Menopause Type® Eleven Protocol by Joseph J. Collins, RN, ND
Menopause Type® Eleven has symptoms that reveal decreased estrogen function, decreased progesterone function, and decreased testosterone function.
Health risks associated with Menopause Type® Eleven may include vulvar disorders, decreased muscle mass, depression, osteoporosis and heart disease, including angina pectoralis (chest pain). Since estradiol deficiency can affect blood glucose metabolism, there is also increased risk of insulin resistance and blood sugar disorders. Risks associated with insulin resistance include increased risk of heart disease, diabetes and some cancers.
To learn more about Menopause Type® Eleven, please see pages 155 through 162 in Discover Your Menopause Type, by Joseph J Collins, RN, ND.
Determination of this Menopause Type® is made through the use of the Menopause Type® Questionnaire, and/or lab tests. The Foundations of Hormone Health provides a detailed description on how to get the best results from protocols.
Hormone Specific™ Formulation for Menopause Type® Eleven
With the symptoms of decreased estrogen function, decreased progesterone function, and decreased testosterone function in this Menopause Type®, choose EstroMend™, and ProgestoMend™, and TestoGain™.
The EstroMend™ formulation contains herbs that relieve hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood swings and memory problems without actually raising estrogen levels. It promotes healthy mood, sleep, sexual function, memory and heart health without increasing estrogen risks.
The ProgestoMend™ formulation is a unique blend of phytoprogesterones, phytoprogestogenic herbs, and adaptogens and other herbs to increase natural progesterone production and function by supporting the ideal function of progesterone producing tissues and of progesterone responsive tissues, and by preventing progesterone resistance.
The TestoGain™ formulation contains herbs that increase natural testosterone production, improve the health of testosterone responsive tissues, and prevent testosterone resistance. These herbs can improve sexual function, mood motivation and drive by increasing natural testosterone production.
Other considerations:
Generalized fatigue disorders or adrenal fatigue can occur with any Menopause Type®. If a fatigue disorder is suspected, consider AdrenoMend™ to support normal adrenal function and support the normal function of the multiple homeostasis regulatory systems that become imbalanced with fatigue disorders.
Decreased thyroid function may also be present with any Menopause Type®. If decreased thyroid function is suspected, use the Hypothyroid Risk Questionnaire™ to calculate the probability of low thyroid function being present now, and if ThyroMend™ would be beneficial at this time.
