Menopause is a natural part of a woman's life cycle and should be a time of joy, ease and even relief. For many female patients, however, this time of change is fraught with difficulty, discomfort, and disease.

Understanding the complex interplay between hormones during the menopausal years is vital if you want to help these patients manage their symptoms and age well. Medicinal herbs, good nutrition, and a healthy lifestyle all play a part in optimising endocrine function during menopause, and in supporting long-term health beyond these years.

This seminar can help you, as a Practitioner, better understand how to support and guide your menopausal patients so they can live their lives to the fullest and remain vibrant and healthy during these crucial years of transition.

Presented by Practitioners who specialise in female health, this seminar will bring together the best of current scientific research, and traditional knowledge on menopausal endocrinology, with proven clinical strategies for you to take back to your clinic. The focus will be on holistic treatment strategies for supporting total health during the peri-menopausal, menopausal, and post-menopausal years. Specifically this presentation will review:

•  How HPA axis dysregulation and adrenal depletion can exacerbate menopausal symptoms.

•  Signs and symptoms that can indicate thyroid dysfunction.

•  Understanding sex hormone test results and symptom patterns to better evaluate your patient.

•  Holistic treatment strategies to support optimal endocrine function during the menopausal transition.

• Herbal and nutritional strategies to address a range of menopausal symptoms including, hot flushes, night sweats, irritability, depression, insomnia, impaired memory, reduced cognitive function, fatigue, menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, reduced libido, weight gain, and osteopenia.

• Ongoing strategies you can use to support health and longevity in your post-menopausal patients.
