Perimenopause Natural Treatment
Your body is not broken. I’ll look at your bloodwork from a functional medicine point of view, we’ll create a daily customized plan so you know exactly what to do and where to begin.
“Everything looks fine, or your next step is a hysterectomy” are not words you want to hear.
As a certified herbalist and a functional medicine student, I can help you with.
“I can’t even move” to exercising 3x a week. We’ll look at your menstrual cycle and low ferritin levels and create a plan to include more than iron pills.
Blood clots? We need to look at your ferritin, thyroid, and vitamins. Then we’ll address your gut health, cortisol and liver health so you’re flowing easily again.
Night sweats? Sugar Cravings? Let’s address your blood sugar levels and create a plan to reduce these cravings so you feel energized again - not making cookies every day!

Perimenopause Symptoms
Perimenopause begins roughly around age 35. Slowly, progesterone starts to drop, and estrogen begins a roller coaster ride.
The first symptom you may experience is insomnia, and it becomes very confusing because at this stage we are often raising young children—so it’s hard to tell if it’s the kids waking us or the hormones.
The next change you might notice is your cycle lengthening or shortening, becoming heavier with blood clots, or lighter with a few days of nothing, then suddenly returning. Changes in your cycle are often one of the first indications that perimenopause has begun. Start tracking your cycle on a paper calendar so you can see exactly what’s going on.
As you move toward around age 47, you may experience vaginal dryness, night sweats, heart palpitations, and dips in mood. This is all normal and part of the hormonal fluctuations. What we can do is learn how to regulate these changes, support estrogen metabolism, and use herbal remedies and amino acids to improve sleep and overall balance.
As a trained functional medicine student, I can share the benefits of bioidentical hormones, but also how to optimize your hormones with or without hormone replacement therapy.
In my sessions, we look at three main areas to begin with:
• Blood sugar
• Thyroid from a functional medicine perspective
• Cortisol levels
You also have the option to add on a DUTCH hormone test if needed, and I highly suggest getting an advanced blood panel through Joi and Bloke because it gives us a full picture—thyroid markers, ferritin, vitamin D, and more.
You’ve likely already spent enough money trying to figure this out, but when someone looks at your health through a new lens—your diet, supplements, herbal remedies, and daily patterns—you leave with a step-by-step playbook of what to do next, along with 60 days of support where you can contact me anytime - you can ask yourself, “Would it be worth it?”
I look forward to working with you.
