What is menopause?
Menopause is a natural transition that every woman will experience at some point in her life.
It typically occurs around the ages of 45 - 55 in the west, and marks the end of a woman's reproductive years, as menopausal women are no longer able to get pregnant.
During menopause, hormone levels fluctuate, resulting in changes in the body and menopause symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and sleep disturbances.
Navigating menopause does not have to be a challenging experience. Here are five top tips for successfully navigating menopause:
1. Develop a menopause-friendly lifestyle
Making healthy changes to your diet and lifestyle can help to reduce menopausal symptoms. Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables, exercising regularly, getting enough sleep and reducing stress levels can all play an important role in menopause management.
2. Speak to your doctor
If menopausal symptoms are impacting your daily life, it's important to speak to your doctor about your menopausal experience. A doctor qualified in menopause can provide advice on menopause treatments and symptom relief to help you better manage your transition.
3. Seek support
Menopause can be an emotional time for some women. Seeking emotional support from family, friends or menopause coaching professionals can be a great way to cope with the changes menopause brings.

4. Make time for yourself
Self-care is an important part of menopause management. Make sure to take some time each day to focus on your mental health and wellbeing, whether that be through relaxation, exercise or stress relief activities such as yoga, meditation or reading.
5. Educate yourself
Learning about menopause and menopause symptoms can help you to better understand your menopausal experience. Talk to other women who have gone through menopause, research menopause treatments or join a menopause support group to get helpful tips and advice on menopause management.
By taking these tips into consideration, you can navigate menopause with the confidence and support you need.
