Ladies, I made it.
I survived the hellacious moments I never thought I’d see the other side of. I’m not talking about potty training a tantrum infused toddler, endless hours climbing the corporate ladder, or teaching my cat to play the piano…put your judgy eyes away- he’s gifted.
I’m talking about finally clearing the 7 year Perimenopausal stage. (Rocky’s anthem emerges in the distance…)
The endless appointments on the crinkled paper covered table trying to convince my OBGYN these symptoms weren’t just “in my head” was a thing of the past. And as flattering as it was, I was finally done hearing “It’s just PMS. Besides, you’re too young to be going through perimenopause. Take an OTC pain pill and get more sleep.”
My period taking a leave of absence for a full year was all the ammo I needed to convince my doc what I knew months ago- I’m officially menopausal.
Confirming my diagnosis not only justified my ever so smug “I told you so” smirk as my doc read through my lab results- but it was also a huge weight lifted off of me.
It was a bittersweet transition.
I closed the chapter on having more kids- even though I was okay with closing that door, it was still a hard pill to swallow some days. But a new chapter was just beginning for me. It could only go up from here. I mean seriously, how could it get any worse than all the bothersome symptoms leading up to menopause?
Oh how naive I was…
Because, as you all know…the fun was just getting started…I only had an official label to blame for my misery now
- Cue my ever changing hormones.*
Without a moment’s notice I transitioned into what I like to call “The Great Exchange.” (Minus the great part.) The chapter in life where I exchanged up all night waiting on my teens to get home and meeting deadlines to up all night with night sweats. My voluminous hair fit for any rockstar music video morphed into something brittle, dry, and flat. Don’t even get me started how date night transformed into binging TV shows and “I have a headache”.
Like I said- hormones.
Just because “menopausal hell” is normal according to our doctors- it doesn’t mean we have to grin and bear it.
Thankfully, with every action there is a reaction.
Sister powerforce, Lauren and Catherine, were fed up with hating their hormones and knew other women were ready to jump off the struggle bus too. So they added the Menopause Essentials to SEMAINE’s all-natural hormone health line.
Without this supplement my battle through menopause would have been long and brutal. (Not to mention super hot and sweaty…but not in the sexy Outlander kind of way…)
Now I am armed with my all-natural menopause symptom crushing weapon and menopause never seemed more, as the kids say, “basic”.
You’re Still Hot- Your Body Is Just Changing.
Whoever came up with the stigma menopause and “old” go hand-in-hand should be poked in the eye with a salty french fry.
Ladies, I know you’ll back me when I say we’re still “Golden Girls” and I don’t mean like Blanche, Rose and Sophia… No, we are the rare beauties armed with wisdom and still have that spunk the stigma says we lose when we venture “over the hill.”
But menopause has a way of making our prime feel like a pipedream. The hot flashes, weight gain, mood swing, night sweats, Sahara dry skin and hair…dare I go on….
You’d think this would be a losing battle for the home team- But SEMAINE went up to bat and is giving us back our prime-naturally.
Menopause Essentials is perfect for real humans who are transitioning into their next hormonal milestone or who are already in the midst of menopause
“ I feel hot- but not from night sweats!
I’m in my early 30’s and premenopausal. Before starting the menopause relief supplements, I’d have to change clothes in the middle of the night because I woke up drenched in sweat. But now instead of being a fiery furnace at night- I sleep comfortably! My husband says I’m still hot- but not in the whole ‘You’re setting my skin on fire- move over’ kind of way. ;)” -K. Johnston
Why Does Menopause Cause Such Crappy Symptoms Anyways?
Like everything else in life- hormones can get wonky.
When your body shifts into full blown menopause your estrogen levels take a nosedive. Awarding menopause as the most dramatic change our hormones will ever go through. Menopause can happen as early as in your 30s to well into your 60s. (Sidenote: Perimenopause can occur up to 10 years before you’re full blown menopausal- super fun stuff…)
Menopause causes a sharp drop in estrogen and progesterone. These hormones- when balanced- are responsible for fertility, luscious locks, great skin, and supports moods, energy, and libido. When they drop things can get pretty out of whack- leaving us with a laundry list of bothersome symptoms:
- Hot flashes
- Mood swings
- Fatigue
- Brain fog
- Dryness
- Insomnia
- Reduced libido
- Weight gain
- As we all know, there’s more- but these are the most common*
When a Hot Flash is an Episode on Repeat….
