smoking…
  • Drink within reason…
  • Make use of health screening services…
  • Stay calm and positive…”.3

Health Care Provider

What if I would like help with healthy living?

If you would like help with healthy living, it may be in your best interest to choose to talk to your health care provider about this.

On page two of Menopause: What Can You Do To Help With Menopause? the JH explain:

“Depending on your symptoms, you can also see a specialist. For example, a gynaecologist, psychologist, endocrinologist or dietitian”.4

The WHC also note:

“Some women breeze through a problem-free menopause, but most experience some symptoms ranging from mild to severe. If you feel that you are struggling, advice and support is widely available. The important thing is to be aware of any changes and to consult your GP for advice. Whatever the symptoms, help is available in a range of ways.

Above all, bear in mind that your health is your responsibility and that you are in charge. This is a time when your body deserves some tender loving care”.5

Who is a GP?
