Stress has a huge impact on our ability to ovulate as we move through perimenopause, and ovulation is HOW we make progesterone. Progesterone is the first hormone to start to change when the body moves into perimenopause, and that’s because as early as mid to late 30s, we start to have more “non-ovulatory” cycles than we did pre-perimenopause.

BUT it IS possible to minimise progesterone’s decline because we CAN support the body to ovulate more months in perimenopause than it would have otherwise. You CAN intervene and make your perimenopause experience a whole lot better 🙂

In this week’s episode, I recap the importance of wonderful progesterone and then I discuss that most of the time, when we don’t ovulate normally, it’s because we’re stressed by something. I discuss the BIGGEST and commonly overlooked stressors for many women in their 40s and how we might start to consider changing it.
