All women, upon reaching the age of 45-55 years, experience signs of menopause. During this period, the sections that control hormonal function, which are located in the hypothalamus, begin to age. Due to the systematic decrease in the production of important substances responsible for the functioning of the genital organs, the body’s condition worsens.
It is no secret that sex hormones produced in the ovaries support all vital organs and systems. Their normal production has a positive effect on the condition of hair, skin, bones, heart, and kidneys. During menopause, a woman experiences an acute shortage of these hormones, as a result of which the body ages faster and various diseases develop.
To relieve severe symptoms, the doctor prescribes medications. Klimalanin is a non-hormonal herbal remedy that makes women feel better during menopause. This estrogen in its action resembles a hormonal drug, but it does not harm the body. The drug is based on beta-alanine; this amino acid inhibits the release of histamine, which does not allow blood vessels to dilate during menopause.
pharmachologic effect
The amino acid beta-alanine helps to sharply stop the release of histamine , which results in an anti-menopausal effect. Klimalanin also promotes the dilation of blood vessels in the skin, which cause climacteric vegetative reactions and cause heat and fever , headaches , and hot flashes .
Many people are interested in whether this drug is hormonal or not. Klimalanin does not belong to a number of hormonal drugs.
Drug interactions and special instructions
The instructions do not indicate which drugs, including hormonal ones, Klimalanin cannot interact with. This confirms that the medicine has a gentle and safe effect on the female body and combines well with other medications. But before carrying out therapy, it is necessary to correctly assess the general condition and make sure from the doctor that there are no contraindications.
Since the product is not addictive, it can be used for a fairly long period, taking short breaks. It is allowed to take tablets when symptoms appear in the recommended dosage.
During therapy, you should temporarily stop drinking alcohol, as alcohol intensifies symptoms and increases the feeling of hot flashes. The tablets do not affect concentration or the ability to drive a vehicle.

What happens during menopause?
A decrease in the regulatory influence of the hypothalamus affects menstrual function: periods become short, scanty, and delays occur. In skin deprived of estrogen exposure, the processes of regeneration and collagen synthesis slow down, it loses its elasticity, becomes dry, and becomes wrinkled. All this can be experienced, but a much more unpleasant symptom of the upcoming menopause are the so-called “hot flashes”, they cause a woman a lot of anxiety, reduce her productivity and quality of life, prevent her from enjoying every new day and lead her into deep depression.

Hot flashes are the hallmark of menopausal syndrome
The occurrence of hot flashes is associated with a disorder of the function of the thermoregulation center , located in the hypothalamus and sensitively responding to a decrease in the concentration of sex hormones by changing heat transfer. Estrogen deficiency leads to false signals about overheating of the body, dilation of superficial blood vessels, increased sweating, increased heart rate and breathing, that is, the occurrence of hot flashes.
75-85% of women experience hot flashes during menopause to varying degrees . For some, they appear a year or two before menopause, for others much earlier, 5-15 years. The severity of sensations during hot flashes, their frequency and duration are individual. The most severe cases are associated with surgical menopause, which occurs when the ovaries are removed.

Hot flashes reduce quality of life
Hot flashes are rightfully considered one of the most unpleasant manifestations of menopausal syndrome. During hot flashes, the face and neck become red and covered in cold sweat. Sweating may be so profuse that clothing becomes wet.
Hot flashes can last from several seconds to several minutes, may occur once a day, or may recur every half hour. Often, waiting for the tide causes neurotic disorders, increased anxiety, confusion, and becomes a cause of self-doubt.
Night hot flashes manifest themselves in the form of increased sweating, they lead to sleep disturbance and insomnia, daytime sleepiness and fatigue, deterioration of memory and attention, decreased performance and resistance to stress, which causes depression, which reduces the quality of life.

How to cope with hot flashes and overcome menopausal syndrome?
- The trigger for hot flashes is often high air temperature, stuffy rooms, stress, anxiety, hot food, smoking, drinking alcohol and drinks containing caffeine. It is desirable to exclude these situations, but this is not always possible.
- A radical way to solve the problem is hormone replacement therapy. In this case, externally administered hormones replenish the missing amount of estrogens, and hot flashes disappear. However, hormonal therapy can promote the development of cancer and thrombosis, and it also sometimes causes side effects.
- The use of homeopathic and herbal medicines gives an effect, but in order to feel it, the medicines must be taken for a long time, almost constantly.
- Sedatives reduce the excitability of the central nervous system and reduce the number of hot flashes, but cause drowsiness, lethargy, and lethargy.
- The drug Klimalanin, which has an anti-climacteric effect, quickly eliminates symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, and has no side effects or contraindications.
