Hello Interloper!

Progesterone, often overlooked, is another hormone that declines during perimenopause. Known as the “calming hormone,” progesterone supports relaxation and better sleep, helping to balance stress hormones.
Quality sleep is essential in weight management, as sleep disruptions can raise cortisol levels, a stress hormone linked to increased abdominal fat storage.
By supporting progesterone levels, through lifestyle and/or hormonal support, we can improve sleep quality, reducing cortisol and making weight management easier.
