THANK YOU ALISON. I have been loosing my mind with this pain. No doctor told me this in the past 6 months: they tried to diagnose me with Fybromalgia and prescribe all sorts of medications, including Oppioids. None have addressed the real issue. THANK YOU.
I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia too. I know it is my menopause what is causing all my symptoms but all the doctors just think menopause is about hot flashes.
I have had FMS forever, with injury leading to this pain my whole life adding sciatica. I noticed past age 40, that WEARING HEELS induces it! Since abandoning heels, the pain is gone. True FMS causes immunity to opioids, so shame on your physicians for giving you a diagnosis and THEN prescribing what is well known to be ineffective. 😡 I was completely crippled by it in my early 30's and tried Lyrica/Pregabalin in desperation because nothing worked. POOF! All pain GONE and got my life back. If you check for FMS tenderpoints in the chest and have that (deep bruising acid burning pain when pressed) then you have it-nobody should have any sort of pain there. Yoga works wonders for it. Just slow and deep stretching. Anyway, that is a treatment that changed my life, but I definitely have FMS. If you wear heels, abandon that and see! 😊❤
Oh, I am sitting here in pain, perimenopausal. Gluteal tendinopathy and hip bursitis, pain gets far worse around period time. Thankyou for your video. First one Ive seen which has explained the issues in relation to collagen, etc. Breath of fresh air, thankyou.

You just now, in this video, described everything I am going through and wondering what the heck was going on with my outer hips!!!! This just made my life 100x better. I’m not crazy, I’m not breaking, I’m just adjusting to my hormone balance. Whew!!! Excellent video. Time to re-frame how I approach my workouts!
Thank you. I have experienced all of that. I'm menopausal and just started jogging and learning golf. I started to waddle and now I use a cane. Your video helped me see that I'm not crazy. Thank you for enlightening me. Update...turns out I was developing a tumor that took a while to diagnose. I had a grapefruit sized tumor on my pelvis which impeded my ability to walk. After radiation and chemo my walking is improving with physical therapy. Pay attention to your body.
I think I'll share my discovery here. I noticed around pwrimenopause that my previous hip pain (back injury) got worse too, ladies. I started to notice a correlation between wearing heels and pain-which was NEW. I switched to flat shoes only and WOW! So there is a 100% marked decrease in our hips tolerating heels with age! ❤😊 Yes-it causes this pain! The relief from wearing flat shoes only and daily stretching is amazing. I encourage all to try this.
I’ve been suffering from backpain and hip bursitis for over 2 years. They both started when I’m at peri menopause and now I’m past menopause but the pain still persist. Thank you for such informative detailed explained videos and I can’t wait for the next one so I can get into the correct exercises. I can’t remember when was the last time I had a real good sleep 😢

Estrogen replacement...I am post menopause and it is the only thing that has worked for me. Estrogen and following the information given here and one should see improvement. Of course not everyone wants or can have HRT. But it seems to be working for me so far. Wish I knew years ago.
I have hip pain and have had trochanteric pain syndrome and am now going to Physio once a week. I am having shock wave therapy. I have had 4 sessions. I have watched almost all your videos on this injury. I am 60. I haven’t been active really. You are VERY helpful!
Yes, I have almost learned my lesson. I skated too much & got really bad tendionopathy & muscle spasms. I’ve been trying to rehab everything for 2 years with set backs. My Physio told me to do the wrong things which also set me back & just aggravated my injuries. I have learned so much from your groups videos & I am going to get better now, even though I want to go skate again 😵💫
Yep this has happened to me. I had early menopause and didn’t get the HRT for a year now I have hip arthritis and spine degeneration at 46. Partly the lockdown and covid made it extremely difficult to get the treatment and then Brexit made a HRT shortage due to some sort of label change.
Get hormone replacement therapy immediately. Do not wait. In the first 5 years of menopause we lose 2% of our bone per year and 1% each year after that. 15 years from menopause you will have lost 20% of your bone and it does not come back with exercise, diet or estrogen replacement. Estrogen replacement will prevent further bone loss.
