Perimenopause & Menopause

Perimenopause and menopause can be a challenging time for women and many end up seeking support for the associated symptoms. Homeopathy can be wonderfully supportive for women during these transitional phases with a huge range of remedies being available as an natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy. Any woman experiencing ongoing hormonal symptoms should book a consultation so that an individualised plan can be created to support her during this phase. Homeopathic prescriptions are always individualised after an in-depth patient history is taken, but just a few of the commonly prescribed remedies are listed below to give you an idea of just some of the traditional uses of our wonderfully supportive remedies:

Sepia - often prescribed for exhaustion, irritability, low libido; feeling emotionally flat or disconnected to one’s family. There may also be hot flushes, night sweats, and a dragging sensation in the pelvis.

Lachesis - indicated for intense hot flushes with sweating and a feeling of suffocation.

Pulsatilla - a remedy targeting mood swings, tearfulness, and sensitivity. Hormonal issues that began in puberty.

Natrum Muriaticum - A deep constitutional remedy for women who have had a history of grief, hormonal headaches, dryness; and suppressed emotions.

Cimicifuga - often prescribed when there is a large range of fluctuating mood swings ranging from anger to anxiety and depression. Tension in their neck and shoulders (which may result in headaches or migraines), restlessness, difficulties sleeping due to anxiety.

Secale - traditionally used for heavy menstrual flow and flooding

Sabina - also traditionally used for heavy menstrual flow and flooding

Coffea - one of our remedies commonly prescribed for insomnia

These are just some of the homeopathic remedies that we prescribe during this significant transitional phase in life, but there are many more. With the right support perimenopause and menopause do not need to feel overwhelming or unmanageable. Homeopathy, combined with supportive lifestyle choices, offers a gentle and individualised approach, helping women feel more balanced and resilient. If symptoms are persistent or impacting daily life, booking a consultation allows us to create a plan tailored specifically to your needs.
