Menopause: how to maintain health and active mind after 45

Gynecologist Dr. Flávia Mambrini explains hormonal impacts and reveals strategies to preserve well -being and cognition

For years, taboos and disinformation have surrounded menopause. Today, this scenario has changed, guided by progress in medicine and the desire of many women to cross this phase with the quality of life. Understanding hormonal changes and adoption of personalized approaches can make a difference in physical, mental and emotional well -being.

Hormonal replacement: benefits in addition to the relief of symptoms

The fall of estrogen affects not only the menstrual cycle, but also the essential functions such as cognition, cardiovascular health and bone density. Despite the fears for hormonal replacement therapy (HRT), more recent studies show that, when well indicated and monitored, this approach can bring significant benefits.

“Estrogen protects the brain, heart and bones. In healthy women, which began in the early years of menopause, it can alleviate symptoms such as insomnia, irritability, heat waves and muscle loss”, explains the gynecologist Dra. Flávia Mambrini. “However, the replacement must be evaluated individually, taking a historical account for health and lifestyle.”

Creatine: cerebral ally in menopause

In addition to hormonal replacement, nutritional and additional strategies have earned importance. Creatine, traditionally known for its role in muscle mass gain, has shown benefits for brain function.

“Recent studies indicate that creatine can improve memory, concentration and mental energy in menopause women, as well as contribute to muscle health and metabolism,” says the doctor. “This is particularly relevant for those who face effort and cognitive difficulties”.

Active menopause: quality of life as priority

The modern climate approach goes beyond medicines and integration. Habits such as anti -inflammatory nutrition, regular exercise, quality sleep and stress control are essential to maintain vitality.

“Menopause does not mean loss of quality of life. With the right choices, this step is experienced with energy, mental clarity and well-being. Information and medical follow-up are essential for every woman to find the best strategies for her body”, concludes Dr. Flávia.