Weight training (resistance training) for one helps to increase growth hormone in the body which helps increase bone density. This is why resistance training is so important for women as we get older. There are other ways to counteract bone density reduction as we age. This is just one example.
I have shooting pain in my right hip when i'm sitting, walking and it even wakes me up out of my sleep. The pain is far worse than my kidney stones in the past.
I have major hip pain ever since I hit perimenopause, and now it’s worst than ever during my cycle. This explain why so hopefully intake of collagen will help alleviate this inflammation
Have u looked into the foods u eat? Many of our foods we consume cause our pains. They poison our foods in one way or another. There is a book out there( eat right for ur blood type.).. I don't follow it either, but I don't hurt like so many others, and when I do I just stop doing as much. DOLLARS have an effect on how much we do and what we choose to eat lots of times. I hope u feel much better soon ... Blessings
Reading your comment a year later. Did the collagen intake help your hip pain? I am suffering and am thinking of doing this, as well as taking plant based hormones and doing physio.
Thank you! This was helpful. I'm having outter hip and hip flexor issues. I was wondering if it was hormone related. I usually go for highly intense workouts and have found this has been harder. I think I'm entering menopause and have been in perimenopause for over 10 years. It hasn't been horrific, just annoying. Tgese injuries are REALLY getting in my way however. Thanks again.
I’ve been searching for some answers too. My pain is more in my groin and buttocks. It’s excruciating and there is no way I could consider exercise! I’m about ready to quit my job, I don’t know what to do, I feel totally incapacitated.
The first step should be to get it properly diagnosed. The menopause may have contributed but you need to know if your pain is coming from your bones, tendons, muscles, nerves and which ones if any. Once you know the source of the pain, then you can start figuring out the correct treatment plan for it.
@@SportsInjuryPhysio hi and thanks for the response. I actually started a bio identical progesterone cream about 5 days ago, and I feel much better so far. The pain is definitely associated with my cycle. It was about 3 mths between cycles, and the pain completely went away about 2 days before and stayed away for about 2.5 weeks. And it seems it the cream is working, that also tells me it’s to do with MP. I appreciate your input.
@@SportsInjuryPhysio and the pain is in my tendons. I also have a Lyme diagnosis and I got bitten 5 times along my bikini line, so I feel these things could be connected. I have learned the spirochettes live in tendon tissue, and that’s definitely where the pain is. Hopefully I am on the right track now.
@@MightyIsis Omg, how is it going with the bio identical hormones? I have hip pain, my periods make it far worse, Im perimenopausal, I was thinking of plant based hormones. I cant keep going through this. This is giving me hope.
@@eurekaelephant2714 hi, it sounds like we are in the same stage. I would have to say it is helping. It’s from wellness springs, natural progesterone cream. I just had what I suspect might be my last cycle so I had stopped the cream just before, and I’m feeling the hip and groin pain a lot at the moment. Just started the cream again last night, so hoping to improve over the next week or so. Still not as bad as it has been before I started the cream though. Definitely is worth a try imo.
This is eye opening. Three years ago aged 41 I started doing exercise, moving more, and triggered something in my hips that has never gone away. I can’t sleep on either side. I find it really difficult to,get into any exercise routine without hurting myself. :(

I have hyper mobility spectrum disorder and this causes frequent injuries. My injuries started after I started running in my 30’s. I have an acute injury every 6 months. Hyper mobility causes joints to move out of place. I’m 49 & in perimenopause. Hip and low back pain from most recent injury brought me to this video.
I have always had decent lateral hip pain due to SI injury. Now at 46, and looking like menopause (8 months no period), my hips are REALLY getting bad. Thanks for heads up.
