8. Take Along Some Helpful Supplements
There’s no firm evidence to support that herbal supplements can take care of menopause symptoms completely, but some women find certain natural remedies to be quite helpful.
Iron supplements can be a smart idea, especially if you’re prone to anemia and you expect your diet to lag a bit during your vacation. Magnesium spray is another handy addition to your arsenal: as you age, your body doesn’t absorb magnesium quite as well, and supplementing with a diluted spray can reduce cramps, restore energy, and improve your sleep.
Your comfort should be your number one concern on your vacation, but now is not the time to try new medicines or drastic dietary changes. You know your body and how it responds to different conditions, so work with that knowledge and give yourself time and space whenever you need to regroup.
Don’t let the occasional hot flash or mood swing ruin your time — try to go with the flow, and don’t expect too much of yourself.
