Menopause is a stage of a woman´s life, it´s not an illness, even though a great porcentage of cases involve a number of alterations which frecuently demand that women request for medical care.
Menopause is the step on a woman´s life, in which the periodic role of the ovaries and the menstrual period finish. Menopause starts after the last menstrual period. This fact, however, can be only confirmed, further on time, when no more menstrual fluid shows up for at least the next twelve months.
Long time ago, menopause was the stage more frightening by women, because it was associated to old age and, consequently to death. Nowdays, the average women can be expected to live more than thirty years, after being reached the menopause threshold , and even in some cases, that means “ the freedom”. The goal is that these three decades pass keeping the best quality of life.
A well balanced diet rich in calcium and regular practice of physical activity are a very good start to face this hormonal change as well as to prevent the loss of bone mass and the development of diseases.
During menopause a decrease on the level of hormones can appear, which can cause short way problems ( suffocations, irritability, insomnia, ..) or long way problems (osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, ..). Therefore, treatment is needed in many cases, in order to minimize such problems.
Apart from the possibility of the substitutive hormonal therapy (SHT) treatment, there is the choice of facing menopause with herbal plants rich in phytoestrogens, such as soya plant. An important number of epidemiological, pharmacological and clinical studies have been developed about the soya plant, whose results show the positive effects of soya phytoproducts, such as the considerable decrease in the number and intensity of the suffocations, as well as the cardiovascular protection shown, according to the improvement on blood lipid profile.
