What is a Peri Toolkit: 

A Peri Toolkit is your set of tools, both physical and nonphysical, that help support you as you go through the menopause transition. There are a lot of treatment options and lifestyle modifications that can dramatically improve your perimenopause experience. Having these sets of tools and strategies can help you navigate the menopause transition with a sense of empowerment.  

 

In my Peri toolkit: 

- I always carry extra tampons with me because an unexpected period can happen at any time! 

- Estradiol patch and oral progesterone that help me feel more balanced by filling my hormone tank just enough to prevent those dips that can trigger symptoms.  

- Happy Fiber® for extra fiber to help meet my fiber goals which support my gut microbiome.* 

- Goddess Glow Beauty Collagen ®: My collagen supplement to support my skin.* 

- My Gabby Bernstein coaching app to help support nervous system regulation. 

- My Peloton bike and free weights to support my heart health, mood, sleep, and muscle development.  

- Big stainless water bottle to stay well hydrated during the day. 

 

Why should women create their own peri toolkit to help with their symptoms? 

I want all women to create their own peri toolkit so that they can feel empowered during this time and have the tools readily available to feel their best.
