Perimenopause

What Is Perimenopause?

Perimenopause is the transitional period before menopause.

It's a normal part of the aging process when the body's production of estrogen and progesterone declines.

This decline can lead to physical and emotional symptoms, such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and irregular periods.

How Long Does Perimenopause Last?

Perimenopause typically begins in the late 40s or early 50s and can last for several years, although both onset and length can vary widely from woman to woman.

Some women experience symptoms for just a few months, while others experience them for several years.

How Can Perimenopause Be Managed?

While there's no way to prevent or stop perimenopause, there are strategies to manage the symptoms.

Lifestyle changes, such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management, can help.

Hormone therapy or other medications may also be an option.

How Can Naturopathy Help With Perimenopause?

Naturopathy is a holistic approach to healthcare that uses natural remedies and therapies.

Naturopathy may be able to help manage perimenopause symptoms through:

Diet and nutrition: Incorporating gut-friendly foods and avoiding trigger foods

Herbal medicine: Using certain herbs to reduce hot flashes and other symptoms

Lifestyle changes: Reducing stress, getting enough sleep, and regular exercise

If you're experiencing symptoms of perimenopause, we can help you manage them.
