Menopause Service

Menopause also know as Climacteric marks a time in a woman’s life when her periods(Menstruation) stops. Prior to this, some women undergo perimenopause. During perimenopause, a woman’s period becomes irregular, periods can last for longer or shorter amount of time or it can be lighter or heavier.

Menopausal symptoms vary widely between individuals. For some, the symptoms maybe milder and easy to cope with and for others it may be associated with physical and psychological symptoms that can interfere with day to day activities.

At RuminaCare, we understand that the attention given to women undergoing menopause is limited and passively discussed during consultations that is why we have thoughtfully carved out a specific consultation that will allow you discuss your symptoms and concerns thereby enabling us to design a personalised management plan for you. We also acknowledge the important role that alternative health therapy plays in the management of Menopause and that is  why we offer you the  the opportunity to speak with our clinical psychologist, Yoga specialist and Nutritionist.
