Natural Protocol for Perimenopause: Hormonal Balance and Restful Sleep
Functional Support for Perimenopause
Perimenopause — the transitional phase before menopause (typically ages 40–50) — often brings hormonal fluctuations that affect energy, mood, and sleep. This natural protocol helps stabilize estrogen and progesterone levels, reduce hot flashes, and improve overall hormonal health using targeted supplements.
Before starting any supplementation, consult with your primary healthcare provider.
