So many women in perimenopause & menopause tell me the same thing:
“I feel bloated, heavy, stuck at the same weight, exhausted and not sleeping… and nothing I try works.”

That was my client too.
💛 In her first month, she lost 2kg, said goodbye to bloating, started sleeping through the night, and felt her energy return.

The difference?
We didn’t “diet harder.”
We looked at her Metabolic & Hormonal Blueprint — where her body needed the most support — and made small, simple shifts that created big results.

✨ This is The Metabolic & Hormonal Reset. ✨

If you’re ready to stop fighting your body and finally feel like yourself again — it all starts with your first consultation.

📩 DM me RESET to book your blueprint session today.

“It’s really a tragedy. It’s maybe one of the greatest screw-ups of modern medicine,” Makary said. “It’s resulted in 50 million women being denied this incredible therapy.”

The result has been undertreatment of symptoms that can be debilitating for women in midlife. In the late 1990s, more than 1 in 4 postmenopausal women were taking hormones to manage symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings and night sweats. By 2020, that number had dropped to about 1 in 25!!!

The US Food and Drug Administration plans to make changes soon to the lengthy black box warning on many hormone replacement products for women with menopause symptoms, Commissioner Dr. Martin Makary said.

I stand behind science, and here in NZ we are blessed with several ways women in perimenopause and menopause can support their bodies with declining levels of Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Please don't let yourself be dismissed.

HRT - systemic Estrogen and Progesteron, and topical and vaginal estrogen and Testosterone are safe for the majority of women.

FDA is removing "warning" that has been put in place decades ago, which is not and never has been supported by any clinical study confirming that HRT or Topical Hormone therapy is harmful, raises risk of cancer or causes cancer entirely.

MEAL UNDER 10 MINUTES! Under 500kcal with 25g protein!

Flavour!!! That's one thing I can't go without.

But THIS is often my lunch or dinner.

I always keep roasted veggies in the fridge, or just throw some tossed in a bit of oil into the air fryer.
Another must-have in my fridge is a hard-boiled egg
Then I improvise from here.

What other veggies are in the fridge?
Miz some yummy dressing.
Top it up with more flavour and protein.
Spice it up.

THROW TOGETHER SALAD
Full bowl of goodness keeping me full for hours.

OPTIONS:
Use rotisserie chicken or canned salmon/tuna
Add beans or chickpeas
Use different veggies
Add some nuts or seeds
Mix match dressings
Make it simple

Use rotisserie chicken.

There is no strong evidence that having a family history of breast cancer puts you at any higher risk of getting breast cancer if you take body identical HRT

HRT and testosterone are usually the first-line treatment for symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, and for the vast majority of women, the benefits from taking HRT outweigh any risks.

HRT and testosterone are usually the first-line treatment for symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, and for the vast majority of women, the benefits from taking HRT outweigh any risks. This means that there are also risks with hormonal contraceptives, as these all contain synthetic hormones.

Women taking estrogen-only HRT have been shown to have a lower future risk of developing breast cancer compared to women not taking any HRT.

- by Dr Louise Newson

WHAT OTHER THINGS YOU CAN DO TO LOWER THE RISK OF BREAST CANCER

- have a diet rich in antioxidants and fibre
- limit consumption of alcohol (wine too) and eliminate smoking
- support your liver in regulating estrogen in your body
- lower cortisol levels (if chronically elevated)
- move your body daily

Perimenopause weight loss isn’t about quick fixes.
