All women go through menopause at one time in their lives. It’s fair to say that the experience can be confusing and scary. Worse still is that we are all too often afraid to question our doctors. After all, we’re raised to believe that doctor knows best. Doctors also have a habit of thinking we understand all of their medical talk and diagnosis. It’s important to be prepared to ask your doctor all of the questions you have about menopause. Here are a collection of questions to get the conversation rolling and questions you might not have thought to ask.
1.Could my symptoms be something other than menopause? - Depending on your age and other factors your symptoms could be the cause of some other illnesses.
2.What medications should I consider?
3.What are the advantages of hormone therapy and what are the side effects?
4.What are the advantages and side effects of herbal remedies?
5.Should I undergo bone density screening to fight osteoporosis?
6.What kind of exercise plan should I be doing?
These questions will help get you comfortable with the topic. They will also help open the door to any other, more individual questions you might have. An open, honest level of communication with your doctor is very important. Be sure that you are comfortable talking to your doctor and you feel you are getting compassionate one on one care.
Don’t let embarrassment or shame keep you from taking care of yourself. No matter your question, your doctor has heard it all before. No one knows your body better than you do, and it is important that you take care of yourself! Make an appointment to see your doctor today and stop the stress and worry over your menopausal symptoms. You will be glad you did.
Don’t let menopause scare you! Take control and find out how to live a healthy and active lifestyle during menopause!
Nothing can replace the treatment of exercise. Exercise has the proven ability to prevent and treat a wide range of ailments. Regular physical activity can accelerate the body’s natural healing process. It also lowers blood pressure and cholesterol and strengthens the heart muscles and thus significantly reduces the risk of heart disease.
Physical exercise lets you feel better because the body releases endorphins which trigger positive feelings. People who exercise regularly are less likely to suffer from depression and stress. It is also effective against hypertension, obesity, osteoporosis, diabetes and cancer. It can delay the effects of ageing and ward off the common cold.
The good news is that exercise is freely available to all who can move and it does not have to cost a thing. You do not have to join a gym, you do not have to buy expensive equipment and you do not even need to buy special clothes. Yes, all those extras can help to make it easier and you can get more motivated, but you can have a good workout in your garden every day, with the added benefit of a beautiful garden. You can take the dog to a field and run and play with him for an hour.
The question many people ask is: how much exercise is enough? It is suggested by professional trainers that you should get at least 20 minutes of non-stop, vigorous exercise for three days of the week, or 30 minutes of moderate exercise for 5 days of the week. Further good news is that you can break up that 30 minutes of exercise per day into three 10 minute sessions, and you do not have to do it all on a treadmill. The best will be to also do another exercise in every session to make sure you get a whole body workout. Do some cardio training in one session, weight training in the next session and cardio in the last session again.
You will soon start feeling better in your mind and body and you will be a step closer to your ideal body weight.

My family and I have recently gone through a big decision on whether to recesitate on my mother in case it had to be done. We were explained by one one of the social workers in the hospital that it would be to much trauma to my mother. My Dr. made the decision before surgery that she should not be recestiated if need be during surgery. But he did not tell us this until after the surgery was made. But we were upset that had had made that decision without consulting us. We had already informed the nurses that we did want it done. Can they do that? This was very hard for us because it is our mother. The social worker said she has had many experiences with the elderly. ( Has done CPR on many) She was Registered Nurse preveiously. She said that most of them would not survive. I will say my mom has Alzheimer’s, Diabetes, hyper tension, and Osteoporosis. They have said that if it was done her bones will break and maybe damage her internal organs. This hurts so much. Please help
One physician I know has completely given up on the idea of recommending improved diet and lifestyle. She feels that no patient will make the changes that are necessary to improve their health.
All of the following diseases could be nearly eradicated by improvements to diet and lifestyle (Ornish, McDougall, Barnard):
+ Heart Disease
+ Cancer
+ Diabetes
+ Osteoporosis
My extended family uses statins (with bad side effects) to reduce cholesterol rather than simply avoiding animal proteins that are rich in cholesterol. Does this make any sense?
Does your physician bother to suggest diet and lifestyle improvements, or simply write out a prescription and move on to the next patient?
Stephen: Your information on statins is not consistent with what I’ve read from Neal Barnard and Dean Ornish. The side effects of statins are significant according to Barnard and others. Some cholesterol is produced by the body, but most excess cholesterol in most people is from eating too much animal food product (including dairy). My cholesterol went down to optimal levels after going pure vegan.

I’m 15 years old with osteoporosis, osteogenesis imperfecta, a gluten allergy, and some unknown issue causing joint pain, me falling to ground involuntarily (not fainting), and inflammation. I’ve broken 16 bones. The doctors don’t know why I have any of the above.
Last Tuesday, I went to a hip specialist and he was basically my last hope for a MRI or treatment, as I just want to make sure it isn’t something serious like cancer. He totally didn’t listen to me and said it was my fault because my muscles were too weak becuase I wasn’t excercising. I told him when I was excercising it was the exact same. He just told me to wait six months and excerise as it was growing pains. I’ve had growing pains and these are nothing like them. The pain is isolated, not shooting down my legs.
I need a referrel from him to visit any of the other doctors because the rest of them are high up on the ladder, but he won’t. I’ve pretty much lost hope at this point and am still worried about what’s going on.
I’m a little bummed as I can’t do what a lot of kids do everyday: i.e. ride a bike, run, or play a sport. How can I stay strong and get through these years?
The doctor told me gluten doesn’t affect me and isn’t causing me pain.
It is about 5 months that I have come to Canada from Iran and after 1 month my fingers started aching ,every day more than the day before.now every morning my fist can hardly be opened ,and i always have pain in my fingers and my wrists ,and the pain goes up to my arms.
Last year I had 3% of osteoporosis but i often take calcium and vitamin D .
I used to work in many position , teacher ,secretary ,designer ,and now as a cook . ( for your information ) I am 35 years old .
what is happening to me ? everyday the pain is more and more .
I am not fat ,not thin,I have never had fast food in my life , I care about my diet very much .every day i eat lots of fruit and vegetables .
please if any doctor can guess what is going to happen to me !!
