Many remained silent – and functioned. Only recently has the topic received much attention. Women are finally talking openly and honestly about what it feels like when estrogen levels drop; one in three really suffer from the changing hormones.

These symptoms can affect the quality of life and may require medical attention,” says Primary Lukas Angleitner-Boubenizek, head of the gynecology and Obstetrics in Steyr. There are many options. These range from herbal supplements to hormone replacement therapy, creams, lifestyle changes, stress management and medications such as antidepressants. Sports scientist and Uniqa vitality coach Barbara Schagerl-Müllner advises bringing more exercise into your life during this phase. “Women who are active in sports have been proven to suffer less frequently from symptoms such as hot flashes.”
