FAQ
Straight answers, including the awkward ones
What this site is, what it is not, how we make money, and what to do when you need more than a website.
Is this site for me if I am still having periods?
Yes. Perimenopause starts before periods stop. The guides on sleep, mood, brain fog and the 40s are written for exactly that stage.
Do I need a blood test to know I am in perimenopause?
Usually not. If you are over 45 with typical symptoms, the pattern of cycles and symptoms is more useful than a hormone level. Testing can help in specific situations, such as suspected early menopause.
Can I use this instead of seeing a doctor?
No. We explain options and help you prepare, but we do not diagnose or prescribe. Any treatment decision should be made with a qualified clinician who knows your history.
Are the guides free?
Yes. The symptom check and all guides are free, with no signup. We charge for structured products — the 14-Day Reset and the membership — not for basic information.
How do you make money?
Paid programs, workplace workshops, and membership. We do not sell supplements, take affiliate fees for treatments, or sell your email.
Is my symptom check result private?
Yes. The answers stay in your browser unless you choose to email them to yourself. We do not see individual answers.
Do you cover hormone therapy?
We explain what it is, who it may suit, and what to ask. We do not recommend a specific dose or tell you to start or stop. That conversation needs your history and a clinician.
What if I am in crisis?
If you are thinking about harming yourself, call emergency services or go to an emergency department. In the US, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
Can my workplace book a session?
Yes. See the workplaces page. We run lunch-and-learns, manager briefings and policy reviews, with pricing scoped after a short call.
How do I request a correction?
Email admin@clearruleslabs.com with the page URL and what is wrong. We will check it against the source and update the page if needed.
