Menopause: what it is and how to live peacefully this new moment of your life with the aid of plants and a few tips

Menopause is a physiological period of a woman’s life characterised by several hormonal changes that lead to the disappearance of the menstrual cycle.

Heavy legs are a common complaint

In the evening, after spending most of the working hours standing or sitting at your desk, without moving, it's easy to feel a sense of heaviness in the legs.

This discomfort usually tends to worsen with the heat, which promotes venous stasis, due to which the legs are numb, aching and swollen. The feeling of heaviness in the legs, accompanied by cramps or swelling, may sometimes also be an indicator of an underlying pathological condition, such as a deep vein thrombosis.
