I profess to age gracefully and fight back when called a senior citizen. However, there are vexing challenges in this chapter of my life. I don’t mind discussing how I found the properly targeted wellbeing product for my hot flashes.
Twenty-five years ago, I landed the job of my dreams as a pharmaceutical sales specialist for a Fortune 500 company. At that time, I was in my early 40s, and I started experiencing early signs of menopause. The correct term is perimenopause.
The female reproductive hormones Estrogen and Progesterone go through significant shifts, causing menopausal symptoms. These changes signal hot flashes, the cardinal menopause symptom.
My initial signs of the change were a severe outbreak of adult acne, then persistent hot flashes every hour that waned over time and morphed into night sweats. I never considered Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) because of the cardiovascular and cancer risks.
These hormonal changes affecting your wellbeing could include brain fog, depression, joint pain, mood swings, insomnia, dry skin, and hair loss. Check out the list of 34 possible symptoms connected to perimenopause that every woman should know here.
I recently asked one of the medical professionals I know about why I still have bothersome manifestations of menopause. She mentioned the phrase vasomotor (VSM) triggers. VMS is a form of temperature dysfunction due to changes in reproductive hormones.
What triggers hot flashes and night sweats?
Heat and hot weather
Spicy Foods
Cigarettes and Tobacco
Caffeine
Drinking Alcohol
Stress
The Wrong Clothes (Synthetic materials)
Being Overweight
Personal Triggers
It’s worth noting that Mojo Wellbeing beauty products are holistic (contain no hormones) and have a practical approach to alleviating perimenopause and lingering menopause symptoms.
Over 20 years later, I still experience annoying night sweats. I’m thankful for MojoWellbeing products:
Dermatologist tested
Fragrance-Free
Paraben Free
100% Recyclable Bottle
I agreed to try three of Mojo Wellbeing’s selling products:
1. Hot Flash Quick Cooling Spray: active ingredients include glycerin, 1.25% Niacinamide, and Witch Hazel. I can attest to instant relief and cooling relief when I wake up hot and sweaty.
2. Collagen Reducing Serum: active ingredients include vegan collagen, Hyaluronic acid, and Amino Acids. Who doesn’t want the benefits of collagen to tighten skin and reduce fine lines?
3. Redness-Reducing Serum: Hyaluronic Acid, 5% Niacinamide, Ginger Root Extract, and Bisabolol. This product gets a thumbs up not because it reduces redness but because it strengthens the skin barrier and helps to even out my skin tone.
Lifestyle choices like diet, regular exercise, and relaxation may impact how often and intense a hot flash occurs. One last thought: sugar is a dietary demon; it can bring on a hot flash. Too much sugar in midlife could put one at risk for Type 2 Diabetes. You may want to monitor your sugar levels and see if there is a correlating hot flash. While checking blood sugar levels, find out your A1C for glucose resistance.
If you are new to perimenopause or a seasoned golden girl still experiencing hot flags, check out Mojo Wellbeing products, especially the Hot Flash Quick Cooling Spray. The $25 price tag is well worth the non-hormonal relief it provides.
I hope my findings on these properly targeted wellbeing products help your menopause journey.
Thanks for stopping by The Age of Grace.
