Beyond Hormones: The Real Drivers of Perimenopause Symptoms

Hot flushes. Brain fog. Anxiety. Insomnia.

We have been told these are signs of hormone deficiency - but the evidence tells a more complex story.

In this live session, we unpack why many perimenopause symptoms are often driven by nervous system dysregulation, sleep disruption, and neuroinflammation - not just oestrogen levels.

You will learn a practical, evo-biopsychosocial framework to assess what is truly driving symptoms and how to match targeted nutritional interventions to those mechanisms with confidence.

Walk away with a clearer clinical lens, more effective treatment strategies, and a renewed sense that this is not second-best medicine to hormone replacement - it is first-principles care.

Practitioners will leave this session with:

• Analysis of the key drivers of vasomotor symptoms beyond hormones
• Understanding of the key drivers of perimenopause symptoms using an evo-biopsychosocial framework
• Specific nutritional interventions to target the key drivers of perimenopausal symptoms Clinical case discussion and applications
