Achieving Pregnancy During Perimenopause

Elizabeth Willett - M.A., Certified Herbalist
July 18, 2021
Reviewed by Christine Traxler, MD

Search the internet using just the word perimenopause and imbedded in many links will be words like disease and condition. Know this, the hormonal transition of perimenopause is perfectly natural and normal which means it is neither a disease, nor a condition.

Perimenopause is the natural cycle of womanhood leading up to menopause during which time sex hormones decline. Despite this time frame being viewed as the normal beginning of the โ€œend in a womanโ€™s reproductive yearsโ€, a woman can still become pregnant when perimenopausal because regular ovulation may continue.

The Importance of Pregnancy Preparation in Perimenopause

It is a known fact that more women than ever are waiting to conceive for a variety of reasons. Science has proven fertility health can begin to decline rapidly around the age of 40 and after, making it especially important to prepare for pregnancy prior to conception. Preconception health is known to influence how a woman progresses through perimenopause and enters menopause and will also impact pregnancy health.

Preconception hormonally-driven symptoms, including menstrual cycle changes, are the main reason women seek additional testing or reach out to their healthcare providers for support. While these symptoms are important to know about, it is equally as important to know that presentation and severity of perimenopausal symptoms varies greatly from woman to woman.

โ€œA woman may go in and out of a perimenopausal state for as many as 10-13 years before she arrives at true menopause (the average age of which is 52 in the US). This means that it is perfectly normal, in fact natural, for a woman as young as 40 to begin feeling foreign and seemingly inexplicable changes in her body and emotions. The important thing is to recognize that symptoms, at any age, are the bodyโ€™s way of telling you that it is not getting the support it needs.โ€ ~ Marcelle Pick, OB/GYN, NP

The following guide will share the symptoms briefly referred to above and how to naturally support the body in preparation for pregnancy when traveling through perimenopause. It is important to look at fertility health from a holistic perspective โ€“ with the belief that our fertility is influenced by the interconnection of the physical body, the mind, spirit and the environment in which we live; all of these things work together to lead us to overall health and well-being.

The Symptoms – Determining Perimenopause

Age is a key factor in determining if a woman is perimenopausal. There are also a variety of symptoms reported by women that doctors may use in part to determine if a woman is perimenopausal. These symptoms are only truly useful in determining perimenopause in the absence of other reproductive health issues.

The symptoms are:

  • irregular menstrual cycles (sporadic/changing menstruation and irregular ovulation)
  • breast tenderness
  • low libido
  • sleep disturbances
  • hot flashes/night sweats
  • heightened emotional state in the absence of obvious stressors
  • low energy levels
  • loss of vaginal and uterine tone and changing tissue health due to a decrease in estrogen which can lead to vaginal dryness, increase incidents of infection, urinary frequency, changes in sexual arousal and desire, painful intercourse
  • heart palpitations

There are a number of women who experience only a few of these symptoms and others who unfortunately experience many of them. It is normal during perimenopause for periods to become irregular and differ from cycle to cycle. What can be challenging in pinning down perimenopause as a culprit for the above symptoms, is that many other health problems may exhibit similar symptoms. Having a fertility health condition (uterine fibroids, endometriosis, PCOS, etc.) can also contribute to irregular menstrual cycles and disordered ovulation. Ruling out other health problems or fertility issues as the cause for the symptoms is going to be helpful, especially if a woman is wanting to conceive during perimenopause.

So, how can these symptoms be avoided and reproductive health supported during this transition?

As mentioned earlier, natural pregnancy can still occur in perimenopause. Dr. Marcelle Pick, OB/GYN NP, reminds us that โ€œ…it is always good to remember that perimenopause is a volatile time and numbers are not necessarily your destiny…โ€ Maintaining hormone levels optimal for conception and pregnancy may require a stronger commitment to a natural pregnancy preparation program and the goal of becoming a mother.

Natural Pregnancy Preparation Program for Perimenopause

A main goal during perimenopause is to focus your natural fertility program on supporting adrenal gland and liver health. It is equally important to eat a nutrient-dense diet, manage stress, support emotional health, and exercise. Keep reading to learn why…

Adrenal Health

The adrenal glands, resting atop the kidneys, release hormones in response to stress. Chronic stress diminishes their health, which in turn impacts fertility health and hormone balance shares Linda Page, ND, PhD, author and educator, in her book Healthy Healing. What many may not know is that the ovaries begin to cease producing estrogen in perimenopause (they completely do so in menopause) at which time the adrenal glands take over estrogen production.

The adrenal glands work to support not only a healthy stress response during perimenopause, but also hormonal balance which is important for a healthy menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Supporting their function during this time may also help you avoid a symptom-ridden transition to menopause when the time comes.

