The Perimenopause Method

Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice?

You’re trying – but all the ‘experts’ seem to have a different opinion.

Cut carbs. Eat more carbs. Fast. Don’t fast. Hormones are dangerous. Hormones are the answer. Take vitamin D. Don’t take vitamin D.

And at this point, what you really want is:

“Can someone please just tell me what actually matters for ME?!”

That’s what we do inside The Perimenopause Method.

We help you simplify perimenopause with personalized support, strategic testing, practical guidance, and a clear plan built around your symptoms and test results.

Applications are reviewed personally – if it looks like a good fit, we’ll invite you to a short Program Fit Call to talk through your specific situation before you enroll.

2️⃣ Stabilize Your Body

We focus on what your body actually needs to function. This is where most women start to feel better.

✔ Improving workouts, so they support muscle, fat loss & don’t wreck hormones
✔ Creating better boundaries to support your nervous system
✔ Improving sleep, recovery, hydration, and habits

3️⃣ Testing That Matters

We don’t guess. Comprehensive blood work and mineral testing (HTMA) are core parts of how we build your plan — together, they show us what’s actually happening with your hormones, thyroid, inflammatory markers, blood sugar, and micronutrients, instead of chasing symptoms blindly.

Have recent labs? We’ll review them. Need testing? We’ll give you a list of markers to request from your provider or you can purchase our comprehensive panel.

Want to go deeper? Gut testing is available as an optional add-on.

Claudia Petrilli, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, host of Perimenopause Simplified podcast, and creator of The Perimenopause Method.

I know what it’s like to be dismissed by doctors while struggling with debilitating periods, digestive issues, thyroid nodules, and perimenopause symptoms. Advocating for my own health and pursuing advanced training changed my life and became my mission.

For over a decade, I’ve helped women understand their bodies, advocate for themselves, and feel like themselves again. My training spans integrative nutrition, functional health, hormones, advanced lab testing, and HRT.

Tonya Romano, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner with specialized training in gut health, hormones, blood chemistry, and functional testing.

Tonya experienced menopause in her 40s, which fueled her passion for women’s health during this transition.

She holds a B.S. in Biology & Environmental Science and is a Restorative Wellness Practitioner, Functional Blood Chemistry Specialist, Certified Dietary Supplement Specialist, and Instant HTMA Professional, with advanced training in perimenopause and HRT. Her down-to-earth demeanor will make you feel fully supported.

I dealt with fatigue, weight gain, joint pain, migraines, anxiety, depression, acid reflux, and heavy periods.

Now my fatigue, depression and anxiety have improved, my bloating and acid reflux have greatly improved, and I used to get migraines daily, but now it’s only about 2 times per month. My joint pain is better and I was able to start working out again. According to my doctor, my visceral fat rating went from a 13 down to a 9.

I feel as though I’m much more equipped when it comes to my health and confident in my body. I don’t feel crazy anymore. I’ve been recommending you to so many women, because there’s such a lack of education around midlife health. Thank you again for everything! It was a journey; a good one. -Kelli M.

I was extremely lethargic, had little motivation, wanted to stay home and avoid the world. I did not feel like myself and my sleep was awful.

Every improvement made is because of the guidance and information I received in The Perimenopause Method!

I am sleeping so much better and wake up feeling great. The diet suggestions, HTMA supplement regimen & starting HRT has made such a difference.

I don’t feel like I’m going crazy, lost, hopeless or alone. I really liked getting my test results with detailed explanations from Claudia & Tonya.

If you’re a woman in your 40’s, TPM is a community of women going through similar things. The knowledge and expert guidance you receive is priceless. I am so happy with my decision and am feeling happier and healthier than I have in years. -Melanie B.

I was struggling with sleep, had severe insomnia and night sweats. I was also very irritable and had no boundaries in my life. I had begun HRT with an online company, but the support was not adequate.

