Although menopause is a normal part of a woman's maturation, many individuals experience discomfort due to a decrease in the levels of the sex hormones oestrogen and progesterone. The imbalance of these hormones can have a significant impact on the maturation process as well as on chronic health disorders. Recent research links the imbalance of these hormones and metabolites with primary mechanisms of bone turnover, lipid metabolism, cardiac function, cognitive and emotional health, immune function, as well as hormone dependent diseases, such as breast and endometrial cancers and lupus.
