Hormone‑Savvy Movement

Combine strength training with low‑impact cardio to protect bones, support mood, and maintain muscle. Two to three short sessions a week make a difference.

Nutrition That Soothes and Sustains

  • Calcium & Vitamin D for bone health.
  • Protein at each meal to preserve muscle.
  • Phytoestrogens (flaxseed, soy) may ease symptoms for some.

Restore Sleep

Hot flashes and night sweats can disrupt rest. Keep the room cool, avoid alcohol late, and try a wind‑down routine (stretch, shower, or breathing).