I’ve had HUGE IMPROVEMENTS thanks to Claudia, Tonya & my NP. We figured out the best HRT plan, supplements from my HTMA, and how to implement boundaries at work and home.

I had gone to multiple doctors, but had no idea this was perimenopause. The program really educated me.

When I joined, I was in a bad place, having just moved and recently ending a relationship. I really needed support from other women and I received this and more!

I liked having data from the testing to support how I felt and understand how I could feel better. If you’re a woman struggling, really consider joining. The education and support is so helpful. Perimenopause is TOUGH and you shouldn’t have to be alone. -Summer

I was suffering from high anxiety – going out in public was a challenge for me.

Since joining, my anxiety has decreased a lot!

The program was very helpful; I learned so much. They made me think differently about the foods I eat and the products I use.

The testing helped me see which minerals were low in my body and how to increase those levels through food and supplements. I felt better fairly quickly and received great support. You don’t have to suffer alone – there is help out there. -Brooke W.

I definitely recommend this program to any woman who is struggling in their 40s! Thanks to the podcast, I had started a lot of the work on my own, but having Claudia and Tonya to help me along the way has been very useful.

The HTMA test was super insightful and led me to add minerals to my daily routine that were missing, despite eating healthy. The support and knowing others are also struggling has been helpful. I felt lost and alone before.

This program makes me feel like I’m supported and understood. Both Claudia and Tonya are very attentive! Thanks so much for your continued help! -Tara M.

I was dealing with heavy periods, migraines, fatigue, weight gain, hormonal acne, hair loss, anxiety and depression. I wasn’t getting enough sleep and had to take naps to get through the day. I was bloated and had acid reflux.

Since joining, I’m feeling so much better! I’m more energetic – no naps anymore, I’m able to power through the day, have energy to cook dinner, and am sleeping like a baby.

No more energy drinks, not gorging on snacks and don’t get debilitating migraines anymore. Everything used to ache – I don’t have that anymore. My libido has been better and I’m really happy.

I was miserable coming into this program, I even cried to you. It’s been a night and day difference! You have changed my life and I owe so much to you. You have been such a blessing in my health journey. -Shannon W.

Week-long migraines, digestive issues, and no energy were the norm for me. My relationships and work were affected and I was spiraling into a depression. I tried to do things on my own, bought supplements and ordered lab work. But I didn’t know what I was doing and wasn’t finding success.

That’s when I found Claudia. I had the drive and motivation to get better, but I needed her expertise to guide me. Claudia has extensive knowledge in this space, but also experienced many of the symptoms I did. Knowing she truly ‘gets me’ was very important.

Claudia explained my labs and we finally understood the root causes of my major symptoms. What a relief when you understand what’s going on in your body, because then you know what path to take.

I’m feeling light, my mind is clear, I have energy throughout the day, rarely get headaches, and most importantly, I feel like myself again…but a better version.

Claudia is extremely gentle and empathetic, truly cares and will give gentle nudges to make sure you don’t get stuck. If you’re ready to do the work, Claudia is the best coach to guide you on your health journey. Her expertise and wisdom are worth the investment. -Liz A.

I had headaches, constipation, heartburn, weight gain, depression, fatigue, hot flashes, and low libido. After completing the program, my hot flashes have stopped, I’m taking my headache medication much less, my mood is so much better, sleep has been good and I’m eliminating daily. I’m no longer taking antacid medication and don’t experience heartburn anymore. I loved the resources and access to the tests. It was exactly what I needed. –Amy B.

I had constant irritability, anxiety, and bloating. I would have stomach pain, especially after eating and I’d wake up in the middle of the night sweating. I also had heavy, painful periods with clotting, PMS, and wanted to lose some weight. After doing the program, I have high energy, I sleep soundly, and my anxiety has improved so much! I feel more calm, PMS is almost gone. Bloating is so much better and my clothes fit a lot better. I feel all around more comfortable on the inside & out! -Mery A.

