Midlife hormone support

Perimenopause & Menopause Support

A practical whole-person approach for women navigating hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disruption, mood changes, brain fog, body changes and midlife fatigue.

Overview

A whole-person way to understand your symptoms.

Perimenopause can feel confusing because symptoms can begin while periods are still regular. Menopause can also bring changes that affect sleep, mood, cognition, libido, skin, joints, digestion, body composition and confidence.

Dr. Zorn helps patients make sense of these shifts and choose strategies that are realistic, safe and aligned with their goals.

This may be a fit if

You are looking for clarity, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Every patient’s story is different. These are common reasons people book this type of appointment.

  • You are experiencing hot flashes, night sweats or temperature changes.
  • Sleep is lighter, interrupted or less restorative.
  • Mood, anxiety, irritability, motivation or focus has changed.
  • Your body composition, libido, skin, hair or joint comfort has shifted.
  • You want to discuss options without feeling rushed.

Assessment

What Dr. Zorn may consider.

The assessment is tailored to your symptoms, goals and safety needs. Bring current medications, supplements and recent labs.

Consideration 1

Symptom timing, menstrual pattern changes, sleep quality, stress load and recovery.

Consideration 2

Nutrition, protein intake, blood sugar patterns, alcohol/caffeine tolerance and digestion.

Consideration 3

Thyroid, iron, B12, vitamin D and metabolic markers where relevant.

Consideration 4

Current medications, hormone therapy conversations and safety factors that require medical follow-up.

Care plan

What support may include.

Your plan is individualized and adjusted over time. Recommendations depend on what is clinically appropriate and what feels possible for you.

  • Education about the perimenopause-to-menopause transition.
  • Nutrition and lifestyle support for sleep, energy, mood and blood sugar stability.
  • Botanical or nutraceutical options when appropriate, with interaction review.
  • Acupuncture for stress, tension, relaxation and whole-body support when suitable.
  • Referral or collaboration when medical assessment or hormone therapy discussion is appropriate.

Common questions

Before you book.

Can I book before my periods change?

Yes. Sleep, mood, temperature and energy changes may begin before cycles are clearly irregular.

Will I be told this is just aging?

No. The goal is to understand your symptoms and options with care.

Do you guarantee symptom relief?

No. Outcomes vary. Care is individualized and reassessed over time.
