Let’s Talk About Menopause

“No one will take better care of you than yourself and The Hyla Store, LLC has created products to help make great choices with ease.”

The Menopause Skincare is great for all women going through or passing through the change; let me tell you how this product works! Like all the products at The Hyla Store, LLC, the essential oil blend was created in-house. The blend is a combination of rose germanium, bergamot, and roman chamomile. Chamomile is great for relaxation but the calming property also acts as a pain reliever. Rose is the heavenly smell of spring and elegance, but also it holds rejuvenation properties for the skin and mental health. Rose and chamomile are pretty well known, but bergamot is less well known in the states.

“Hormones help you sleep, avoid depression, eat properly, maintain energy and so much more.”

  Bergamot, named after the Italian city Bergamo, is an edible green citrus fruit with a thick green rind that has a potent aroma. The rind is cold pressed to create the essential oil used in this blend. Bergamot is a relaxant and is associated with aiding insomnia and stimulating the activity of the hormones, dopamine (love hormone) and serotonin (sleep hormone).  Often when people think about hormones, only think of reproductive hormones, but hormones are responsible for more than just reproductive needs. Hormones help you sleep, avoid depression, eat properly, maintain energy and so much more. All of this changes when you start menopause, whether it is a natural or surgical menopause.

 “Having a skincare routine is a great solution for collagen loss, as facial massages help to restore collagen to the skin.”

           The skin and hair are other sufferers of the menopausal change. The body starts to lose collagen as women move into menopause. This can allow the skin to lose it plumpness and vitality. Having a skincare routine is a great solution for collagen loss, as facial massages help to restore collagen to the skin. Other ways to protect the skin is to cleanse the face daily and after wearing make-up while avoiding skincare with harmful chemicals. Also, moisturize daily using moisturizer with little to no water like the moisturizers at The Hyla Store, using moisturizer rich in skin nourishing oils that prevent skin damage.

“These ingredients also fight acne that can be triggered in women due to the loss of estrogen.”

           All of the oils in the Menopause Skincare Kit are skin nourishing ingredients. Shea butter is great for all types of skin, which makes it a great fit for the transition into and throughout menopause. Olive oil, which in this product is infused with sage grown right here in The Hyla Garden, is great for circulation, helps to treat skin against free radicals, and is a skin cleanser. Sage aids in relieving hot-flashes and relieves stress. These ingredients also fight acne that can be triggered in women due to the loss of estrogen.

“I could be a millionaire for all the times simply asking the right question to the doctor provided me with more help for my aliments or deeper understanding…” 

           While a great skincare treatment works wonders on the effects of menopause, remember to do your research. Since coming into menopause surgically and understanding this is a long-term hormone issue, I have run into a lot of doctors, OBYNs and “specialists” that do not know what they are prescribing, why, or how it works. Some synthetic hormones require a uterus to be properly used for the body which…many of the doctors I met with did not know and I was on the wrong medicine for almost a year after my surgery. Extra estrogen can lead to just as many problems as not enough estrogen, including cancer related illnesses.

           I suggest all women going through the change to read “From Hormone Hell to Hormone Well” by C.W. Randolph Jr., M.D. and Genie James, M. M. Sc. This book talks about hormones in a simple, but well-informed manner that grants understanding to all levels of learners. There is information about vitamins, diets, and hormones. This book tells you what you want to know about the changes in your body, what to look for in a doctor, and how to speak knowledgably when seeking help. I could be a millionaire for all the times simply asking the right question to the doctor provided me with more help for my aliments or deeper understanding of an issue- improving my overall health.