The first word that comes to mind is: empowering. Claudia’s emphasis on education and the tools she provides has made me feel confident that I’ll be able to continue what she teaches in the future. Claudia was accessible and used her expertise to help me understand my symptoms. I was struggling with PMS, painful cramps, frequent headaches, low energy, anxiety, and brain fog. Now my cramps are more manageable, I rarely get headaches, my energy is back, my thinking is clear, and my PMS has hugely improved. Thank you! -Megan P.

I had been suffering from migraines for years and reached out to Claudia, hoping she could get to the root of the problem – something no doctor had been able to do.

Claudia understood the frustrations I had and started talking about a ‘functional’ health approach – it totally resonated with me. Along with her approachable and kind demeanor, I was eager to work with her.

After my tests and an evaluation, Claudia recommended a plan that reduced my migraine length from 3 days to 3 hours in a matter of weeks! After an additional tweak to my regimen, I NOW HAVE NO MORE MIGRAINES! Not to mention, more energy and less stress because of working with Claudia! Thank you, thank you, thank you! -Martina E.

I was diagnosed with Celiac and struggled with GI issues for years. I didn’t know what I could eat that wouldn’t make me sick or experience pain. I have anxiety the weeks before and during my period. I get stress headaches, anger here and there, compulsive thinking, acne, brain fog and tiredness.

Now I have more energy and my anxiety and libido are much better. I’ve stopped feeling sick after meals, am able to eat more foods and my stomach feels good! I created better boundaries with my family and kids, especially at bedtime. I’ve been able to implement morning movement and breath work too. Working with Claudia helped me so much. -Donna B.

I had severe anxiety, depression, trouble sleeping at night, fatigue during the day, was unable to lose weight, heavy periods, mood swings and constipation.

Now my anxiety has drastically improved. My periods are much lighter and the “bitchy moods” have gone away. I joined to address my anxiety, which it did, along with so many other health benefits! I lost 25 pounds and am back to my pre-baby weight.

Thank you Claudia for educating me to be the best version of myself. I still have work to do, but am putting in the effort every day! -Carly M.

I had been experiencing anxiety, hair loss, hair growth in unwanted places, acne, mood swings, depression, tremors, and fatigue.

After doing some functional testing with Claudia and going through her program, my “fight or flight” is gone. I have no anxiety, energy is great, sleep has been really good, I’m not constipated, my acne has improved and I have less sugar/carb cravings.

I no longer feel achy and can go for long morning walks with my son, which he enjoys just as much as I do. Thank you again so, so much for helping me heal. – Valeri L.

I was struggling with constant bloating, constipation, daily headaches, irritability with my family, and PMS. Nothing my doctor suggested was helping. I was given meds to mask my symptoms, instead of getting to the root causes. I was tired of feeling terrible and knew there must be a better option.

The testing showed the state of my gut and mineral imbalances. By taking care of my gut and adding the right minerals, I feel SO much better. My bloating and constipation have greatly improved, I no longer get daily headaches, I’m not taking any prescription medications, I am a lot more patient with my spouse and kids, and my PMS improved substantially.

I absolutely recommend this program. I received the support I needed. It was so nice to have someone helping you understand what is really going on with your body and answering questions in real time. You were always there to help and I will forever be grateful. -Jenn B.

I was bloated, tired, had sleep problems, weight gain, anxiety, constipation, heavy periods, cramps, and infertility. I wanted to make sustainable lifestyle changes. As a nurse, I knew what traditional healthcare could offer me and I wanted something different.

The data we got from my tests were incredibly helpful in pinpointing areas of improvement. I liked the resources and learning how my everyday routines affected my health (for better or worse!). The customized plan is extremely helpful – simple information that I could implement gradually.

I no longer feel bloated after meals, I poop more than I did before, and I don’t crave sweets as much. I have full control over my day and life, and all I need to do is make choices that I know are good for me. I also lost 8 pounds which is more than I’ve been able to lose in almost three years! -Hannah J.
