Every time I see a perimenopause âprotocolâ with prescriptions and supplements, I have the same question:
how much is this going to cost⌠and how long before it creates a new set of problems?
Supplements arenât cheap, and in perimenopause, stacking too many or choosing the wrong ones often backfires.
When hormones are swinging, the body isnât asking for more pills, itâs asking for foundational support.
And prescriptions tend to chase symptoms rather than address root causes, which can widen nutrient gaps, overload detox pathways, and quietly create more fatigue, weight gain, or brain fog a few months down the line.
My approach is simpler and far more effective.
I start with food. Not in a complicated way, but strategically.
Simple meals, basic macros without counting, and one-stop grocery runs that donât require overthinking.
When youâre running a business or operating at a high level, you donât need more things to track. You need a system that lowers mental load and restores energy.
This is exactly how I rebuilt my own energetic capacity.
Chronic fatigue dissolved.
Cystic acne cleared.
Mood swings settled into calm, steady focus under stress.
About 80% of that transformation came from upgrading how I ate so my body could actually produce, clear, and regulate hormones again.
From there, everything else finally worked.
You can start small with simple tweaks that stabilize energy, or go a bit deeper with a short-term elimination of foods that quietly drain nutrients and focus.
Either way, the result is more energy, clearer thinking, and a greater sense of control in a very full life.
If you want a smarter place to begin, I created the Hormone Repair Guide to walk you through this without overwhelm.
