As a woman’s body hits middle age and goes through menopause, the immune system begins to weaken. It’s a natural process and there are several causes. T-cells, the cells that direct the immune system to kill cancer cells and fight infections, decrease in number. In menopausal women, levels of progesterone, estrogen and DHEA begin to drop. When these hormone levels decrease, so does the effectiveness of your immune system. There are many other side effects from menopause and lower hormone levels, all which lead to a compromised immune system.
All of these things, combined with T-cell and hormone deficiencies, leave a woman immunocompromised, to a greater or lesser degree. And to add more to the list, with stress comes increased levels of cortisol – the stress hormone. The rise in cortisol is just another way to weaken your immune system, which increases your chances of become ill.
So, what can you do to support your body’s immune system and even give it a boost, during and after menopause?
There are several ways to improve your immune system to a point where it will function at a more normal level after menopause.
Menopause can be a hard road to travel. However, you can turn the effects of menopause around and get your body’s immune function back on track. By taking these steps, your body will respond by gaining an increased ability to fight off infections, get rid of unwanted, unhealthy cells and put you on the road to better overall health and a brighter future.
