Menopause is a natural transition, but its symptoms can be disruptive. While conventional medicine offers
solutions, many women seek alternative and holistic approaches to manage their well‐being. At MENONEXT,
we empower you with evidence‐based alternative care strategies tailored to your unique needs.

SIFTING THROUGH CONFLICTING STATEMENTS Whether you are undergoing the variety of disruptive symptoms of menopause or are facing the barrel of that age range, it is important to take note of HOW to discern what information applies to you. In this age of information overload, there isn’t a symptom or question you can’t look up using a search engine or scrolling through various social media sites or chatrooms. With so much information available, it is easy to become overwhelmed. While getting different opinions from various healthcare practitioners can help, it can sometimes lead to more confusion for women as they try to patch together different opinions and recommendations without really getting to the core of what they need to support their health in the way that makes sense for them. This leads to a core set of questions that I hear repeatedly from my patients and clients about how to be more proactive, what do tests results really mean, and what sources can they trust?

Functional Medicine: Addressing Root Causes
Functional medicine takes a comprehensive approach, identifying underlying imbalances rather than just
treating symptoms. By evaluating hormone levels, gut health, and lifestyle factors, functional medicine
practitioners develop personalized plans to restore balance and improve overall well‐being.

Herbal Remedies: Nature’s Support System
Herbal medicine has long been used to support hormonal transitions. Adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha
and maca may help regulate stress and energy levels, while black cohosh and red clover are known for their
potential in managing hot flashes and mood swings. MENONEXT provides curated resources and expert
guidance on safe, effective herbal solution

Nutrition‐Based Support: Fueling Your Body for Balance
What you eat plays a critical role in managing menopause symptoms. A diet rich in phytoestrogens (found in
flaxseeds and soy), anti‐inflammatory foods, and essential nutrients like vitamin D and magnesium can ease
the transition. Our resources and expert recommendations help you craft a nutrition plan that supports
hormonal harmony.

Understanding Endocrine Health in Menopause
The endocrine system plays a vital role in regulating hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. As menopause approaches, hormone levels fluctuate and eventually decline, leading to symptoms such as hot flashes, mood changes, fatigue, and metabolic shifts. An endocrinologist specializes in evaluating these hormonal imbalances and their impact on your overall well‐being. (See our complete section on Clinical Care and Endocrine Health)
