Weight Loss During Perimenopause & Menopause: A Hormone-Smart Plan

Intro
If “eat less, move more” stopped working, your hormones likely changed the rules. A menopause-smart plan respects that—and still gets results.

The Hormone–Weight Connection
• Lower estrogen can reduce insulin sensitivity and shift fat storage centrally
• Estradiol decline can slow metabolism and make maintenance tougher

Seven Ways To Lean Out In Midlife
• 20–30 g protein per meal
• Two to four days of strength, plus zone-2/cardio
• Less added sugar and refined carbs
• Whole-food fats to regulate appetite
• Fatty fish for omega-3s
• Deliberate stress management
• Protect 7–9 hours of sleep

When Lifestyle Isn’t Enough
After labs and a full review, HOOT HRT can add prescription options, including GLP-1 medications, when appropriate. Telehealth oversight and home delivery keep it simple.
