Menopause Management Doctor in Glendale, CA

Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years. It is defined as the time when a woman has not had a menstrual period for 12 consecutive months. Menopause typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, with the average age being 51. However, the transition into menopause, known as perimenopause, can begin earlier, often in the 40s, and can last for several years before a woman officially reaches menopause. During this time, hormone levels, particularly estrogen and progesterone, fluctuate, leading to various changes in the body.

At Ojas Wellness, we understand that this phase of life can bring about significant physical and emotional changes. We take a holistic, integrative approach to menopause management by focusing on balancing key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and adrenal hormones. We blend functional and Ayurvedic treatments to optimize hormone levels and support the body’s natural rhythms, offering long-term relief without dependency on synthetic hormones.

Menopause is associated with a variety of symptoms that can impact daily life. The most common symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, and irregular periods. Women may also experience mood swings, irritability, anxiety, and depression due to fluctuating hormone levels. Other symptoms may include sleep disturbances, vaginal dryness, and a decrease in libido, often due to changes in estrogen and progesterone levels. Additionally, some women may notice weight gain, especially around the abdomen, as metabolism slows down during menopause.

At Ojas Wellness, we address these symptoms with a combination of functional and Ayurvedic treatments. We utilize DUTCH or ZRT testing to assess hormone imbalances and support adrenal and estrogen balance. Herbal adaptogens, detox support, and lifestyle interventions, such as sleep and libido reset protocols, are tailored to each woman’s specific needs, offering a comprehensive approach to alleviate menopause-related discomfort and support overall well-being.

A doctor can help manage menopause symptoms by assessing hormone levels and creating a personalized treatment plan. At Ojas Wellness, our approach combines functional medicine with Ayurvedic principles to address the root causes of menopause-related symptoms. Doctors can conduct comprehensive testing, including DUTCH or ZRT tests, to evaluate hormone levels, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and cortisol. Based on the results, a personalized treatment plan can be developed that may include hormone support therapies, lifestyle modifications, and natural remedies to restore balance.

Doctors can also help manage menopause symptoms by offering non-synthetic hormone options that balance estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, without dependency on traditional hormone replacement therapy. We integrate Ayurvedic adaptogens, herbal treatments, and detox protocols to enhance energy, mood, and overall vitality during menopause. Our focus is on empowering women to thrive during this life stage by using holistic methods that support hormonal balance, emotional stability, and physical health.

There are various treatment options available for managing menopause symptoms, and at Ojas Wellness, we offer an integrative approach that combines both functional and Ayurvedic treatments. Hormone optimization through non-synthetic methods is a key aspect of treatment. This includes the use of bioidentical hormones or herbal support to regulate estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and adrenal function. Women in perimenopause or menopause may benefit from DUTCH or ZRT testing to evaluate hormone imbalances, which informs the development of a personalized treatment plan.

In addition to hormone optimization, Ayurvedic treatments offer a holistic way to balance hormones naturally. Adaptogenic herbs are often used to help with stress management, libido, and mood swings. Detox support, along with lifestyle adjustments focused on sleep, nutrition, and self-care, can be a powerful way to reset your hormones and overall well-being.

At Ojas Wellness, we offer herbal adaptogens and detox protocols to support women’s health, aiming to reduce menopause-related symptoms and help women in their 40s and beyond thrive through this life transition.
