3 Common Menopause Symptoms and How to Beat Them
Hot Flashes
- Pay attention to (and avoid) your triggers. Common triggers include caffeine, stress and spicy foods.
- Take deep slow breaths when you feel a flash coming on.
Trouble Sleeping
- Stay active during the day, but avoid exercise right before bed.
- Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
- Only use your bed for sleep and sex (not watching TV or scrolling through social media).
Mood Swings
- Take care of both your mind and body.
- Exercise and eat well.
- Find support from other women who are having a similar experience.
- If you can’t seem to shake the blues, talk to a doctor, who can help diagnose and treat depression, if necessary.
