70. Why You’re Anxious in Perimenopause & What to Do About It

Don’t Miss An Episode!

About 15% to 50% of perimenopausal women may experience anxiety, often accompanied by depression, insomnia, and forgetfulness.

In fact, anxiety is one of the main symptoms women reach out to me about.

But unfortunately, a lot of healthcare providers aren’t addressing the underlying imbalances associated with anxiety, besides thoughts, mindset, and/or trauma. And of course these things should be addressed, but there’s more to the story…

 

In this episode, we covered:

  • Anxiety in perimenopause 
  • Hormone changes that cause anxiety
  • Why progesterone is your best friend
  • What to know about copper
  • Vital food & lifestyle changes to make 
  • Some supplements to consider
