Menopause doesn’t just affect hormones—it impacts blood sugar too. As estrogen drops, insulin sensitivity decreases, making weight gain and higher blood sugar more common. Understanding these changes is the first step to better control and long-term health.

After age 40, progesterone levels naturally decline—but this hormone is a powerhouse for more than fertility.

1. Low progesterone reduces your brain’s ability to use GABA’s calming signal, making it harder to relax and stay asleep.
2. Low progesterone removes a key “calm brake” on the nervous system, making anxiety sharper, stress responses stronger, and irritability harder to control.
3. Think of estrogen as the accelerator and progesterone as the brake. Without enough brake power, estrogen can push the system into overdrive, affecting not just reproductive tissues but also mood, inflammation, and metabolism.
4. Progesterone is like the brain’s bodyguard and stress manager—it calms excessive activity, protects neurons from damage, promotes repair, and keeps mood and cognition stable.

When progesterone drops, sleep, mood, focus, and overall well-being can suffer—but balance is possible.

You don’t always realize how off you’ve been feeling until things start to get better.

When hormones begin to rebalance, your body sends quiet signals: Clearer thoughts. Deeper sleep. More patience. More energy. Maybe even more desire.

These are the real wins of hormone support during perimenopause.And they’re worth paying attention to.

✨ The glow-up isn’t always dramatic, but it is deeply felt.

It’s the perfect time to take your movement outside.

-Strength training to support your muscle mass, metabolism, and hormone health
-Sunshine to help regulate mood, sleep, and vitamin D levels

Your metabolism, mood, and muscles will thank you.

Sunlight helps regulate some of your most important hormones, including:

-Cortisol – exposure to morning light helps set a healthy rhythm, keeping energy stable and stress in check
-Melatonin – sunlight during the day supports better sleep at night
-Serotonin – sunshine boosts this feel-good brain chemical that supports mood and mental clarity
-Vitamin D – technically a hormone, and essential for immune, bone, and hormone health

Too much unprotected sun? Not ideal. But some intentional sun exposure—especially in the morning—can be a powerful, natural way to support your hormones and energy.

Your hormones love a little sunshine. Just be smart about it.
