Take the 90-Second AssessmentDoes This Sound Familiar?
Has a doctor told you your labs are “normal” and handed you an antidepressant instead of an answer?
Are you exhausted no matter how much sleep you get?
Have your cycles turned unpredictable — heavier, lighter, or gone missing?
Are you gaining weight even though you’re eating the same as you always have?
Do you wake up at 3am, wired and exhausted at the same time?
Does your brain feel like it’s wrapped in cotton lately?
Now, Imagine Understanding Your Own Body
Imagine walking into your next appointment already knowing which of your five hormones are shifting, which labs actually matter, and what the real evidence says about hormone therapy — not the 2002 headlines, the current data. Imagine knowing the difference between a lab result that’s “in range” and one that’s actually optimal for you. Imagine having the exact words to ask for the testing you need, and getting a straight answer instead of a shrug. That’s not a fantasy. That’s what 3.5 hours and the right map can do.
A Message From Dr. Seth Osgood, DNP, FNP-BC, IFM-CP
I built GrassRoots Functional Medicine after conventional medicine dismissed me. I spent years chasing an answer for symptoms that got written off as stress and anxiety — until we finally found the real cause: chronic Lyme disease. I know what it feels like to be told your labs are normal when you know something is wrong. That experience is why I do this work. As a functional medicine clinician with a Doctor of Nursing Practice, board certification as a Family Nurse Practitioner, and certification through the Institute for Functional Medicine, I built Perimenopause Unmasked to give you the clinical picture I wish someone had handed me — the hormones, the testing, the evidence on hormone therapy — in language you can use with your own doctor. You don’t need to become a clinician. You need someone in your corner who already is one.
What Patients Say About Working With Dr. Osgood
These are verified Google reviews from patients of GrassRoots Functional Medicine, describing personalized clinical care. Individual results vary. This course is education, not treatment.
"I could barely get out of bed and couldn’t make it through the day without a long nap. I was crying every day… Now I feel completely amazing and full of energy and I’m the happiest I have been in years… I would urge anyone going through hormonal imbalances… take this step."
"9 months ago I could barely walk through the door. My health and mental health were rock bottom. Today I’m feeling like a new person… I have more energy, I’ve lost 35lbs… my outlook has changed from bleak and depressed to positive."
"Dr. Osgood is attentive, responsive, really listens… If you know something’s not right and you’re not getting the answers or results from your current health care providers, see Dr. Osgood."
"From the moment I walked in, I felt truly heard and cared for in a way that is rare in healthcare today… They don’t just hand out quick fixes—they dig deep to uncover the root causes and provide sustainable solutions that actually restore health."
Introducing: Perimenopause Unmasked
The Complete Clinical Picture of What’s Happening in Your Body Between 40 and 55
This is the course I wish I could hand every woman who sits across from me feeling dismissed. Twelve lessons. The five hormones. The brain. The metabolism. The GLP-1 conversation nobody’s having honestly. The cardiovascular window nobody’s checking. The testing that actually matters. The hormone therapy conversation, evidence-based instead of fear-based. Even the peptide question, answered straight instead of hyped on Instagram. By the end, you’ll walk into an appointment better prepared than most of the ones you’ve walked out of.
Is Perimenopause Unmasked Right for You?
This Course Is For You If:
- You’re 40–55 and something in your body has clearly shifted

- You want the clinical picture, not another influencer’s opinion
- You’re willing to bring what you learn into a real conversation with your doctor
- You want the evidence on hormone therapy, not the fear headlines from 2002
This Course Is NOT For You If:

- You want someone to just tell you what to do without understanding why
- You’re not experiencing perimenopausal symptoms — this course is built for this specific transition
- You need urgent medical care right now — this is education, not emergency care; see a clinician first

Take the 90-Second AssessmentHere’s Exactly What You’ll Learn Inside
01 Lesson 1: What Perimenopause Actually Is (and Why Your Doctor Is Wrong)

06 Lesson 6: The Cardiovascular Window — The 10-Year Risk Your Lipid Panel Misses
- Learn why perimenopause is the most significant cardiovascular window of your life

Perimenopause isn’t only about how you feel — it’s a window.

Most women get told to wait and see. The information in this course is what lets you stop waiting.

Your Questions, Answered
Q: What if I’m not sure I’m actually in perimenopause?
A: That’s exactly what Lesson 1 covers. Perimenopause is diagnosed by symptoms, not age or a single lab — you’ll learn how to recognize your own pattern.
Q: Who is teaching this course?
A: Dr. Seth Osgood, a functional medicine clinician and nurse practitioner (DNP, FNP-BC, IFM-CP) who has spent over a decade helping women navigate this transition.
Q: How much time will this take?
A: About 3.5 hours across 12 lessons (27 short videos). Everything is available immediately — go at your own pace.
Q: Does this course cover hormone therapy?
A: Yes. Lessons 8 and 9 walk through the current evidence on hormone therapy — what the WHI study actually showed, what newer trial data adds, and bioidentical vs. synthetic options — so you can have an informed conversation with your own doctor.
Q: Does this course cover GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy?
A: Yes — Lesson 5 is a full, honest breakdown of what these medications do, how they’re commonly mismanaged, and what makes them safe and sustainable if you’re using one.
Q: Does this course cover peptides?
A: Yes — Lesson 10 gives you an honest, evidence-level overview of what peptides are and why foundations have to come first. It’s education, not a personal protocol; any peptide use should be guided by a licensed clinician.
Q: Do I need to buy any supplements to benefit from this course?
A: No. The course and workbook stand on their own. Supplement options are mentioned but never required.
Q: How long do I have access?
A: Lifetime. It’s a one-time payment, and the course is yours to revisit whenever you need it.
Q: What’s your refund policy?
A: 14 days, full refund, no hoops. See the guarantee above.
Q: What if I want more ongoing support than a course can give?
A: You have options. Take the testing panel and doctor scripts into your next appointment and work with your own doctor — that path is free and it works. Or, if you want a clinician in your corner, book a free discovery call and we’ll talk through what actually fits. Neither is required to get everything this course promises.
Q: Is this a substitute for medical care?
A: No. This course is educational — it is not a diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for care from a licensed clinician. Bring what you learn to your own doctor or ours.
