Conditions Treated
Peri-Menopause
Navigating the hormonal transition before menopause — hot flashes, mood shifts, sleep disruption, and weight changes addressed at the root.
Understanding the Condition
What Is Peri-Menopause?
Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, typically beginning in a woman's 40s but sometimes earlier. During this time, estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate unpredictably, causing a wide range of symptoms that can significantly impact quality of life.
Common symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, irregular periods, sleep disturbances, mood swings, brain fog, vaginal dryness, and weight gain — particularly around the midsection. Conventional medicine often dismisses these symptoms or offers only birth control or antidepressants. Functional medicine addresses the hormonal root causes directly.

Root Cause Medicine, Not Just Symptom Management
Perimenopause is driven by erratic fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone — not simply a decline. These fluctuations disrupt sleep architecture, destabilize mood neurotransmitters, impair insulin sensitivity, and accelerate bone and collagen loss. Thyroid dysfunction frequently emerges or worsens during this transition, compounding symptoms. Dr. Green evaluates the full hormonal picture to create a precise, individualized restoration plan.
