Type 2 Diabetes Linked to More Severe Menopause Symptoms
- Women with Type 2 diabetes or prediabetes reported more numerous and severe menopause symptoms, with the strongest differences appearing after menopause
- Early menopause was associated with greater Type 2 diabetes risk, making the timing of menopause an important clue about long-term metabolic health
- Menopause isn't simply a state of estrogen deficiency, as estrogen activity can remain high in tissues despite lower blood levels, contributing to estrogen dominance
- HOMA-IR helps identify insulin resistance, while prolactin provides another clue about estrogen activity that a blood estrogen measurement alone doesn't reveal
- Reducing seed oils and estrogen-mimicking chemicals, eating adequate carbohydrates, staying active and restoring estrogen-progesterone balance support healthier metabolic and hormonal function during menopause
