Menopause Symptoms: Not One-Size Fits All

Menopause Symptoms: Not One-Size Fits All Near Me in Marietta, GA

This should come as no surprise, but the symptoms we experience as women leading into (perimenopause) and during menopause are not the same for everyone. Shocking, we know!

If you talk to your mom, sister, friends, or even a total stranger, there’s definitely going to be some similarities, but each and every woman has her own description and experience.  Sometimes it’s hard for us, as women, to decipher what’s happening. Could it be situational? Is it related to all the hats we wear on a daily basis? Maybe it’s stress? Of course, those can all affect our coping abilities…but (for the most part) we used to be able to juggle so much and now remembering simple information seems impossible.

If we had to categorize the symptoms into buckets, we would put a soft divider between each of the following:

  • Emotional & Mental Health: 
  • Sexual Dysfunction: Female sexual dysfunction is a multifaceted condition that can deeply affect a woman’s quality of life and personal relationships. Sexual health is a vital component of overall well-being, and it’s essential for women to feel confident and supported in addressing sexual concerns at any point in their lives.
  • Sleep Disturbances
  • Vasomotor Symptoms (hot flashes, flushes, night sweats) Hot flashes, a common symptom of menopause, can cause a sudden sensation of heat that spreads across the body, often leaving your cheeks feeling flushed. The intensity and duration of hot flashes vary from person to person—some women may experience them for only a short time, while others may deal with them for the rest of their lives. Following a hot flash, it’s also typical to feel chills as the body cools down and sweat evaporates.
  • Bladder Problems: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a widespread urinary condition that impacts millions of women around the world, often arising during key life stages such as post-childbirth, perimenopause, and menopause. It is defined by an intense and often uncontrollable urge to urinate, which can be accompanied by frequent trips to the bathroom throughout the day and night. In some cases, OAB may also lead to involuntary urine leakage, known as urgency incontinence.

The reality is most of these manifestations are intertwined with one another and create a snowball effect, which leads to symptoms in some cases so severe that some women are unable to complete their daily activities.

The good news is that there’s no reason to spend the last third of your life feeling less than your MOST. The options for improving your quality of life are very broad and extremely customizable. Often we, at Nore Health, are asked how much of a natural approach do we take. Our favorite response is that we are as natural as you would like us to be. Here’s the reality: our goal is to improve your quality of life. Traditional Western medicine is only one of the many avenues that we can travel to help achieve this goal.

We hope you are encouraged by our mission to help you “Be Your Most!” Contact us today to make an appointment and get your sexual health back on track.
