At some stage in life, women are expected to go through menopause. This is the medical terminology used to describe the months that follow the final menstrual cycle. It is the last stage of the female reproductive system and often occurs in women who fall between the ages of 40s and 50s. There is no exact age in which this is expected to begin, but there are certain signs that can indicate that it has started. Menopause and slow metabolism often go hand in hand. Many women may gain weight during this stage in life because of the slowed metabolism and all other symptoms associated with menopause.
This is a biological and natural process. It will occur in women who are healthy and of age. This experience will differ by person and many factors. Certain signs, some which are not favorable, will indicate that this stage in life has begun.
Menopause represents the end of fertility. However, this does not mean a woman cannot remain vital, healthy and sexual in the years that follow. Some happily accept the process, enjoying the absence of period and pregnancy concerns.
Symptoms that may arise because of this are not always favorable. Many women experience emotional struggles and hot flashes during this period. They might struggle to manage their emotions, especially feelings of anxiety, sadness and loss.
Women are expected to respond in different ways to this bodily process. Most will go through a stage known as perimenopause. This refers tot the time, be it months or years, leading up to the onset of menopause. Symptoms and signs associated with these stages of life: irregular periods, difficulty sleeping, weight gain, thinning hair, loss of fullness in the breast, dry skin, night sweats, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, slow metabolism and mood changes. Many experience more than one of these symptoms.
Slow metabolism can effect a woman in many ways. Metabolism is the term used when describing the process in which humans convert food and drink to energy. Even while the body rests, it requires energy to circulate blood, breathe and repair the cells. The total calories needed for normal bodily function is referred to as basal metabolic rate. Factors that might change this rate include sex, composition and size of body, and age.
Menopausal women with slow metabolism may find that they can gain weight more easily than losing it. They might notice that no matter how often or hard they exercise, it is difficult to shed pounds. The pounds usually pack on, even if they do not seem be consuming more. Usually the fat shows up in places where it was never before, which is often the midsection. Women may also have bad sugar cravings, cellulite, cracked heels, dry hair and the other symptoms that develop in menopausal women.
Women going through this are encouraged to work closely with doctors. These professionals will ensure that preventative care is given to those in need, including pelvic exams, colonoscopy, mammography, thyroid tests and breast exams. Symptoms of this, including weight gain, may be better managed by those who have the adequate amount of vitamins and minerals in their system. Managing stress, regularly exercising and maintaining a balanced diet will also be of benefit.
