1. Understanding the Menopausal Tradition in Indian Women
Menopause is a natural yet complicated process that marks the end of a female’s fertility. In India, this process usually occurs at an earlier age and often more intensely than the world’s average. According to ‘The Menopause Society of India’,the average age of menopause for Indian women is about 46 years, which is almost five years ahead of the global average. Also, a study conducted by the Indian Medical Research Council (ICMR) shown that about 65–70% of Indian women suffer from moderate to severe menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, exhaustion, and lack of concentration. Before years of menopause, a phase called perimenopause occurs, characterized by irregular hormonal levels that bring about changes in the body, mind, and emotions. After menopause, lower estrogen levels make the woman prone to bone loss, changes in blood flow, and poor sleep. All these psychic and physical symptoms can severely reduce a woman’s quality of life. Therefore, a multi-faceted approach that incorporates Ayurvedic medicine, dietary plan, and lifestyle improvement is a must to empower women and make them experience the transition with serenity and in balance.
PMS-ONE Nutra Essentials Herbal Granules exemplify this comprehensive method of treatment — a scientifically created Ayurvedic product specifically to meet the multi-faceted demands of women in perimenopause and post-menopause.

2. The Silent Burden: Social, Economic, and Emotional Impact of Menopause
Menopause is a silent fight for a lot of women especially in India. Cultural practices, various myths and lack of awareness are the main reasons why menopausal health is still not talked about openly. Women are supposed to "manage quietly" and they consider irritability, fatigue and mood changes as their weaknesses rather than just normal biological changes. The silence is also observed in the workplace where women in their middle age often suffer from less productivity, losing concentration and feeling anxious but do not ask for help. The influence goes beyond the individual woman. Menopause can bring about the tensions in family, affect emotionally, and even hinder the career. The symptoms like not being able to sleep well, hot flashes and mental fog can lead to a decrease in concentration and even emotional changes may result in rasa (frustration; losing one's patience). In spite of these problems, the majority of women still do not consider medical or dietary help to be an option left for them, mainly due to unawareness and inaccessibility. This emotional and social invisibility points out the need for holistic treatments that would deal with woman's physical and psychological health at the same time, thus enabling them to speak freely and take part in the menopause-manager lifestyle. PMS-ONE is one of the important factors in giving women this power through the merger of ancient Ayurvedic knowledge with today's nutritional science.