You're welcome. My colleague Alison has also made a video about Hormone replacement therapy for this type of injury linked to menopause - the video is about Achilles tendon but also applies to lateral hip pain ua-cam.com/video/xPedFMWaI3Y/v-deo.html
You are a great teacher thank you! I wonder if this applies to shoulder, elbow, wrist and neck tendons? I am 43 and became fully menopausal this year. I got ill during COVID and I used to be an active gardener, Walker but I’m also a carer for my tetraplegic husband. I’m astounded how now my shoulders seem to have destabilised, my hips are easily sore, I crack and pop, my wrist and tennis elbow takes very little to aggravate it- it’s all joints muscles and strength that seem to have gone in 12 months. I think I will see a physio for help because I’m quite down about my sudden loss of fitness, wellness and youth at just 43! Please tell me there is hope for us menopausal ladies! 🙏🏻
I can tell you all About the menopause you can call my number I will tell you where you live that I live in Houston Texas or send me your number I will tell you all about it do you have what’s up
It prevent you from sleeping you cannot sleep no sleep in your eyes you don’t feel sleepy and have your muscles joints are hurting it have your head heavy it’s a have you dizzy you cannot think right it’s just like flu like symptoms all under your feet is hurting let me know I can send you my number I will tell you about it I will teach you about it
I’m only 38, and after getting Cov i started with peri menopause.. I’m having severe pain in my legs and hips and also suddenly prolapse in my pelvis and other typical changes you see in menopause like skin changes, vaginal changes etc. That bio weapon really messed people up more than they realize.
I would feel better about all of this if there was a warning!!!! You go from a happy healthy 38 year old woman straight to 104 in 6 years…. 44 years old I feel as if I have one foot in the grave. This is crazy!
I know what you are saying I feel the killing pain at night. Mine got so bad that it went into spasm and now I have a numb leg and the the top thigh muscle cannot bear weigh without collapsing. the Turmeric and the wild yam cream has helped so much.
I developed sudden bilateral Tennis elbow. It was worse in the right arm to the point that I couldn't even move my hand. I am in constant generalized pain. No doctor associated these symptoms with menopause. I did my own research and started HRT.
Thanks so much for this. I am 55 and over time have been noticing more and more lateral hip pain that seems to move around. I am currently in PT that I just started - mostly for my back. My physical medicine doctor said she wasn't a fan of yoga and my PT said yoga is good, she just isn't a fan of long pose holds. So I tried to modify and I'm in pain again today. I am going to give up on yoga for a while as when I do, the hip pain goes away but comes right back when I try to do even a light practice. . Maybe I just need a long while to heal or maybe I need a scan if it doesn't get better after a good amount of time off, but I wouldn't be surprised if this is related to menopause and maybe I just won't be able to do certain things. Thanks for offering up other suggestions. It's hard to let go of a yoga practice, but there's other things to do. Thought m ight workout on my mini-trampoline and see how that goes.
Hi Catherine, you perhaps just require time to do focused exercises to rehab your hips first. Most moves in Yoga require combination movements and I find that it is often best to start with very low load exercises and only in straight lines and restricting the range as well. So rehab first (your physio should be providing your with exercises) and then much later return to yoga. Successful rehab of this can take 6 to 12 months of progressive rehab exercises.
Siatic nerve. Look on utube for therapist who show u correct movement exercises. Mine hurts just laying on that particular side. My husband has the same problem. Yes it comes and goes . Try new pillow foam type insoles into proper tennis s type shoes. No flats. No heals of any kind. When I was still working every day cleaning others houses, I would have to have a new pair of proper fitting shoes every six months. It's been going on for years now, so has the menopause symptoms, but the symptoms are different now , nit better but different. Tubes tied and then partial hysterectomy. I'm only 58. Five years of no sex, hurts to much and no libido. But hey, have not had to worry about getting pregnant for about 30 years now and no cycle either. Had beginning stages of endometriosis. That was hell in itself. Blessings
Hi im 37 years old n I think that im mite be dealing with perimenopause left foot pain itchiness n dryness of the shin in private area n fatigue restlessness at night cause of foot pain
Thank you, I am teaching my community and this all makes sense. I intuitively have been doing the high impact yet moving slowly like doing my Tai-Fascia Yoga and less weight. I will view your other videos to learn a better way to educate. I will Hive uou the credit!!
