To HRT or not to HRT?

Having gone through it myself, I realised that menopause isn’t just about declining hormones. It’s about how your body shifts across multiple systems — your sleep, metabolism, immunity, mood, joint health and more. Chinese medicine has a long history of helping women go through menopause - in fact in Asia menopause and peri-menopausal symptoms are virtually unheard of. Yin Studio uses evidence-based, natural strategies — acupuncture, chinese herbs, nutrition, sleep, movement, stress management, and self-reflection — to help your body adapt, rather than simply suppressing symptoms.

Why Is Menopause a No-Go Zone?

For 50% of the population, it’s an inevitable fact of life - and yet it’s still something we tend to speak about in hushed tones, even amongst the closest of friends. But it doesn’t have to be the big hairy deal we’ve all made it out to be . There are lots of strategies to help you through this transition.

Natural Treatment for Menopause

Menopause is the time when women’s menstrual period completely ceases, occurring when the ovaries cease producing the hormones oestrogen and progesterone. Initially symptoms of peri-menopause, such as irregular periods, heavy or light periods, and hot flushes will arise, before the onset of menopause.

On average, women experience menopause at 51 but can occur as early as 40 or as late as 55 years old. About 50% of women will experience uncomfortable symptoms, which could persist for between 2-8 years.