You will not regret taking the time to support your adrenal health! It is also critical to manage stress and support your emotional health! The bottom line is thisโ€ฆ each and every person is affected by stress emotionally and in their everyday lives in a different way. One personโ€™s heavy or chronic stress may be mild to another. It is important to find ways to diligently work to lower stress levels every day that suit your needs.

Liver Health

At the age of 40 or older, the liver (the master detoxifier), has been exposed to many years worth of both nutritive substances and toxins. It has continually worked for many years (and hopefully many more) breaking down and expelling excess hormones and toxins circulating within body. It also converts food, fluid, and the air you breathe (including that which the body absorbs through the air we breathe) into the life-sustaining vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and nutrients that fuel and protect the body.

When overworked, or tired it can cause a myriad of symptoms that many associate with hormonal imbalance. These symptoms can certainly exacerbate fertility health issues and efforts to achieve hormonal balance in perimenopause.

It is vital to support liver health in perimenopause. A foundational way to encourage hormone balance and nourish the liver is Fertility Cleansing. Performing a Fertility Cleanse that utilizes specific herbal blends to cleanse the liver and uterus of excess hormones and tissues is a good way to prepare for pregnancy. Fertility cleansing focuses on rejuvenating liver health and preparing the uterus for pregnancy and implantation of an embryo. It is also important to consciously reduce exposure to xenohormones which are those toxins the liver continuously works to break down and expel.

Nutrition

A nutrient-dense, whole food Fertility Diet that is rich in fresh leafy vegetables and fruit, whole grains, nuts and seeds, fiber, and moderate amounts of lean organic animal products is important for overall health and vitality, fertility health as well as egg and sperm health. A Fertility Diet provides nutrients specific to perimenopausal hormone balance and health that includeโ€ฆ

  • Bioflavonoids – to reduce hot flashes, regulate moods and balance estrogen levels.
  • Calcium – to maintain bone strength and support bone growth (in perimenopause and pregnancy).
  • Boron – to help harden bones (bone loss is one major concern for women in menopause).
  • Essential Fatty Acids, EFAs, – the good fats – cholesterol from high-quality fats helps the body produce hormones, supports smooth muscle, brain and nervous system health, and impacts every body systemโ€™s health.
  • Hydration – Drink a minimum of eight 8oz. glasses of water every day, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for added liver support. Dehydration leads to a decrease in circulation within the body, as well as many other issues. Take water with you wherever you goโ€ฆ NOT in a plastic bottle though!

Additional tips…
Think about periodically eating flax seeds (Linum usitatissimum). Within a flax seed is a thin black layer/sheath called a lignan that is instrumental in supporting hormone metabolism according to Harvard educated pioneer in integrative medicine Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D.. Flax is also high in fiber which helps the body rid itself of endogenous estrogens/xenoestrogens. Freshly grind whole flax seeds at home or purchase a quality oil with the lignans included.

Take your wholefood multivitamin and quality omega-3 supplement daily as well!

Limit, or Avoid; conventional meat, especially red meats which tend to be high in hormones – choose free-range, organic chicken and coldwater fish like Wild Alaskan Salmon, and avoid alcohol, tobacco, caffeine and highly processed foods. Avoid fried foods as well (eat them raw, steam or bake them).

Hormonal Balance

Herbs and nutritional supplements are able to offer tremendous benefit when eating a clean, whole food diet and living a healthy lifestyle. Consider the following herbs to support hormonal balance during perimenopause:

Herbs to offer additional support are:
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) – Maca is considered a foundational fertility superfood that provides 31 different minerals and 60 different micronutrients for sperm and egg health support, energy and libido. Maca has been traditionally used to support hormone balance by nourishing the endocrine and immune systems, while also promoting a healthy stress response in the body.

Dong Quai (Angelica sinensis) – Dong Quai is a female fertility tonic that โ€œtonifies and strengthens the uterus by regulating hormonal control, improving uterine tone, and improving the timing of the menstrual cycle,โ€ according to Natural Fertility Company founder Hethir Rodriguez, and does so without estrogenic activity. Dong Quai is a reproductive system tonic that encourages circulation to the uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes.

Black Cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) – Black Cohosh is very commonly discussed in conversations about managing hot flashes in perimenopause and menopause. Black Cohosh has also traditionally been used for absent periods, painful menstruation, uterine and ovarian pain and irritation, PMS-induced migraine headaches, congested pelvic conditions and uterine prolapse.

Precaution:

Consider also adding additional supplementsโ€ฆ

B Complex – A complex of B vitamins supports a healthy stress response and overall vitality which can impact emotional health/mood, increase energy, support healthy thyroid function and may be instrumental in reducing hair loss (or facial hair growth).

Royal Jelly – Royal Jelly is a quality nutrient-dense fertility superfood. It contains a myriad of nutrients including pantothenic acid (a member of the B vitamin family, B5) that boosts adrenal health, may be instrumental in curbing perimenopausal weight gain (although not alone), supporting healthy libido and a healthy vaginal environment to reduce vaginal dryness.

