Perimenopause: A season of change, a community of support

Amy Miller of Natural Family Planning explains that women can use various resources to manage the physical, mental, and spiritual changes of perimenopause. This transition, marked by declining fertility and shifts in sleep, mood, and energy, often causes isolation for women.

Available support includes natural family planning practitioners, trained health care providers, and coaches. Rachel Beier, a board-certified health and wellness coach through her practice Be Well with Rachel, works with women navigating these hormonal changes. Lisa Rauscher, a physician assistant with Ascension Medical Group, uses her training as a FEMM Health medical consultant to assist women with hormone health.
