For clients receiving homeopathic support for perimenopause or menopause, below are some additional strategies that can be very supportive and help with the balancing of hormones during this stage of life:

Reduce stress

Stress can increase cortisol levels, which in turn may reduce the body’s ability to make progesterone. This happens because the body uses pregnenolone (a hormone precursor) to make more cortisol, leaving less available for progesterone production. Low progesterone can worsen common perimenopause symptoms like mood swings, anxiety, and sleep issues.
