 | Hello My sister-in-law was at my house a week ago and complained, "I just hate getting old" (she's 53). She was discouraged that she couldn't remember words and felt mentally sluggish. I explained to her that this was a common symptom of menopause due to low estrogen levels. At first, she was excited by this information—something could be done about it! But then she realized she couldn't take any estrogen with her breast cancer history. Toxic Soups |  | She's not alone in wanting to avoid the use of hormones or drugs to treat menopause symptoms. A visit to your OBGYN with typical menopause symptoms can result in prescriptions for any or all of the following: - Hormone Therapy: Estrogen is what works, but it can be a risk. So your doctor will probably prescribe the lowest dose over the shortest time. Many women are not interested in the risk and will pass on this.
- Vaginal Estrogen: Same story as hormone therapy.
- Low-dose Antidepressants: These SSRI drugs are prescribed for hot flashes and "mood disorders" caused by hormone imbalances. All of these drugs have side effects, and many are addictive.
- Gabapentin: A seizure drug repurposed as a treatment for night sweats.
- Clonidine: High blood pressure med repurposed as a treatment for hot flashes.
- Osteoporosis drugs: The most popular drugs build "bone density" by inhibiting the destruction of old or dead bone cells. This increases bone density but without increasing bone strength.
Surely there must be another, better way. Why Hormones Go Wacky |  | Your hormones are a communication system in your body. Like bulk mail, trillions of molecules of your hormones plug themselves into "mailboxes" on your cells. Your cells then read the mail and know what your brain wants them to do. Hormones are very specialized chemicals. Sadly, in our high-tech society, we use similar chemicals for pesticides, insecticides, drugs, plastics, etc. The molecules of these toxic chemicals in our environment are so identical to your hormone molecules that your body can't tell the difference. These toxic molecules interfere with your natural hormones, creating stress that has been linked to hundreds of chronic diseases. These toxins are called ENDOCRINE DISRUPTORS. Here is a link to the EPA's Endocrine Disruption webpage. My experience has been that these toxins are a significant factor in menopause symptoms. An Effective, Non-Drug, Non-Hormone Solution There are many imbalances that create menopause symptoms. Each woman's answer is different. I do a great job of finding your problems and re-balancing your body so you feel great—even in menopause. One of the techniques I use to help women with hormone problems is an acupressure treatment called "Systems Balancing Technique," or SBT. I have been using this technique since 2001 and have helped thousands of women to improve hormone imbalances related to sex hormones, adrenals, thyroid, and many more problems.

Patient Stories Hot Flashes and Night Sweats Success! Years of going night after night with being wakened by hot flashes and night sweats had left me exhausted, wondering where, how and if I would ever have relief. Since focused treatment on the sex hormones – estrogen, progesterone, etc., I have gradually gotten relief with each treatment. Now I only experience a hot flash and night sweat occasionally. I sleep soundly and wake up easily. My mind is clear and I just feel good in general. Wow – what a difference! I thought I would never get such relief naturally, knowing my body is healing itself is reassuring about this method of treatment. SBT rocks! —D.Y. |
