Menopause Health Consultation


Introduction

Menopause is a profound life transition — natural, yes, but often disruptive. From hot flashes and night sweats to brain fog, low libido, insomnia, and anxiety, this stage can affect every aspect of your well-being.

If you're one of the many women seeking natural menopause treatment without synthetic hormone replacement therapy (HRT), you're in the right place. At Optimal Health Network, we've supported thousands of women through menopause using personalized, non-hormonal protocols that work with your body — not against it.

When Does Menopause Start?

Most women begin the perimenopause transition in their early to mid-40s. Full menopause is officially reached after 12 consecutive months without a period, typically around age 51. But symptoms can begin years earlier and linger well beyond.

What Signals the End of Menopause?

The end of menopause isn't just about cycles stopping — it's about your hormones reaching new baselines. Many women still experience symptoms post-menopause, and this is where personalized testing and support become vital.

Skip the Hormones, Embrace the Natural Path

Instead of forcing balance with external hormones, we offer natural therapies that support your body's innate wisdom. Below are our top strategies and products — available exclusively at Optimal Health Network — to help you feel vibrant, clear, and strong.

  1. Magnesium: The Menopause Mineral

    magnesium

    Symptoms like insomnia, irritability, headaches, and joint pain are common due to shifting hormone levels and increased inflammation.

    ▶︎ Try: Ortho Reacted Magnesium (60 capsules)

    Magnesium helps calm the nervous system, relax tight muscles, support bone health, and improve sleep quality.

     
  2. Melatonin: Reset Your Sleep and Mood

    melatonin

    Melatonin levels naturally decline with age, which can wreak havoc on sleep cycles and mood stability.

    ▶︎ Try: Ortho Melatonin (100 tablets)

    Our clean, bioavailable melatonin supplements help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer — while also gently supporting hormone rhythms.

  3. Rhubestryn: Non-Hormonal Relief for Hot Flashes

    Rhubestryn

    If hot flashes, night sweats, and mood fluctuations are interfering with your daily life, Rhubestryn offers safe, natural relief.

    ▶︎ Try: Ortho Rhubestryn (30 capsules)

    Backed by clinical research, this supplement supports estrogen receptor pathways without altering hormone levels, maintains a normal inflammatory balance, and provides antioxidant support to help women navigate the challenges of menopause with greater ease and well-being.

     
  4. Wild Yam Complex: Botanical Support for Hormonal Harmony

    wild yam complex

    Herbs like wild yam, shatavari, and black cohosh have long supported women's reproductive health through transitions such as menopause.

    ▶︎ Try: Standard Process MediHerb Wild Yam Complex

    Helps ease perimenopausal discomfort, irregular cycles, and low mood — all without hormones.

     
  5. Vitamin D3 with K2: For Bones, Mood, and Hormonal Health

    Vitamin D3 with K2

    Vitamin D is a cornerstone nutrient for menopausal wellness. Deficiencies can worsen mood swings, increase bone loss, and slow immune resilience.

    ▶︎ Try: Ortho Liquid Vitamin D3 with K2

    This formula ensures optimal calcium absorption and supports mood and cognitive clarity.

     
  6. Precision Testing: The Postmenopause Hormone Panel

    Postmenopause Hormone Panel

    One of the most empowering tools available for menopausal women is targeted hormone testing. Our Postmenopause Hormone Panel provides in-depth insights into your estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, and thyroid levels — so you can build a natural protocol that works for your unique body.

    ▶︎ Learn more and order: Postmenopause Hormone Panel

    This panel is ideal for women seeking clarity about persistent symptoms like fatigue, low libido, weight gain, or mood imbalances. Results guide supplement plans, detox strategies, and lifestyle adjustments.

     
  7. Diet and Detox: Ten Days to Optimal Health

    Nutrition is powerful medicine. My book, Ten Days to Optimal Health, offers a simple, effective protocol to reduce inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, and reset your digestive and endocrine systems.

    10-Day Diet
