Let’s get one thing straight: you are not losing your mind.
You’re just not 25 anymore (sorry) and your hormones know it.
What you’re feeling is real. That sudden exhaustion. The broken sleep. The random rage at the sound of chewing. The brain fog that makes you forget why you walked into the room. The periods that disappear for three months and then come back like a crime scene.
This isn’t just “your age.”
This is perimenopause.
And it can start as early as your late 30s or early 40s.
Most of us aren’t taught how to recognise it. We’re left Googling at midnight, wondering if it’s anxiety, depression, burnout, thyroid issues… or something worse. Meanwhile, traditional medicine shrugs and says, “It’s just hormones.”
Screw that!
I say, let’s find out what your body’s really trying to say.
We’ve been sold the idea that menopause is a breakdown. It’s not. It’s a transition.
Your hormone production doesn’t just stop.
It changes.
The balance between oestrogen, progesterone, cortisol, insulin, and thyroid starts to shift. And if your body was already running on empty (hello career, kids, doing everything for everyone), that shift can feel like a full-on earthquake.
But with the right support, the right food, lifestyle, stress regulation, functional testing and smart science-backed care, you can move through this phase feeling calm, clear, and (dare we say it) kind of amazing.
Functional medicine doesn’t treat you like a diagnosis or a statistic.
It looks at your unique biology, history, and lifestyle to uncover what’s really driving your symptoms so we can support the whole you, not just your hormones.
We investigate:
How your body is clearing oestrogen (yes this is important in menopause)
Whether your cortisol is keeping you wired at night and flat in the morning
If your blood sugar swings are hijacking your energy, mood or giving your hot sweats
What your gut, liver, and thyroid are doing behind the scenes
And how your nervous system is coping with years of go-go-go
We connect the dots between your symptoms then build a roadmap that fits your life.
Not a random supplement list. Not a one-size-fits-all pill.
Real answers, rooted in science, personalised to you.
This isn’t an anti-HRT rant.
It’s a pro-you manifesto.
HRT can be one tool in a big, beautiful toolkit. But it’s not the only one and it’s not always enough.
