Histamine Intolerance and Menopause - #79
Many women entering perimenopause often experience the onset of new food and/or seasonal allergies or intolerances. Maybe you’re noticing new and strange symptoms after drinking alcohol, eating specific foods, or smelling fragrances. Maybe you're noticing adverse reactions to environmental compounds, such as hay fever, skin issues, like eczema, or even asthma. Did you know that estrogen stimulates the release of histamine and your body may struggle to excrete it? Higher histamine also leads to more estrogen being released in your body and you can see what a vicious cycle this can be.
In my health coaching business, I work with many midlife women who know they have histamine intolerance and take a myriad of over-the-counter medications to suppress the adverse symptoms. I also work with women who have no idea and discover it along their health journey in working together. Personally, I never had allergies, and all of a sudden in menopause seasonal allergies appeared. It’s all too common and very much overlooked.
