About
Melissa White, a degree-qualified clinical naturopath works exclusively with complex cases and forward focused with women in perimenopause — nothing else, nothing broader. That choice was made deliberately.
“Perimenopause is where I've seen the most complexity, the most dismissal, and the most women who are told their results are ‘normal’ while nothing about how they feel is normal at all”.
The short version.
“Most practitioners treat what they can see. We investigate what they can't”.
We meet you where you’re at.
We Prescribe. You Pay. They Post.
What working with me looks like
What to expect
-
I got tired of watching women get "normal" bloodwork and a shrug, when what they needed was someone willing to look at what wasn't being measured.
I don't treat the symptom in front of me. I look at what's underneath it:
Your nervous system
Your metabolic response
Your gut
How you're clearing hormones
Your muscle and cardiovascular health
More++
And what's been quietly under-resourced for years, long before perimenopause or your symptoms turned up.
-
Your hormones have been compensating for something — and they've been doing it for a long time. The decade of broken sleep. The iron that's been sitting at the bottom of the range since your last pregnancy. The gut that's never quite been right.
None of it caused problems while your hormones were steady enough to absorb it. When that steadiness goes, whatever they were covering for finally shows itself.
That's usually what you're feeling. Not a new problem — an old one, uncovered.
Perimenopause is the most common time it happens. It isn't the only one. A pregnancy, a diagnosis, a year that took more than it gave — anything that knocks the body off balance can uncover it. Same investigation, whatever set it off. -
I start with pathology. Standard labs, read functionally — the ranges that come back "normal" often aren't optimal, and that gap is where most of the useful information sits. If a functional test is genuinely indicated, we'll discuss it properly first. I don't order them by default.
Then I spend between one and three hours on your case before I prescribe anything. Reading your labs, your history, and your symptom picture together until the pattern makes sense.
From there we rebuild — herbs, nutrients, food, and lifestyle, adjusted as things shift. Your prescription is delivered to your door. Everything lives in your patient portal: your protocol, your check-ins, and direct messaging so you're not waiting until the next appointment to ask a question.
The whole practice is telehealth, so where you live doesn't limit who you can see. If you're on MHT, your prescribing doctor stays part of the team — I work with them, not around them. Same with anyone else in your care: I refer and collaborate where it serves you.
Complex, scattered, hard-to-explain symptoms aren't a liability in my clinic — they're what I'm trained for. -

Perimenopause is a great cover story. Half of what it gets blamed for overlaps with other chronic conditions.
