The period of hormonal changes around the absence of menstrual bleeding (menopause) is known as menopause. Homeopathy can help relieve symptoms. Hot flashes, depressive states and insomnia are just some of the symptoms. Read here everything you need to know if you want to take globules during menopause.
When is homeopathy suitable during menopause?
The permanent cessation of menstrual bleeding is called menopause. This date can usually not be named specifically, since the bleeding has become irregular for months or years before it stops forever. The time before and after this menopause is called menopause . Many women struggle with physical and psychological problems. The reason: the hormonal balance changes. Short-term problems associated with menopause are particularly suitable for alternative therapy . Homeopathy is supposed to do a good job here. Menopausal symptoms that may be alleviated with homeopathy :
- hot flashes
- depressive states
- Heavy sweats
- insomnia
- dryness of the vagiena
- fatigue

You can take the C6 and D6 potencies several times a day: three globules of the selected remedy each, a maximum of six times a day. The potency D12 should not be taken more than three globules twice a day.
In the case of long-lasting, very strong or chronic side effects, you can also try C30 potencies. However, these may only be taken daily for a maximum of one week. Here two globules per day are enough.
When to the doctor?
You should seek medical advice for all long-term side effects of menopause. Both osteoporosis and the changes in the cardiovascular system can be serious and must be monitored regularly. Short-term symptoms usually disappear with the completion of the menopause. In these cases, homeopathy can help to alleviate the symptoms.
