Symptom(s)
If you've noticed you feel more wired, more on edge or quicker to snap than you used to, you're in very good company. Estrogen and progesterone both talk to the parts of your brain involved in mood and calm, so when they start swinging in perimenopause, everyday stress can land harder. Add broken sleep and it's no wonder so many women say they don't feel like themselves.
What's in this collection
- Magnesium: 300 mg of magnesium bisglycinate chelate and nothing else. Magnesium contributes to normal psychological function and a normal nervous system. The research on magnesium and everyday stress is promising but still thin (Boyle, Lawton and Dye, Nutrients, 2017), and we'd rather tell you that than oversell it.
- Omega 3-T: high-purity EPA and DHA omega-3s, easy to take in the morning.
- ThymoQuin and Toco-E: daily foundations that many women build a routine around. See each product page for what's in them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is feeling more stressed in perimenopause a real thing?
Yes. Hormone shifts during the menopause transition affect the brain chemistry tied to mood and your stress response. Many women notice it before they notice any other change.
Can these be taken with prescription medication?
Always check with your prescribing doctor or pharmacist first, particularly if you take medication for mood.
When should I talk to a doctor?
If worry or low mood is there most days, gets in the way of your life, or you ever feel unsafe, please reach out to your doctor. In the US you can call or text 988 any time, day or night.
Will these make me drowsy?
Magnesium, Omega 3-T, ThymoQuin and Toco-E are non-sedating and can be taken during the day. Anything made for nighttime says so on its product page.
