The #1 Mistake Women Make with Perimenopause (and How to Fix It)

If you’re in your late 30s or 40s and suddenly feel “off”—this might be why.

Understanding Perimenopause: Why It’s Not Just an Estrogen Problem.

Most people assume perimenopause is just about declining estrogen, but the truth is more complex. Your hormones fluctuate dramatically in your 30s and 40s, leading to mood swings, weight gain, and sleep disturbances. Here’s what’s really happening:

  • Estrogen Rollercoaster: Your estrogen levels spike and dip unpredictably, causing symptoms like hot flashes and irritability and many more. 

  • Blood Sugar Sensitivity: Many women develop insulin resistance during perimenopause, leading to stubborn weight gain and metabolic syndrome. 

  • Cortisol Disruptions: As estrogen declines, stress hormones become harder to regulate, affecting sleep and energy.

How to Support Your Body Through Perimenopause

  • Balance Blood Sugar: Prioritize protein, fiber, and healthy fats at every meal.

  • Manage Stress: Incorporate meditation, breathwork, and adrenal-supporting herbs.

  • Support Detoxification: Eat cruciferous vegetables to help your liver process hormones efficiently.
