60 seconds in menopause video transcript:
Why are your joints starting to ache in the perimenopause and menopause? This is such a common symptom, believe it or not! So many of you come to me worried about it. You've maybe been to the doctors, had everything checked out. There's nothing wrong, but you know you're in a lot of discomfort.
What can cause joint aches and pains in perimenopause and menopause?
The main reason is that oestrogen can affect your ligaments and tendons in the joints. It can affect your mobility. And, that can then lead to pain and stiffness.
What can help?
Dehydration can be a really big issue here, so remember to drink lots of plain water, every single day.
Fish oil supplement, or if you're vegetarian or vegan go with a flaxseed oil supplement. Gentle exercise to keep those joints mobile. And you can also try our Atrosan Devil's Claw tablets.
