What are the 3 worst digestive symptoms of menopause?

[@suzio6571]

I really thank God for your awesome videos, tips, and advice. Going through perimenopause and experiencing doctors who know NOTHING about this, is both scary and frustrating. I've gone through multiple invasive tests on my heart, and thankfully results have come back fine. But not ONE doctor ever mentioned that my heart issues may be related to perimenopause, even when i mentioned that my blood pressure would spike every time i got my period. I'm so grateful that there are wise women, such as yourself, out there, bringing us hope - and calm. 😘🙏

I am post menopause as of 4 months. I don't have acid reflux but I do have heartburn, on average, 4 times a week. This started around 5 months into menopause. What food causes it, seems to vary. I'm hoping it goes away now that I am post-menopausal. It's very uncomfortable. Thank you for these insightful videos.

No constipation, I get the loose stool. Just as annoying in its own way.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Hi If you're getting constant loose stools it is wise to double check with your doctor just to eliminate any underlying digestive issues such as polyps, ulcers or IBS. Best Wishes Eileen

[@navbharat1443]

Hi christina, are u still getting loose stools? Colonoscopy over ? Please update me as I am facing similar issues

[@christinaoflight241]

@navbharat1443 Hi, yes, I am now fine. I first off, had to stop drinking coconut milk. My system couldn't take it anymore after 10 yrs. 2nd, I was in the end phase of perimenopause. Oddly enough, I normally don't eat wheat bc I am intolerant, but I started craving it. So I ate wheat products for about 8 months or so, not having any issues. It actually brought my personal system into balance. Having said that, I eventually needed to stop again back to a gluten-free diet. I believe having known my body, I eventually figured my situation out. I have no more issues. So, for me it was maneuvering my diet & finally reaching full menopause allowing my body to finally calm. Not sure if this helps any.🙏

Hi Venividi You may find a probiotic supplement can help but I would also get this checked by your doctor, if you haven't already done so. Best Wishes Eileen

I have all this issues can I get any medication from you as I get zero support from GP

[@pinksparkle4962]

Take RestoraLax every second day. It works for me. My Dr. recommended this. You can buy this at the Drugstore.....not a prescription.

[@AvogelCoUk]

Hi Mary Where do you live and I may be able to give you local stockists? Best Wishes Eileen

[@MNDASARI10]

I leave at Walsall uk

[@AvogelCoUk]

Hi Mary I would suggest our Milk Thistle Complex and take this for about 2 months. This contains herbs that are known to support and improve liver function which in turn can ease a number of digestive issues. You can find your local stockist here www.avogel,co.uk/stockists/ (you may need to copy and paste this for your browser.) If you would also like a chat about your digestive issues you can email me directly, giving me as much info as you can about symptoms, your age and where you are in the menopause and I'll be happy to help.

Ladies I suffer from major gas (mostly burping) and major heartburn, the kind that radiates to my back and it feels like I’m ready to quit at everything!!!! It gets so bad that I can’t even think straight and I forget what I do naturally to ease and heal this horrible pain!!! The answer for me is a really good hearty bone broth. I add chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon. I sip it twice a day and I swear the next day I am 80% better. I keep drinking this for about a week or so and it works so well!!! I drink about a cup more or less depends on how I feel, I’m very intuitive with my eating and healing. This helps the gut and immune system as well. I hope this can help someone ❤

[@Godisfirst21]

@@AvogelCoUk Actually I was so happy when I first took it because I pooped so much and it cleaned me out and I thought, "Wow, I found the answer", but this was just my bodies initial response. My period finished and my breasts are so sore, which means I am not in a good hormonal place for me. This is when it's the darkest. However, I've been here many times now and I know it passes. I just hold on tight. I'm getting good at this now, but there isn't one day that I don't pray to God to never get another period ever again. If and when I get hot flashes, I know I won't be getting a period and I prefer hot flashes. Happy 2023 Eileen.

[@flamingpieherman9822]

You should try taking bile salt if you're having constipation issues... That should help you with not only absorbing what you're eating, but helping it make its way through your intestines.

I'm not in menopause yet but maybe this will help..I have a hot lemon water every morning and my digestive system is working like a well oiled machine 🙂.

Thank you for these videos. They are very helpful. I am 46 and have been in the perimenopause stage for a year. I began with lots of digestive issues that I was diagnosed with tummy ulcers a year ago. I am not sure if they have healed because I thought I was getting better than all of a sudden I began with heartburn again. Can perimenopause be the cause of this? I am in a gluten free diet now to see if this can help. Thank you once again for doing these videos for us women. ❤

[@AvogelCoUk]

Hi Aideen, Falling oestrogen can have an effect on the digestive system and many women do get heartburn. Make sure that you eat really slowly; eating too quick or on the run can be a contributory factor. Drink plenty of plain water every day too. Due to your previous ulcer it would be good to check with your doctor in case the ulcer needs more medical treatment. Sending you my best wishes!

[@kc-il4sb]

I eat 4-5 prunes after dinner- look up all the benfits of prunes- including heart health and bone health. I also take sugar-free elctrolytes daily- especially if perspiring at night, exercise, and hot flashes to stay hydrated. Another thing that helps is probiotics, collagen help and I do a lot of walking and yoga. My digestion is really good.