Could somebody explain this ailment in regards to POST menopause??! I'always seing/hearing vids addressing this ailment in regards to menopause and perimenopause
The same applies to post menopause. Post menopause just means that you're now on a constant lower level of hormones but that at least it has stopped dropping. So you have now reached your new 'normal' hormone level which is lower than before the process started and going forward your body will always take longer to recover and heal.
Here's a video we made about supplements for Achilles tendon recovery, but the principles apply to all types of tendinopathy. ua-cam.com/video/HMpcNOUhS14/v-deo.html
Not really and stretches are actually contraindicated for this. I've discussed the treatment in detail here ua-cam.com/video/Ca94XHIooI4/v-deo.html but you can find videos about exercises etc. in this playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLkRW4ITRa6bDEJQx5Wr_MjWP2XecrI4Q2.html
Yes, it will likely affect it. They are starting to look into if hormone replacement therapy can help with this but the research on this topic is still pretty patchy.
I stand up at work for 12 hours a day/6 days a week. The pain in my hips is becoming unbearable, whereas just a year ago I had none. It makes sleep sporadic, hurts when i roll over, everything hurts. I've put on weight despite being constantly active, headaches are more often and I'm tired ALL the time. I'm at my witts end and my doctor us all but useless. I'm feeling completely defeated.
Get a second opinion or more. It's taken 4 years and 3 doctors for one of them to finally say I'm going through early menopause. I was put on hrt, estrogen patch and progesterone pills, but I'm not getting on with the progesterone as it's giving me headaches. Joint and muscle pain all went away though, and I slept great for the first time since I don't know when. I'm waiting for my follow up appointment to see if the dosage can be adjusted or something, because they were helping otherwise.
I'm 44 and my left hip is the worst, I have niggling pains everywhere else, I though it was poor posture from having a desk job but now I know it's perimenopause, thank you for explaining.
At 44 I had the most unbearable hip pain, I thought I had an injury. I felt like it came out of no where!!! It's like I cannot stretch or roll on my roller enough. I'm never fully free of pain ever and it drives me nuts
If you want help figuring this out, it does sound like something our team of physios can assess and help with via video call. You can find more information about the video call process here: www.sports-injury-physio.com/

Or you can turn/click on the cc (closed captions) of the video and READ what she is saying. She gave great information in this video. I’m so happy 😀 I found this video (and channel) because it vindicated my feelings that it is hormone-related pain in my right hip pain. Now I have to begin researching about natural and medical hormone replacement therapy.

I have always had decent lateral hip pain due to SI injury. Now at 46, and looking like menopause (8 months no period), my hips are REALLY getting bad. Thanks for heads up.
You're welcome. My colleague Alison has also made a video about Hormone replacement therapy for this type of injury linked to menopause - the video is about Achilles tendon but also applies to lateral hip pain ua-cam.com/video/xPedFMWaI3Y/v-deo.html
Well, I fell on in February of this year and now my body is going through a freeze I’m in some pain that my life had slowed down. Lord help ❤
You are a great teacher thank you! I wonder if this applies to shoulder, elbow, wrist and neck tendons? I am 43 and became fully menopausal this year. I got ill during COVID and I used to be an active gardener, Walker but I’m also a carer for my tetraplegic husband. I’m astounded how now my shoulders seem to have destabilised, my hips are easily sore, I crack and pop, my wrist and tennis elbow takes very little to aggravate it- it’s all joints muscles and strength that seem to have gone in 12 months. I think I will see a physio for help because I’m quite down about my sudden loss of fitness, wellness and youth at just 43! Please tell me there is hope for us menopausal ladies! 🙏🏻

@@clearahenderson9339 can u pls help me .I am also suffering
I’m only 38, and after getting Cov i started with peri menopause.. I’m having severe pain in my legs and hips and also suddenly prolapse in my pelvis and other typical changes you see in menopause like skin changes, vaginal changes etc. That bio weapon really messed people up more than they realize.
