Lifestyle adjustments are key to coping with menopause symptoms. Regular exercise helps reduce hot flashes and improves mood. Avoiding triggers like caffeine, alcohol, stress and heat can reduce frequency of hot flashes. Relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation effectively ease irritability. Using vaginal lubricants/moisturizers improves vaginal discomfort. Eating a balanced diet rich in plants, high-fiber carbs and omega-3s boosts overall health. Connecting with supportive friends and getting enough rest promotes emotional wellbeing.