When things are heating up- outside of the bedroom- it can be almost crippling. Instead of a quick trip to the grocery store, you find your head shoved next to the frozen waffles for a few minutes waving away onlookers. Nothing to see here folks- just my hormones hating me again…
One thing school never prepared us for was all the new accessories you get with menopause. A few bags of frozen peas in your freezer, a small fan in your purse, bottles of lotion and brittle hair relief conditioners, an area to recluse away in when you feel a mood swing coming on, and a recipe book for a whole new diet.
Sure, these hacks are great… but Menopause Essentials gives you the freedom to trade in your frozen peas for one recyclable bottle. Friends, it’s way past time to switch out our makeshift paper fans for an all-natural way to keep your hormone journey smooth sailing!
“Better sleep, less sweat!
My night sweats would force me to change my clothes in the middle of the night– dont get me started on my mood swings and plummeted energy levels. Perimenopause is brutal, but after taking this supplement I can now sleep through the night and I have fewer mood swings. ” -Nancy
Who is Menopause Essentials Really for?
In short?
ANYONE who is peri/post menopausal. (Yeah, I’m talking to you-get over here!)
SEMAINE’s products are designed for any and every hormone journey and menopause- the kahuna of all hormone journeys- is NO different.
People in their late 30s and early 40s-
You might have noticed a shift in your cycle compared to years before. If you’ve noticed a shift in your periods you might be perimenopausal. (But check with your doc for an official diagnosis and to update them on any changes you’re experiencing.) At this stage we are gearing up for the big show….
People in their late 40s and 50s-
One second menopause is a lifetime away- the next it’s right around the corner. (A corner we’ve tried to dodge forever…) Our sweat soaked sheets, mood swings, joint pain, dry skin, brain fog, and a smidge of depression and anxiety are hard to deny at this point. It feels like a health crisis on the rise.
People just feeling “off”
Have smaller things, like your significant other’s socks “just missing” the hamper…again, been causing you to have a level 5 meltdown? Have you felt down, anxious, unable to focus, or moody and not sure why?
Hormones. That’s why.
People in early menopause
Perimenopause causes sharp peaks and drops in your hormone levels, which explains the impromptu anxiety, brain fog, hot flashes, Hulk level rage, and feeling blah.
Hysterectomies, premature menopause, early ovarian failure, chemo, or other medical conditions all eventually lead to the inevitable– menopause.
Although your journey may not have been the “traditional” route, it still entails the same miserable symptoms and deserves a medal of honor for trudging through it.
Any of these scenarios sound familiar?
Don’t worry, we have your back- and your hormones.
Menopause Essentials is the perfect match for you and your hormones!
Whether this is a new path you’re on or you’re a few years in– 1 pill a day is all it takes to start feeling like the old you again.
Okay, I’m Listening… But I’ve Tried Everything! How is Semaine Any Different?
They say 3 is a crowd- but for SEMAINE- it’s just right. They don’t believe in a laundry list of mystery ingredients. They use 3 all-natural ingredients to help battle against feeling unnatural during your menopause journey.
- Red Clover Extract- Rich in antioxidants and aids with physical symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats and mood changes. Also helps to maintain bone density during menopause.
- Olive Extract- . During menopause one of the symptoms of reduced estrogen is a thinning and change in our skin texture. By providing our skin with a small dose of this special olive extract, you’re helping your skin maintain moisture and reduce visible signs of aging.
- Bergamot Phytosome During menopause falling levels of estrogen are linked with higher cholesterol, increased visceral fat accumulation, and increasing chances of becoming pre-diabetic or diabetic. Bergamot has been clinically studied to help support proper metabolism and healthy levels of lipids in your blood. Menopause can be a time of disruption, and bergamot helps keep your body and metabolism from getting thrown off.
Menopausal Essentials gets to the root of the problem and brings a natural balance back into your hormones as your body changes.
It is for everyone: free from hormones, gluten-free, soy-free, non-GMO, nut-free (though they do use sunflower oil for absorption) and never any preservatives, sugars or fake fillers.