I would feel better about all of this if there was a warning!!!! You go from a happy healthy 38 year old woman straight to 104 in 6 years…. 44 years old I feel as if I have one foot in the grave. This is crazy!
My right hip is killing me. I can't even sleep on it
Heat / Ice / Get a massage / stop eating grains and vegetable oils . And oo Sauna ✅ Cold plunge after 😊
I know what you are saying I feel the killing pain at night. Mine got so bad that it went into spasm and now I have a numb leg and the the top thigh muscle cannot bear weigh without collapsing. the Turmeric and the wild yam cream has helped so much.
I developed sudden bilateral Tennis elbow. It was worse in the right arm to the point that I couldn't even move my hand. I am in constant generalized pain. No doctor associated these symptoms with menopause. I did my own research and started HRT.
Good luck with your recovery!
Thanks so much for this. I am 55 and over time have been noticing more and more lateral hip pain that seems to move around. I am currently in PT that I just started - mostly for my back. My physical medicine doctor said she wasn't a fan of yoga and my PT said yoga is good, she just isn't a fan of long pose holds. So I tried to modify and I'm in pain again today.
I am going to give up on yoga for a while as when I do, the hip pain goes away but comes right back when I try to do even a light practice. . Maybe I just need a long while to heal or maybe I need a scan if it doesn't get better after a good amount of time off, but I wouldn't be surprised if this is related to menopause and maybe I just won't be able to do certain things.
Thanks for offering up other suggestions. It's hard to let go of a yoga practice, but there's other things to do. Thought m ight workout on my mini-trampoline and see how that goes.
Hi Catherine, you perhaps just require time to do focused exercises to rehab your hips first. Most moves in Yoga require combination movements and I find that it is often best to start with very low load exercises and only in straight lines and restricting the range as well. So rehab first (your physio should be providing your with exercises) and then much later return to yoga. Successful rehab of this can take 6 to 12 months of progressive rehab exercises.
Siatic nerve. Look on utube for therapist who show u correct movement exercises. Mine hurts just laying on that particular side. My husband has the same problem. Yes it comes and goes . Try new pillow foam type insoles into proper tennis s type shoes. No flats. No heals of any kind. When I was still working every day cleaning others houses, I would have to have a new pair of proper fitting shoes every six months. It's been going on for years now, so has the menopause symptoms, but the symptoms are different now , nit better but different. Tubes tied and then partial hysterectomy. I'm only 58. Five years of no sex, hurts to much and no libido.
But hey, have not had to worry about getting pregnant for about 30 years now and no cycle either. Had beginning stages of endometriosis. That was hell in itself. Blessings
Hi im 37 years old n I think that im mite be dealing with perimenopause left foot pain itchiness n dryness of the shin in private area n fatigue restlessness at night cause of foot pain
Thank you, I am teaching my community and this all makes sense.
I intuitively have been doing the high impact yet moving slowly like doing my Tai-Fascia Yoga and less weight.
I will view your other videos to learn a better way to educate.
I will Hive uou the credit!!
Wonderful!
Good information, thank you
You are welcome
Very good 👍 thanks
Welcome 😊
Could somebody explain this ailment in regards to POST menopause??! I'always seing/hearing vids addressing this ailment in regards to menopause and perimenopause
The same applies to post menopause. Post menopause just means that you're now on a constant lower level of hormones but that at least it has stopped dropping. So you have now reached your new 'normal' hormone level which is lower than before the process started and going forward your body will always take longer to recover and heal.
Great advice 😊 thank you!
I appreciate your videos. Would it be helpful to add collagen powder as a supplement?
Here's a video we made about supplements for Achilles tendon recovery, but the principles apply to all types of tendinopathy.

