About Menopause
At Neurogenics Menopause Clinic, we appreciate the full range of physical and brain related symptoms that can occur at this crucial time in a woman's life. From menopause marks the end of a woman's reproductive years, typically occurring in the late 40s to early 50s. It's characterised by the cessation of menstruation due to the decline in ovarian function and hormone production, specifically estrogen and progesterone. This hormonal shift can lead to various symptoms, commonly including hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, sleep disturbances, and vaginal dryness. Additionally, women may experience decreased bone density (osteoporosis), changes in cholesterol levels, and altered metabolism, which can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. The severity and combination of these symptoms vary significantly among individuals.
The Adrenals and Menopause
The adrenal glands play a crucial role during menopause, compensating for the ovaries' decreased hormone production by secreting estrogen and androgens, thus influencing menopause symptoms and overall health. Their function underscores the complexity of hormonal balance in women's health.
The Thyroid and Menopause
The thyroid gland's function can intersect with menopausal changes, potentially complicating symptoms like mood swings, weight fluctuations, and fatigue. Thyroid disorders can mimic or exacerbate menopause symptoms, highlighting the importance of monitoring thyroid health during the menopausal transition.
Blood Sugar and Menopause
Menopause can impact blood sugar balance due to hormonal fluctuations, particularly decreasing estrogen levels, which may affect insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. This can increase the risk of developing insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in postmenopausal women.
Estrogen and Menopause
During menopause, estrogen levels significantly decline, leading to various symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and vaginal dryness. This hormonal shift affects bone density, heart health, and skin elasticity, marking a critical transition in women's health and well-being.

Menopause
And Your Brain
Menopause can impact brain health, with estrogen decline linked to memory loss and an increased risk of dementia. Estrogen plays a key role in cognitive function; its reduction during menopause may affect brain activity, memory recall, and concentration, emphasizing the need for strategies to support brain health in this phase.
