Perimenopausal


Midline weight loss; regaining control and improving future health

In this example the focus is on Alice, 45, who is perimenopausal.


Her list of symptoms include:

  • her mind is ‘all over the place’, 
  • she has weight gain around her middle, 
  • is irritable, 
  • sleeping poorly, 
  • emotional, 
  • is struggling to exercise, 
  • has joint pain, 
  • is craving sweet things, 
  • feels busy all the time, and
  • doesn’t feel on top of her game’ at work.
Lifestyle Health Assessment

She takes the lifestyle health assessment, which helps her and us understand the highest priority issues.


In this case there is another issue, the perimenopause, which is affecting a lot of the overall assessment.


Without starting treatment (replacing her hormones) for her perimenopause it would make it harder for us to support her as well as we could otherwise.


Once treatment is underway we can support compatibly alongside with the other elements.

Seeking a clinic

Because of Dr Tyrrell’s expertise as a menopause specialist, we have an acute awareness of those needs and the situation surrounding menopause and its difficulties. 


However, we do not provide menopause services or medical advice, and we initially recommend her to seek a menopause clinic. 

Note: we are not partnered with any menopause clinics, but because Dr Tyrrell has experience of them we recommend their use due to the significance of the benefits.


The clinics provide the replacement of the hormones, regaining balance. Thus, enable ladies to then make other positive changes and get their complete situation under control again. 

Where we help

This latter part is where we then help, to get the other elements of her situation back under control.


In this example she uses a private clinic to speed up getting an initial in depth consultation, then goes back to her GP post the initial menopause help, who is able to support ongoing prescriptions.


Alongside getting her hormones under control, she starts our Basic Support Plan, to help her change the shape of her midline, via better nutrition and lifestyle choices.

Initial Consultation

Post joining, she decides to have an initial 30 minute one-to-one consultation with us.


This helps to confirm what the goals are which we can help her with, versus what she’s now got more under control as a result of hormone control improving.

Her programme

She uses us to learn about how to achieve metabolic health.


We create a programme of ‘shifts’ with her which enable her to make long term changes that can be sustained. 

Control restored

With the combination of the hormonal changes, and our support, within weeks she is able to feel much more in control of her situation. 


This enables her to then spend the following weeks and months focusing more on the nutrition and other lifestyle changes which then enable her to reduce her midline, and feel better. Both from a mood perspective, but also feel better about her body shape. 

Thinking long term

With her new understanding of the importance of oestrogen, specifically for benefitting her long term health, she is then keen to look at other aspects which will enhance not only her quality of life but her longevity too. 

Testing gut health

So, she undertakes microbiome testing to understand her current gut health, what improvements can be made there, and continues her lifestyle health journey with us.
