Signs your digestion is struggling during menopause and how to fix it

[@beckys2075]

Although I have suffered from IBS for 26 years, as soon as I reached the age of 45 it all went crazy. I am so gassy, bloated, constipated one week, diarrhoea the next, I have acid indigestion and awful nausea like morning sickness. I have had so many tests, follow the low fodmap diet, only drink water, and do all the things I should be still at 51 it continues, I am certain my hormones are to blame.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Yes hormones can definitely impact IBS. I am so sorry to hear it is bothering you so much. Sounds like you might benefit from trying Silicol gel - www.avogel.co.uk/silicolgel/

I had tummy ulcers two years ago. My digestive is weak especially when I’m getting g ready to get my cycle or when I’m finishing my cycle. It’s crazy and frustrating.😢 acid reflux, bloating and esophagus issues. I changed my diet but it’s hard when you have to cook for the family and they don’t eat the same as you. 😢 I cry a lot because I get so frustrated with all these symptoms. Thank you Eileen. You alleviate so much of my anxiety by knowing that these hormones are to blame.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Feeling better after listening. Hormones are to blame from my side 😅 Menopausal cramps without period, bloating, ibs and acid reflux triggers is what I've been facing for about a year and a half now. I drink cinnamon tea and take probiotics twice a day, alleviate stress will also help.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Great to hear you have found something that helps and also that the video was helpful. For acid reflux, ibs and bloating you may want to try our Centuarium drops - www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/centaurium-centaury/

[@janey8550]

When I started to experience issues like bloating and constipation I started to research menopause symptoms and realised my body was changing. I reduced the size of my meals and added drinking a glass of warm water with lemon juice in the morning, I also found a You tube video on morning stretches and massage to help with digestive help. This has helped and at least now go once a day.

Fantastic Janey, it's amazing how making small changes can make such a big difference! Best Wishes Eileen

My experience - yes! absolutely yes! What helps... certain foods make it worse, guided meditation helps, eating to fast or too much make it worse, pilates or yoga helps, lots of liquids, more veggies and fruits and balanced grain and enough protein helps.

[@patriciapyper4617]

I drink ginger tea and plenty of water and cranberry juice

What do you think about wild yam cream for perimenopause?

[@AvogelCoUk]

I don't have personal experience with it but may women find it helpful.

[@patriciapyper4617]

What about piles ❤

[@AvogelCoUk]

Piles are common in menopause, especially if you are constipated. Make sure you are getting enough water, and eating warm easy to digest food like soups and stews rather than too many dry foods. You can also try our Venaforce tablets which can help - www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/horse-chestnut-venaforce/

[@eleanorandrews6048]

I'm struggling with my digestive system I will be lucky if I go twice to the loo per week😢

[@emmag879]

Try eating dried figs and prunes and water.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Making sure you drink enough water is really important. You can also add a tablespoon of whole flaxseeds to some warm water and let them soak for an hour at least and then knock them back (they get a bit slimy but this is great for helping things move!)

[@pattycake8272]

If one is low on stomach acid then how am I having acid reflux? All your suggestions here do work great if I remember to do them. Lol.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Often low stomach acid can give symptoms that feel like acid reflux. Try Centaurium as this relieve acid reflux and balances stomach acid whether high or low! www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/centaurium-centaury/

[@jacquelinearcher1158]

Acid reflux can be to do with a slack muscle at the top of your stomach the one that holds the stomach contents down… OH found a pineapple smoothie for just this worked..just google it…it’s worth a try.

[@emmag879]

Soup with white csnellini beans are good but makes me bloated.

[@AvogelCoUk]

If they make you bloated best to avoid until your digestion is stronger. You may find our Digestisan drops help - www.avogel.co.uk/herbal-remedies/cynara-indigestion-remedies/
