Beat your symptoms with a Menopause Symptom Tracker

Aug 07, 2024

Menopause Symptom Tracker has the power to not only beat your symptoms, it can change your life too. But did you know that it can also enhance your yoga practice and confidence on the mat? Far from being a mere monitoring device that keeps track of symptoms, it can put a whole new spin on your menopause experience.

What is a Menopause Symptom Tracker?

Menopause Symptom Tracker comes in all shapes and forms. It could be a paper calendar or journal, or even a diary or plain old notebook. Or it could be in digital format such as an online calendar, online notes, or a simple word document. Alternatively, it could be a dedicated App of which there are plenty to choose from. Above all, look for one that’s easy to manage, and one that doesn’t take up lots of time.

Why use a Menopause Symptom Tracker?

Menopause can herald a tidalwave of physical, mental, and emotional changes. With 34 offical menopause symptoms at the last count, it can be hard to to keep track of what’s going on with your mind and body.

Some menopause symptoms can be tricky to identify, especially if you’re in the early stages of perimenopause - the stage before menopause. They may be very subtle and not always bother you, and that alone makes them difficult to keep track.  

Essentially having a Menopause Symptom Tracker is almost like taking a regular temperature check and recording all the data for you. It means you will always have an historical record of your symptoms which helps you gain a better understanding of your menopause journey.

A Tracker also helps you to spot patterns that you might otherwise be obvlious to, and prompt other lifestyle changes to improve your wellbeing.

It can also help you identify specific triggers. For example, if stress at work is getting the better of you, the chances are that your anxiety levels will be raised, your sleep may be affected, and irritability may be off the scale.  All of these are likely to show up on your Symptom Tracker.

Remember, brain fog is real, and if at any point, you need to see a doctor about getting treatment for menopause or any other related issue, you have all the evidence to hand without having to scratch your head trying to remember. And it’s no coincidence that research shows women who monitor their symptoms are more likely to seek help.

I’ve just completed my Symptom Tracker and I’m really shocked! At the beginning of July in Stage 1, there were lots of 3, 4 and 5's. Now the end of August, they’re mostly 1 and 2's with one 3!” ~ Suzanne
