Can Menopause be Delayed?

Can Menopause be Delayed?

Research is uncovering new initiatives aimed at delaying menopause and its associated health risks. Recent studies highlight the crucial role of female hormone balance in overall women’s health. Menopause accelerates aging across various organ systems, impacting the heart, brain, skin, and more, despite women’s generally longer lifespans. Emerging research suggests that prolonging ovarian function could enhance women’s health and longevity by aligning it with the lifespan of other organs. This approach aims to delay menopausal effects and reduce risks of age-related diseases like dementia, cardiovascular issues, and osteoporosis. Scientists are exploring experimental treatments, including the use of rapamycin, to extend ovarian function and slow egg loss, potentially providing valuable insights into the aging process.

For those navigating perimenopause and menopause, hormone therapy remains a powerful option. Consult your…

Vitamins to Help Reduce Dark Circles Under Your Eyes

While under eye bags are primarily a result of structural changes beneath the skin. These changes mainly involve the loss of supportive structures such as bone, muscle, as well as fat and fat redistribution. While no single skincare or eye cream product or supplement can directly change these underlying anatomy changes, certain vitamins and supplements can support skin health, potentially reducing the severity of under eye bags indirectly and help to temporarily get rid of dark circles.  What Causes Dark Circles and Eye Bags?  Dark circles and under eye bags form when the skin under the eyes sags and folds. When we are younger the foundation below the skin made up of bone, muscle, and fat supports the under-eye area, preventing the formation of under-eye bags and dark circles. However, as we get older the foundation erodes causing the skin to sag and fold and the under-eye bags to appear.…