Evening Primrose Oil – Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) is known to reduce PMS, support healthy cervical mucus production again to reduce vaginal dryness and alleviate painful intercourse, reduce inflammation and support hormonal balance. EPO also provides a quality source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) that can help with many symptoms of perimenopause.

Natural Progesterone Cream – Bioidentical hormone creams are often used to alleviate โ€œmenopausalโ€ symptoms and may be suggested in perimenopause as well. Consider talking with your healthcare provider about using progesterone cream and seeking guidance on the best dose for your specific need.

Biphasic Menstrual Cycle Support in perimenopause could possibly be the most influential way to impact a healthy menstrual cycle. The FertiliCare Phase 1 & 2 biphasic monthly program contains herbs that have been shown to have an impact on each phase of the menstrual cycle – the follicular phase and luteal phase, as well as regular ovulation. These herbs may also help with perimenopausal symptoms. Four key herbs for supporting perimenopausal hormone balance – liver and menstrual cycle health, ovarian function and libido in these formulas are:

  • Vitex (Vitex agnus-castus) – promotes hormonal balance, normal ovulation, adequate progesterone and prolactin levels, and is helpful in maintaining fertile FSH levels.
  • Tribulus (Tribulus terrestris) – has an affinity for the ovaries and has been found to promote ovulation when used prior to ovulation, as well as increase serum FSH and estradiol in women.
  • Dandelion root and leaf (Taraxacum officinale) – The root, a gentle liver cleanser and tonic that stimulates bile flow and supports the body in metabolizing estrogen: The leaf, nutrient packed and nourishing to the liver.
  • Damiana (Turnera diffusa) – encourages circulation and blood flow to the uterus and vagina to heighten libido – an herbal aphrodisiac.

Egg Health in Perimenopause

At the age of 40 and throughout perimenopause, the ovaries begin to lose their ability to produce mature follicles, estrogen and progesterone. Natural Fertility Info.com Senior Herbalist, Dalene Barton-Schuster, reminds us that egg health and ovarian reserve begin to decline around the age of 37-40 (on average) and throughout perimenopause. It is because of this that we feel it is imperative you work to preserve and increase your egg health during this time.

Exercise

Exercise or movement increases blood flow throughout the body and supports proper oxygenation of the reproductive organs. It also helps to maintain bone mass. Find something to do that you enjoy! Walking, leisurely running, dancing, swimming, or Fertility Yoga are a few fertility friendly exercises.

Learn Fertility Massage

Massage is one of the best natural therapies for increasing blood flow to the reproductive system. Done in the privacy of your own home, Self Fertility Massage can become both a reproductive health and stress-reduction ally for you.

Having a Healthy Pregnancy During Perimenopause

Making healthy prenatal care choices once pregnancy is achieved in perimenopause will help you have the healthiest pregnancy possible and impact the health of your child. Find a doctor or midwife to work with! Specific foods, exercises, stress-reduction tips, affirmations, herbs and nutritional supplements are known to support the bodyโ€™s needs throughout pregnancy.

Closing Thoughts

Perimenopause is considered the preparatory time for the โ€œhormonal hallmark of menopauseโ€, Herbalist Susan Weed acknowledges that menopause = metamorphosis, โ€œthe changeโ€. It is not a time to worry about the changes going on within you, but to honor them and focus on supporting your body in managing them without symptoms.

โ€œIf you are not supporting your hormones through optimal nutrition, detox, good lifestyle habits and emotional release, your systems will begin to break down. This leads to symptoms. Nature intended us to go through hormonal transitions, but it is not natural or necessary to suffer with unbearable, or even uncomfortable health concerns.โ€ ~ Marcelle Pick, OB/GYN NP

Perimenopause is a volatile time during which the choices you make to impact your health may be more important than ever before – especially if you still wish to conceive naturally. Begin to pay attention to the โ€œwholeโ€ you – your body, mind, spirit and the environment in which you live. Conception, pregnancy and having a healthy child when over the age of 40 is possible! You are hopefully now well equipped to meet the demands of your body and if need be, we are here to help you along the way.

๐ŸŒฑ One of my favorite ways to support fertility and hormone health is through herbs. 

Over the past 20+ years that I have been an herbalist I have seen what herbs can do to help turn someoneโ€™s health around. 

When it comes to fertility there are a lot of different herbs that you can use. But they all have different actions. There is no one herb that fits all for fertility. 

That is one of the reasons I make herbal blends & formulas. 

Three of my favorite herbs are vitex, maca and shatavari, but they each have different effects on the body. 

So the key to success with fertility herbs is to first figure out what is going on in your body and then you can pick the right herbal formula for you. 

