Connection Bites: Menopause & Mood (Part 1)

Dr. Ginger Nash explores how menopause affects mood, focusing on the hormones estrogen and progesterone. She notes that maintaining a balance between these hormones is essential for brain function, with estrogen invigorating the brain and progesterone having a calming effect.


During perimenopause, the reduction in ovulatory cycles causes a drop in progesterone levels, leading to an imbalance that may trigger anxiety, irritability, and decreased stress resilience. Dr. Nash points out that natural remedies can assist in maintaining healthy progesterone levels and hormonal balance during perimenopause.
