Frequently asked questions
Why do women gain weight during menopause?
Falling oestrogen shifts fat storage towards the abdomen, muscle mass declines and metabolism slows slightly, while sleep problems and hot flushes make it harder to stay active. Weight gain is common but not inevitable; the combination of protein-rich meals, strength training and better sleep counters most of these changes.
How should my diet change after menopause?
Priorities shift towards protecting muscle and bone: adequate protein at each meal, calcium and vitamin D sources, plenty of vegetables, legumes and whole grains, and less alcohol and added sugar. Meals spaced to steady energy help with cravings and mood. The plan is adapted to your tests, symptoms and preferences.
Can nutrition help with hot flushes and sleep problems in menopause?
For some women, reducing alcohol, caffeine and spicy food in the evening, keeping blood sugar steady and including soy or flaxseed foods eases hot flushes and improves sleep. Effects vary from person to person, and nutrition is not a replacement for medical treatment when symptoms are severe; the two can work together.
Do I need calcium or vitamin D supplements in menopause?
It depends on your intake and blood tests. Many women can meet calcium needs through food, while vitamin D often needs supplementing. Whether, what and how much is decided with your doctor and dietitian rather than started on your own, since too much of some supplements carries its own risks.
What does menopause nutrition support in Beylikdüzü include?

You receive a practical plan for protecting muscle and bone and managing weight, with follow-ups every few weeks. Menopause nutrition support in Beylikdüzü can be combined with physiotherapy-guided strength training.
