Common Symptoms Of Menopause

Copyright (c) 2007 Al Short

Many women enter into menopause at different times of their life. Some experience a few of the symptoms while others can have more.

Hot flashes, flushes, night sweats and/or cold flashes, clammy feeling is most likely the most common sensation but, Irregular heart beat, irritability, mood swings, sudden tears, difficulty sleeping, irregular periods; shorter, lighter periods; heavier periods, phantom periods, shorter cycles and longer cycles often occur.

One of the most troubling symptoms is Loss of libido. However it is not limited to a drop in desire but also a dry vagina, crashing fatigue, anxiety, feelings of dread, apprehension, depression, difficulty concentrating, disorientation, mental confusion, memory lapses, incontinence upon sneezing, or laughing.

Women have also report having Itchy, crawly skin aching, sore joints, muscles, breast tenderness, headaches, gastrointestinal distress, indigestion, flatulence, nausea, bloating, increase in allergies weight gain, hair loss, but with an increase in facial hair. Many have experienced dizziness, light-headedness, tingling in the extremities, gum problems, increased bleeding, burning tongue, burning roof of mouth, bad taste in mouth, change in breath odor.

One of the biggest problems of menopause is Osteoporosis (porous bones).

A select few have noticed changes in fingernails: softer, crack or break easier. Tinnitus: ringing in ears, ‘whooshing,’ buzzing etc. Reason For Symptoms

Hot flashes are due to the hypothalamic response to declining ovarian estrogen production. The declining estrogen state induces hypophysiotropic neurons in the arcuate nucleas of the hypothalamus to release gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in a pulsatile fashion, which in turn stimulates release of luteinizing hormone (LH). Extremely high pulses of LH occur during the period of declining estrogen production. The LH has vasodilatory effects, which leads to flushing. Loss of libido for some women the loss is so great that they actually find sex repulsive, in much the same way as they felt before puberty. What hormones give, loss of hormones can take away. Aching sore joints may include such problems as carpal tunnel syndrome. Depression different from other depression, the inability to cope is overwhelming. There is a feeling of loss of self. Hormone therapy ameliorates the depression dramatically. Weight gain often around the waist and thighs, resulting in ‘the disappearing waistline’. Tingling in extremities can also be a symptom of B-12 deficiency, diabetes, alterations in the flexibility of blood vessels, or a depletion of potassium or calcium Tinnitus is one of those physical conditions that seems to manifest in some women at the same time as menopause. It can be associated with health conditions such as hypothyroidism and heart disease, and is a known side-effect of many medications, including aspirin (salicylates) and Prozac.

Can Xyience Supplements help me lose weight

I did a review Xyience to see what they had to offer in weight loss support. I really impressed with their product XLR8 Xelerate which based on the label was a really good weight loss diet pill. So I had to do some more research.

All the ingredients were all natural and I noticed that most of them were vitamins and minerals that support metabolic and thyriod functioning. Many of the weight issues with people are do to an improper thyroid production. Xelerate works be supporting the thermogenic effect of your metabolism to burn more energy and control your cravings.

I found a story of a women who lost over 50 pounds using Xelerate. The lady combined using Xyience Xelerate with a proper exercise and diet program and she lost a ton of weight.

The key with Xelerate or any weight loss diet pill is that when combined with proper exercise and nutrition they can support more weight loss.

Calotren Weight Loss with out Stimulants and Appetite Suppressants

How do we chose what is the right weight loss diet product for me and you? There are probably more choices for diet products than any other type of supplement. The best product that I have seen is Calotren.

Calotren is not a stimulant or an appetite suppressant. This is very important as Calotren doesn't effect your brain or your heart associated with these other diet pills.

This doesn't mean putting on muscle mass. What Calotren helps is your muscle's ability to burn energy which is the key to weight loss. Because Calotren doesn't use stimulant to burn more energy your weight loss is healthier and natural. Calotren also comes in a liquid weight loss formula.

How to start a weight loss program

How many times have we started, then stopped, then only to start again a new weight loss program? Each time saying this time is going to be different. Only to find out that 2 months later we are frustrated and quitting only to start the cycle over again in a few months. If this sounds like you then there is relief.

The key to successful weight loss occurs before you ever start. It comes down to three aspects. The first is setting the right type of goal, the second if professional support, and the third is understanding that to achieve weight loss it isn't about being perfect everyday.

Most people set a goal of how much weight they need to lose. This is typically why so many people don't achieve their goals. State a measurable goal about what you want the weight loss to do for you. Fitting into a swimsuit or fitting into a pair of jeans leads to more success. This way you are not so dependant on what the scale says each week. Also, as you lose fat and build lean muscle you can lose an inch and not lose a pound. This is so critical because in the end we want to look better than just have less of the scale.

We all want to do ourselves or think we should. The reality is that all successful people get coaches. Athletes get coaches, business people get business coaches, successful people understand the importance of getting experts to work with them. The different insight and a person who knows what it takes is invaluable for success. It doesn't have to cost a ton either as online personal training programs cost like $9.95.

The third is so critical. If you believe you have to be perfect which is impossible then you beat yourself up everytime you are off by a calorie. Successful weight loss is developing good habits. Not one thing you do one day will ever matter. It is what we do overall per month and months that makes a difference. Give yourself a break and start losing weight.

Liveleantoday.com Review

After hearing many people talking about how much they like using the online personal training services at Liveleantoday.com I had to go try it for myself. As a professional in the fitness business , it always takes a little more to impress me. I wanted to give Liveleantoday.com an honest look.

I was amazed at how user friendly and well put together the fitness and nutrition plans were. Both my nutrition plan and my strength plan were put together using real science not just ineffective hype. Also, it was the only program online that I know of that uses targeted heart rate training which is the best way to optimize your workouts for results.

I really thought the key was that I was able to interact with the online trainer and dietician which they then customized my workouts and were able to give me some feedback on things that I hadn't thought of yet. I have decided to stay with their program after my trial as I feel this gives me a new direction after all my years of working out.

I don't always talk about other sites so much though Liveleantoday.com I was impressed. I would recommend Liveleantoday.com for any one who wants to get into shape or lose weight.
