Orientana Tips and Trivia
menopause - 2 important information
What is menopause? Menopause is a natural stage in every woman's life that marks the end of her menstrual periods and the decrease in the production of female sex hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone. A woman then loses the ability to get pregnant. For many women, this is a stage when they can enjoy sex without the stress of getting pregnant, but also a period of bothersome symptoms, both physical and psychological. Menopause usually occurs in middle age, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, although the age of menopause can vary. Menopause - how long does it last ? Menopause can be divided into several stages: Perimenopause: This is the period of several years preceding menopause, during which a woman experiences a gradual decline in the production of sex hormones. During this time, she may experience irregular periods, as well as symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, headaches, and more. Menopause: This is when a woman stops having menstrual periods for at least a year. At this point, estrogen and progesterone production are greatly reduced. Postmenopause: This is the period after menopause. A woman remains in postmenopause for the rest of her life. During this period, she may continue to experience symptoms related to hormone deficiency, such as bone loss, dry skin, urinary changes, and more. How menopause affects the body This period in a woman's life has a significant impact on the body due to the hormonal changes that accompany this process. What might a woman feel during menopause?: Experiencing changes in menstrual cycles. During perimenopause and menopause, a woman experiences irregularities in her menstrual cycle until periods eventually stop altogether. Hot flashes are a common symptom. Women experience sudden hot flashes, often accompanied by sweating and rapid heartbeat. Mood changes whose source cannot be identified. A woman in menopause may experience irritability, anxiety, emotional swings, and even depression. Libido decreases, which is why some women experience less desire for sex during menopause. Insomnia or difficulty falling asleep affects 40% to 60% of women. In addition, there is night sweats and often interrupted sleep. During this period, vaginal dryness increases: The quality of vaginal mucus depends on estrogen secretion and is very sensitive to the decrease in this hormone. The amount of mucus gradually decreases and it loses its viscosity. This can lead to discomfort during sexual intercourse. There is also a deterioration of the complexion and hair. There may be a loss of elasticity, firmness and moisture. The hair usually becomes thinner and less dense. About 70% of women experience weight gain during this period due to hormonal imbalances and slower metabolism. This is usually visible around the belly and breasts. Increased risk of osteoporosis due to decreased estrogen levels. This can lead to bone loss. Cardiovascular changes. Lack of estrogen can affect the cardiovascular system, increasing the risk of heart disease. Urinary changes. Urinary changes, such as urinary incontinence, may occur. However, remember that symptoms and their intensity vary between women. Not every woman experiences all of the symptoms. Some women may experience them mildly, while others may have more severe symptoms. If you are having difficulty, it is important to consult a doctor. Symptom treatment is usually tailored to the individual needs of the woman and may include hormone replacement therapy (HRT), dietary changes and the use of appropriately selected supplements. Increasingly, we are also using the support of a psychotherapist. Menopause - where to get information - research It is not a disease, it is a natural period in a woman's life. If you are experiencing symptoms that are bothersome to you, you can consult with several types of doctors. Depending on which symptoms bother you the most, seek support from the following doctors: Primary care physician: Consult if you are having trouble managing your symptoms. Your GP will refer you to the appropriate specialist. Gynecologist: Consult a doctor especially if you experience problems with your menstrual cycles, vaginal dryness, or other gynecological problems. Endocrinologist: Consult for hormonal issues. An endocrinologist can help monitor hormone levels and advise on hormone therapy, if indicated. Psychotherapist or psychologist: Consult them if you experience mood disorders, suspect depression or feel that something disturbing is happening to you. It is worth starting with a visit to your family doctor, who will order basic tests and refer you to a specialist. Check out menopausal care During this period, you should choose creams that thicken the skin, e.g. creams with the reishi ingredient.

WHAT MAKEUP PRACTICES CAN IRRITATE YOUR FACE
SLEEPING WITH MAKEUP ON Sleeping with makeup on is one of the most harmful makeup practices, and also one of the most common mistakes women make. Many of us have forgotten to remove makeup after a tiring day or simply give up on it. Why are these types of makeup practices so harmful? Because they clog pores and dry out the skin, which can cause facial irritation. So let's remember to remove makeup in the evening, preferably using the natural Kali Muesli micellar fluid for makeup removal and cleansing, which will not only cleanse the skin of makeup residue, even waterproof ones, but will also deeply moisturize it and soothe it in case of irritation. INACCURATE MAKEUP REMOVAL Another popular make-up practice that is very damaging to our skin is not removing make-up thoroughly. If you think that a quick, cursory make-up removal before going to bed is enough, you are making a big mistake that can have an unpleasant effect in the form of facial irritation. Make-up should always be removed very thoroughly! This can be done in two steps: first, by cleansing the skin with nourishing organic neem oil for make-up removal and then washing it moisturizing organic face wash foam Japanese gourdlina . Then we will be sure that we have got rid of all the remnants of makeup and our skin is completely clean. NOT TAKING CARE OF THE CLEANLINESS OF MAKE-UP ACCESSORIES Harmful makeup practices also apply to accessories used to apply makeup, such as brushes, puffs, and sponges. Do you take good care of them? Do you clean them regularly and thoroughly? Remember that all makeup tools should not only be washed, but also disinfected, preferably after each use. Why is this so important? Because the remnants of cosmetics that remain on the tools are a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, not to mention the fact that they transfer impurities to the skin and thus clog pores - a ready recipe for facial irritation. INCORRECT SELECTION OF MAKE-UP COSMETICS Among the harmful, yet common, makeup practices, we should also mention the wrong choice of makeup cosmetics. An example would be using a mattifying foundation for dry skin or an illuminating foundation for oily skin. Applying cosmetics that are not properly matched to your skin will not only make you look bad, but can also lead to serious facial irritation. We should definitely avoid this. If you are not sure what type of skin you have and which foundation will be best for you, ask a beautician for advice. NOT APPLYING MOISTURIZER BEFORE APPLYING MAKEUP If we care about the good condition of our skin, we should also remember to always apply a suitable moisturizing cream to the face before applying makeup. For example, we recommend a hydro treatment with saffron, which perfectly prepares the skin for applying makeup because: moisturizes and nourishes the skin, soothes facial irritations, has a light gel consistency, slightly tightens the skin. Thanks to it, your complexion will be cared for and your makeup will look beautiful.
