Joint Pain
Joint pain affects more than half of all women in menopause. There are a variety of ways to get relief from menopausal joint pain.

There is no defined cause-and-effect of menopause being linked joint pain, however there is plenty of evidence there is one. Because estrogen is a natural anti-inflammatory, one possibility is that when it dips and ebbs, inflammation can occur more easily. Estrogen also helps to regulate fluids throughout the body and may result in tissue of your joints becoming less elastic.
Beyond hormone fluctuations, other contributors to joint pain may include weight gain, a more sedentary lifestyle, dehydration, a poor diet, smoking and stress. These can all trigger or worsen joint pain.