I went through all this hip pain and am now back on HRT
Question: I have gone for massages but it doesn't help. She also did stretches during the massage but still painful. Is massage recomended?
Not really and stretches are actually contraindicated for this. I've discussed the treatment in detail here ua-cam.com/video/Ca94XHIooI4/v-deo.html but you can find videos about exercises etc. in this playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLkRW4ITRa6bDEJQx5Wr_MjWP2XecrI4Q2.html
I would be interested to know how women are affected when they have no oestrogen due to ovary removal. Would this make lateral hip pain worse? Thanks.
Yes, it will likely affect it. They are starting to look into if hormone replacement therapy can help with this but the research on this topic is still pretty patchy.
I stand up at work for 12 hours a day/6 days a week. The pain in my hips is becoming unbearable, whereas just a year ago I had none. It makes sleep sporadic, hurts when i roll over, everything hurts. I've put on weight despite being constantly active, headaches are more often and I'm tired ALL the time. I'm at my witts end and my doctor us all but useless. I'm feeling completely defeated.
Oh my. I'm very sorry u have such great pain. Yes standing all day will reck u . U hope u get relief. Blessings to you.
I hope things are better for you know and you found a good Doctor. Join a facebook menopause group and they might have good Doctor suggestions.
Get a second opinion or more. It's taken 4 years and 3 doctors for one of them to finally say I'm going through early menopause. I was put on hrt, estrogen patch and progesterone pills, but I'm not getting on with the progesterone as it's giving me headaches. Joint and muscle pain all went away though, and I slept great for the first time since I don't know when. I'm waiting for my follow up appointment to see if the dosage can be adjusted or something, because they were helping otherwise.

The story of my menopausal life....
I guess I'm very lucky I lost my job, my big house and my old friends. That I have less to care for now I need my energy only for myself.
its at my lower side am havin pain and burnin
HRT helps with joint pain
I'm 44 and my left hip is the worst, I have niggling pains everywhere else, I though it was poor posture from having a desk job but now I know it's perimenopause, thank you for explaining.
You're welcome!
At 44 I had the most unbearable hip pain, I thought I had an injury. I felt like it came out of no where!!! It's like I cannot stretch or roll on my roller enough. I'm never fully free of pain ever and it drives me nuts
If you want help figuring this out, it does sound like something our team of physios can assess and help with via video call. You can find more information about the video call process here: www.sports-injury-physio.com/
Iam 41 & feel lot of pain at my right hip point
Thank you think this is why im in pain
Thanks for watching, and good luck with your recovery.
Oh my life, this is totally what I have been experiencing. i am wondering how best to adjust my training to accommodate. that was so helpful!!!
You can do it!
Sounds so interesting but I can't hear you well.
Does menopause kill?
My right hip is very painful for 3years exercise ìs geui
Couldn't follow because of poor audio.
Vid sound is much too low! Yikes
thank you so much for this very helpful explanation. Hare Krishna
I can't hear much of what you're saying, unfortunately. Next time please make the volume louder. I enjoyed the bits I caught, though.
Sorry can't hear you properly ❤
If you can’t hear a UA-cam video properly, you may be able to read the “Transcript” of the video if clicked on “Transcript “ within the “more” description of the video.
Or you can turn/click on the cc (closed captions) of the video and READ what she is saying.
She gave great information in this video.
I’m so happy 😀 I found this video (and channel) because it vindicated my feelings that it is hormone-related pain in my right hip pain.
Now I have to begin researching about natural and medical hormone replacement therapy.
its on and off it my righte side
Very helpful! Speak louder plz
The pain on my right hip makes me think that I'm dying
I guess I am lucky the premenopause started when I was 54.
🌹🌿❤
I’m only 40. Started to have hip stiffness and pain when I want to stand up. When I walk its not bad at all but between sitting and standing up is when I feel the most pain. Unsure if I should be checked out or will this pain disappear.. 🫢🤔😕
It it lasts for more than 2 weeks or get worse, then I would get it checked out.
