In this episode, we discuss the complex interplay between stress and menopause, highlighting how declining oestrogen levels during menopause exacerbate the body's stress response. It explains that this creates a "vicious cycle" where menopausal symptoms intensify stress, and stress, in turn, worsens menopausal experiences. The text then outlines practical, evidence-based strategies to break this cycle, recommending mindfulness, moderate exercise, improved sleep hygiene, nutritional support, and social connection. Finally, it advises seeking professional help if stress becomes unmanageable and offers a Q&A section addressing common concerns regarding stress and menopause.
