Ask Marilyn – Star Question: are there any herbs can you take to get your periods back if you’ve been diagnosed with an early menopause?

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Q: What is the best herbal product for a lady with low bone density who has been diagnosed with an early menopause at 42 years?  She wants to try and get her periods back.

A while back a lady of 40 came into the clinic because her periods had stopped suddenly and she was getting hot flushes.  She had been to see her doctor and blood tests showed she was menopausal. I asked her what had been happening around the time that her periods ceased and she said that she had been made redundant and had also lost her father.

Ask Marilyn – Star Question: My weight loss has plateaued, what can I do?

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

Q: I just wanted to let you know that I have been following your Fat Around The Middle plan and have already lost weight and inches off my belly.  I am 41 years old and have had an early menopause at the age of 29 and was feeling large and uncomfortable at 11 stone.

But I can’t seem to shift any more weight and have been stuck at 10 stone for some weeks now.  I’m not doing anything differently and haven’t had any sneaky drinks or food that I shouldn’t have.

I know your book recommends ditching the scales but I can’t help having a weekly weigh-in session as it does encourage me to see those pounds going down!
