Menopause is a natural biological process that affects every woman differently, but it inevitably brings significant changes that impact the skin, hair, mood, and overall wellbeing. Having a deeper understanding of menopause and how it manifests allows for more targeted treatments and supplements to support clients during this transition.
What is Menopause?
Menopause typically begins between the ages of 45 and 55, marking the end of a woman’s menstrual cycles due to decreased production of reproductive hormones—particularly oestrogen and progesterone. This hormonal shift doesn’t happen overnight. Instead, women undergo a series of stages, from perimenopause (the transitional phase) to post-menopause, where the body adjusts to lower hormone levels.
The reduced oestrogen levels directly affect collagen production, skin hydration, and elasticity, leading to increased dryness, fine lines, and a loss of firmness in the skin. Additionally, menopause impacts hair health, energy levels, mood, and cognitive function. Common symptoms include:
- Hot Flashes and Night Sweats
- Mood Swings and Anxiety
- Fatigue and Brain Fog
- Vaginal Dryness and Loss of Libido
- Joint and Muscle Pain
- Weight Gain
- Sleep Disturbances
Given the array of changes, managing these effects holistically can greatly improve quality of life. Integrating effective treatments and supplements specifically designed for menopause can make a significant difference in the way clients feel during this phase.
Proto-col’s Menorise and Menorest: Day & Night Menopause Support
Proto-col has developed a day and night support system with Menorise (daytime support) and Menorest (nighttime support). These two products offer a natural, non-invasive way to manage symptoms, focusing on key menopause concerns.
Menorise: Daytime Support
Designed to help women manage daytime symptoms, Menorise combines botanical extracts and natural compounds that support hormone balance, mood, and energy:
-
Soy Isoflavones: This plant-derived ingredient helps balance oestrogen levels, reducing the severity and frequency of hot flashes while also supporting memory and cognitive abilities.
-
Korean Ginseng: Ginseng boosts the body’s resilience to stress, improving concentration, and immune function. It can also help alleviate anxiety and hot flashes.
- Ashwagandha Root Extract: This adaptogenic herb helps alleviate stress-related symptoms, including mood swings, sleep disturbances, and sexual health concerns like low libido.
With this formulation, Menorise supports wellbeing throughout the day, helping alleviate stress, anxiety, and discomfort.
Menorest: Nighttime Support
Nighttime symptoms of menopause, such as night sweats, insomnia, and restlessness, can be particularly disruptive. Menorest helps manage these concerns with natural ingredients designed to improve sleep and relaxation:
-
Evening Primrose Oil: Known for its ability to reduce night sweats and improve skin hydration, evening primrose oil helps combat symptoms of hormonal imbalance.
-
Red Clover: Rich in isoflavones, red clover helps to reduce hot flashes and has been shown to support bone health, heart health, and vaginal dryness. It may also alleviate mood changes linked to menopause.
- Chamomile: A calming herb that promotes relaxation, chamomile helps ease insomnia, anxiety, and digestive issues. It’s ideal for improving sleep quality, which is often disrupted during menopause.
Together, these products provide comprehensive day and night support, allowing women to manage the most common symptoms of menopause holistically and naturally.
