Abstract
Classical Approach to Management of Menopause: Extended Scientific Literature
Highlights
When did human culture start thinking of menopause as a disease rather than a natural phase to be valued in a woman’s life? Having worked several hours in a science college, I am very concerned with the number of women who ask about hormone imbalances
Feeling a deep compassion for these women and approaching perimenopause in my own life, I began with research mind researching therapy to manage menopausal symptoms
In a recent review in Ayurvedic, An International Quarterly Journal of Research in Ayurveda, the herbs Ashokarishta (ASK), Ashwagandhachurna (ASW), and Praval Prishti (PP) were used to manage menopausal symptoms. It was directed by Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences as a randomized open clinical trial
Summary
Menopause is a natural transition that consists of biological and psychological changes that occur for women It is an understudied and underfunded research topic that has been traditionally treated with allopathic medicine with a fairly low level of success and does not address the most significant symptoms of menopause, which include anxiety, depression, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, and insomnia. Some studies show a significant improvement in symptoms compared to that of allopathic medicine; these studies need to be reproduced on a larger scale to influence the medical community that is not familiar with Ayurveda. At her first period a woman meets her wisdom. If any side effect is detected, it should be treated thoroughly
