“…It is composed by 40 mg of purified cytoplasmic extracts of pollen (GC Fem) and a mix of purified cytoplasmic extracts of pollens/pistils 120 mg (PI 82), in addition to 5 mg of vitamin e. Pharmacological activity of PCP is quite similar to that described for the ssrIs, producing relevant reduction of HFs and remarkable amelioration of life quality (10,11). It has been largely demonstrated PCP can not only directly induce improvement of HFs and quality of life and sleep, due to its capability to act as a natural serotonin reuptake inhibitor, but also indirectly impact on mood and global health through its positive effects on vasomotor symptoms, according to the "domino effect" (10,12,13).…”

A. CAPOZZI, S. LELLO A. CAPozzI, s. LeLLoVasomotor symptoms (hot flushes, sweats) A. CAPozzI, s. LeLLo I sintomi vasomotori (vampate, sudorazioni) sono i problemi più frequenti nel periodo menopausale. La fisiopatologia dei sintomi vasomotori è basata sul coinvolgimento della carenza di estrogeni, sulla alterazione dei livelli differenti dei neurotrasmettitori (serotonina, noradrenalina) e sulla disregolazione dell'albero arterioso a livello sistemico. La terapia ormonale sostitutiva (TOS) è la terapia di prima scelta nel trattamento della sintomatologia climaterica. Altre terapie non ormonali comprendono farmaci ad azione centrale come gli inibitori del reuptake della serotonina (SSRIs) e gli inibitori della serotonina e della noradrenalina (SNRIs).Un estratto di polline purificato ha mostrato di migliorare la sintomatologia vasomotoria e la qualità della vita globale in donne in premenopausa ed in postmenopausa in studi randomizzati, controllati con placebo. Il suo meccanismo di azione è legato alla sua attività SSRI-simile, attraverso l'inibizione del reuptake della serotonina.

“…50 Se considera que las oleadas de calor perturban el sueño de la mujer menopáusica. 51,52 Estas sensaciones de calor ocurren en la parte superior del cuerpo, son rápidas, duran pocos minutos y pueden causar a menudo sudoración excesiva y microdespertares. 53 Pueden ocurrir con frecuencia horaria tanto de día como de noche.…”

Objetivo: revisar los aspectos fisiológicos del sueño, el efecto de la menopausia sobre el sueño, el diagnóstico y el tratamiento de las alteraciones del sueño asociadas a la menopausia.Resultados: los trastornos del sueño son patologías cada vez más frecuentes en la población general, con importantes consecuencias sobre la calidad de vida de quien los padece, por esto deben ser juiciosamente estudiados, diagnosticados y tratados. En el caso de la mujer, estos trastornos pueden aparecer ligados a cambios hormonales importantes durante el climaterio y evolucionar hasta modificar su comportamiento habitual, volviéndose sintomáticos.Conclusiones: el tratamiento de estos TS es sintomático y la TRH es la más aceptada para las oleadas de calor. Para el insomnio transitorio se recomienda el uso de hipnóticos y para TS preexistentes, que progresan durante este periodo, se recomienda la interconsulta a medicina del sueño, con miras a que dicho tratamiento sea adecuado y específico. Ante la evidencia controversial o insuficiente de muchos de los tópicos del tratamiento, es necesaria la realización de estudios clínicos adicionales.

“…[2][3][4][5] Thus, in addition to conventional therapies aimed at decreasing the frequency and/or severity of menopausal symptoms, women are in need of coping mechanisms that can assist in managing symptoms and maintaining overall quality of life. [6][7][8][9] Yoga as a Coping Strategy Crowe, Van Puymbroeck, and Schmid 10 proposed that yoga has the potential to serve as both a problem-focused and emotion-focused coping strategy, as defined by Lazarus and Fo l k m a n's 1 1 transactional theory of stress and coping. Support for yoga as a problem-focused coping mechanism is demonstrated in multiple studies that have identified yoga as a means for decreasing stress and improving physiological health.…”

In varying degrees, all women experience menopause, the condition of infertility due to altered reproductive hormones. The menopausal transition includes three phases—perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause—each associated with physical and psychological symptoms that can negatively affect women's successful functioning in everyday life. In addition to conventional therapies intended to decrease the frequency and severity of symptoms, menopausal women are in need of coping mechanisms to assist in managing symptoms as they occur. Using a deductive approach, a secondary analysis of 12 individuals' qualitative journal entries and semi-structured interviews obtained from a mixed-methods embedded research study was conducted to determine whether data exist to support yoga as a means for coping as presented by Lazarus and Folkman's transactional theory of stress and coping and by Iwasaki and Mannell's leisure stress coping conceptual framework. Results indicate that yoga has the potential for serving as a coping mechanism for women between the ages of 40 and 65 who are experiencing menopause and want to improve their health and/or enhance their ability to manage life's stressors. More specifically, findings discussed in this article advocate yoga as being a leisure activity in which problem- and emotion-focused coping strategies can develop, including mechanisms necessary for palliative coping, mood enhancement, and social companionship. To the authors' knowledge, data reported in this manuscript are the first to support the conceptual framework of Crowe, Van Puymbroeck, and Schmid, aimed at explaining yoga as a viable leisure coping strategy. Additional research focused on the psychosocial benefits of yoga, including yoga as coping, is recommended.
