Inflammation and Menopause
🌸 Inflammation & Menopause: What You Need to Know 🌸 I often discuss inflammation with my patients because it's at the core of many chronic illnesses.
Did you know it can also worsen perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms?
🌸 Estrogen Decline & Inflammation Menopause can lead to increased inflammation due to declining estrogen levels. If you already experience inflammation before menopause, your inflammatory symptoms may intensify.
🌸 Fat Accumulation Estrogen decline can promote adipose tissue (fat) accumulation, which contributes to inflammation. This can make managing symptoms more challenging.

Bloating, headaches, joint pain, muscle pain, anxiety, stress, heart disease, arthritis
