Menopause and Bone Health: What Every Woman Should Know

As women enter menopause, declining estrogen levels can significantly impact bone health. Estrogen helps maintain a balance between bone breakdown and bone formation. Without it, bones can become weaker and more prone to fractures—especially during the first five years after menopause.

If you’ve noticed a loss in height, have a family history of fractures, or struggle with nutrient deficiencies, you may be at higher risk for osteoporosis. But the good news is, there are proactive steps you can take:

✔ Get tested for bone density and hormone levels
✔ Consider bioidentical estrogen therapy (when appropriate)
✔ Add progressive strength training 2–3 times per week
✔ Prioritize protein—aim for 1 to 1.2 grams per kilogram of body weight
✔ Ensure optimal vitamin D and calcium levels

Menopause doesn’t have to mean weakened bones. With the right strategy, you can protect your skeletal health, stay active, and age strong.

If you’re in menopause and want to take a personalized, functional approach to protecting your bone health, I’d love to help.

Perimenopause Can Start Earlier Than You Think

Many women assume menopause is something that happens suddenly in their 50s. The truth is, the transition—called perimenopause—can begin much earlier, sometimes in your late 30s or early 40s.

During this time, hormone levels like estrogen and progesterone start to fluctuate, leading to symptoms such as irregular cycles, mood swings, hot flashes, sleep issues, or brain fog. Because these changes happen gradually, they are often overlooked or mistaken for stress or “just getting older.”

Recognizing the early signs of perimenopause is powerful. It allows you to take proactive steps—through nutrition, stress management, sleep, movement, and targeted support—to ease the transition and protect your long-term health.

If you’re starting to notice changes in your body and wonder if it could be perimenopause, let’s talk. Book your free discovery call today: calendly.com/excelhealthmdwellness/call
