Details Regarding Menopause And Slow Metabolism

By Daphne Bowen


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 process of the body that occurs naturally in women. Still, it comes with symptoms that many consider unfavorable. Every woman has a different experience related to menopause, but there are certain signs that are common in most during this time in life.

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.

Not all of these symptoms will be good. Many will struggle with hot flashes, emotional problems and a host of other physical issues because of this. It might also be difficult for them to manage their mental health, as many report feelings of loss, anxiety and sadness during this time.

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.

There are many ways that a slower metabolism can impact a woman. Metabolism is defined as the bodily process in which food and drink consumed is turned to energy. Even when the body resists, it is necessary for it to have energy to carry out processes like cell repair, breathing and circulation of blood. The amount of calories necessary for proper function of the body is known as basal metabolic rate and may differ based on age, body size and composition, and sex.

Menopausal patients might note that they have trouble losing weight and easily gain it. The pounds might add up, even if their diet has not changed. Usually the extra weight focuses in areas where it was never before, which is often the midsection for women. Cracked skin, cellulite, intense sugar cravings and dry hair are other signs of a slow metabolism and menopause.

Working closely with a doctor is encouraged for menopausal patients. Preventative care involves breast exams, thyroid tests, pelvic exams, colonoscopy, lipid screenings and mammography. It is important that these women have all of the vitamins and minerals they need to reduce symptoms, including the weight gain. Regular exercise, a balanced diet and stress management may also help with regulating metabolism during this time.
