As I’m sure many of you have seen, the theme for $As I’m sure many of you have seen, the theme for World Menopause Day 2021 is Bone health. Only recently since going through menopause have I realised the importance of looking after our body and actions we should proactively take to strengthen our bones and muscles. If I’m honest, I was never a person to exercise much and my strength was pretty limited! The bones in our body are light enough for our body to move and strong enough to support our entire weight. As we go through (peri)menopause we unfortunately begin to lose this luxury! Why is this the case? Well it’s down to our decreasing levels of oestrogen- now there’s a surprise! As estrogen levels drops, there is a relative increase in bone removal against bone renewal leading to bone thinning & bone loss. This can therefore impact the way we are able to function and great susceptibility to diseases such as osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is commonly referred to as a “Silent Disease” as there are typically no symptoms until a bone is broken or fractured! It is important to ensure we maintain those bones through lifestyle changes! Scroll to find out what this can include. Have you taken any other actions to protect your bones? Let’s share tips in the comments and help each other out ✨ #worldmenopauseday #worldmenopauseday2021 #bonehealth #ims #osteoporosis$
