Managing Perimenopause Symptoms Without Hormones

Hormone therapy is effective, but it’s not the only option. At Be. Women’s Health in Frisco, TX, we offer a variety of non-hormonal approaches that help women feel better during perimenopause.

Effective non-hormonal strategies include:

1. Sleep support
Insomnia and night sweats improve with sleep hygiene, magnesium glycinate, and sometimes prescription options.

2. SSRIs or SNRIs
Low-dose antidepressants can reduce hot flashes and stabilize mood.

3. Gabapentin
Helps with sleep and nighttime hot flashes.

4. Nutrition & gut support
Anti-inflammatory eating patterns reduce bloating, fatigue, and brain fog.

5. Exercise
Strength training + walking can stabilize mood, metabolism, and sleep.

6. Stress reduction
Meditation, yoga, breathwork, and nervous system care can dramatically reduce symptoms.

7. Vaginal moisturizers & lubricants
For dryness or discomfort during sex, non-hormonal vaginal care can help.

Non-hormonal does not mean “no help.” You have options — many of them extremely effective.