You can do this by charting your fertility (I have a lot of posts about fertility charting on my feed as well as my website) and also paying attention to your period. ๐Ÿฉธ

What most people donโ€™t understand about low progesterone

Many people don't fully grasp the complexities of low progesterone. 

There are three key factors to consider when aiming to support the body's progesterone production. 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception #1 surrounding progesterone....

It's not widely known that its deficiency is often a result of inadequate ovulation. 

In order for progesterone levels to rise, the body must first ovulate, which triggers the transformation of the follicle into a corpus luteum, responsible for producing progesterone. 

If ovulation doesn't occur, low progesterone is likely to persist since the body doesn't require an increase in progesterone without ovulation.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception #2... the cause of low progesterone can be estrogen dominance.

There is a balance between estrogen and progesterone happening within the body and if there's too much estrogen this can affect a lot of different functions with hormone balance as it pertains to ovulation and progesterone production.

Considering the larger context of the entire fertility cycle is crucial when addressing progesterone production. Instead of solely focusing on supporting it, zooming out and examining all aspects of the cycle is necessary. 

This entails understanding the characteristics of the menstrual period, the length of the follicular and luteal phases, and awareness of ovulation patterns. 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception # 3 Dietary habits contribute significantly to hormone production and balance within the body. 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception #4... Another aspect worth exploring is thyroid function, as it can also impact hormone equilibrium. Regular thyroid testing is therefore recommended to assess its influence on hormonal well-being.

What exactly are uterine fibroids? 

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are noncancerous growths that develop in the muscular wall of the uterus.

These common benign tumors can vary in size and number, ranging from small pea-sized nodules to large masses that can distort the shape and size of the uterus.

Although the exact cause of uterine fibroids is unknown, certain factors like hormonal imbalances, genetics, and estrogen levels are believed to play a role in their development.

While some women with uterine fibroids may experience no symptoms at all, others may suffer from heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, urinary frequency, and various reproductive issues.

Understanding what uterine fibroids are and their potential impact on women's health is crucial for effective management.

๐Ÿฅš In the past, a common belief was that the only factor which determines ovarian and egg health was age. 

Based on new studies, we now know that this may not be true. ๐Ÿคฏ

There are many factors that can have an impact on the health of the ovaries and eggs including environmental factors, hormones in the diet, and stress, just to name a few.

In addition, having healthy fertility is based on many additional aspects to consider, including:
โžก๏ธ Proper circulation
โžก๏ธ A healthy fertility cycle
โžก๏ธ Balanced hormones
โžก๏ธ Healthy eggs

Egg health is one of the cornerstones of healthy fertility. 

The health of your eggs (ova) can affect whether or not fertilization and implantation will occur as well as the viability of a pregnancy.

During the cycle of an eggโ€™s journey towards ovulation, there is a window of opportunity, a period of time, when certain factors can affect the health of the eggs that are preparing for ovulation. โณ

This journey takes about 90 days. 

The steps you take today will impact the health of your eggs 3 months from now. 

That is why I talk so much about taking a MINIMUM of 90 days to prepare for pregnancy or IVF/IUI. 

๐Ÿ™‚ The good news is that there are steps you can take to help support the health of your eggs. There is too much info to put into this tiny caption butโ€ฆ.

Type EGG if you would like me to send you my Egg Health Checklist that takes you through all of the steps to take.๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

So, how do we deal with this?

First, we cleanse and detoxify the body.

By supporting the body's natural ability to eliminate these compounds and excess hormones, we can significantly alleviate the hormonal imbalance.

The human body is in a constant state of detoxification, eliminating chemicals, excess hormones, and other compounds on a daily basis.

This is a natural process that's intrinsic to our biology.

However, based on my research and experience over the past 15 years, it's become apparent that regular cleanses and daily supportive measures can significantly enhance the body's natural detoxification abilities.

BPA is a major concern when it comes to hormone health, and this is just one of the many compounds found in plastics. 

I know it sounds daunting, but it is well worth  the effort to avoid using plastics containing BPA and other hormone-disrupting chemicals.

There are many alternatives available, such as glass or stainless steel containers and water bottles.

You can also look for products labeled "BPA-free" or "phthalate-free". Taking these small steps can help protect your health and the environment. 

But what can we do about our previous exposure? Cleanse, helping the body  naturally remove toxins. Supporting the liver in its ability is a great way to detoxify toxins like BPA, the Fertility Cleanse is great for this. Also eating a diet rich in whole foods and fiber is awesome as well.

Juicing is a game changer.

It's not just about squeezing a few oranges; it's about effortlessly infusing my diet with nutrient-rich veggies every single day.

Beyond the incredible flavors (hello, celery, ginger, turmeric, and a hint of pineapple ๐Ÿ), juicing is my fast-food substitute thatโ€™s both quick and nutritious.

The real game-changer? Investing in a quality juicer. It makes all the difference. My juicer is the J2 from Nama.
