Falling asleep isn't your problem. It's 3am.
You fall asleep fine. Then — 3:07, wide awake. Mind racing, too warm, staring at the ceiling doing tomorrow's math. If your nights changed somewhere in your early 40s, there's a reason — and it isn't stress, and it isn't age.

What we can tell you about the bottles.
Two ingredients, both printed
Magnesium glycinate and organic ashwagandha root, each with its dose on the label. No proprietary blends, which means no hiding a token amount of the expensive one behind a blend name.
Made and shipped in the US
Bottled and labelled to our specification by our US fulfilment partner, and shipped from their facility — not repacked in a spare room.
Made in an FDA-registered US facility
Both bottles are made in an FDA-registered manufacturing facility in the United States and shipped from a US fulfilment centre. To be precise about what that means: FDA registration means the facility is on file with the FDA and subject to its rules. It is not FDA approval — no dietary supplement is FDA approved, ours included, and any brand telling you otherwise is wrong.
Is this you?
- You fall asleep fine. It's 3am that wakes you.
- Your cycle is still more or less regular, so nobody has said the word perimenopause to you.
- You already tried magnesium. It helped a little, and not enough.
- Melatonin left you groggy at 6am and still awake at 3.
- You are not ready to shop from a brand with the word menopause on the bottle.
If three of those are true, you are not an edge case. You are the person this was built for.
See the Protocol →You were right about magnesium. You were just missing the other half.
Magnesium glycinate is the right instinct — it's the mineral your nervous system runs on, and as estrogen shifts, you burn through it faster. But the 3am wake-up isn't only a mineral problem. The second half of the night is a cortisol problem: as calming signals fade, nighttime stress hormones rise — and that's the spike that snaps you awake. The Night Protocol pairs the mineral with the adaptogen. Two bottles. Two ingredients you can pronounce. One ritual.
The Mineral
Magnesium glycinate
275mg elemental magnesium from 2,500mg glycinate · 90 capsules
The nervous-system mineral. Three capsules before bed anchor your night.
$49.90 bought on its own
The Adaptogen
Organic ashwagandha root + black pepper
650mg organic root per capsule — 1,300mg daily · 60 capsules
The other half. One capsule morning, one evening — working around the clock on the stress hormone that spikes at night.
$49.90 bought on its own
$99.80 bought separately. $59 together.
Your ritual
With breakfast
1 capsule
The Adaptogen
20–30 minutes before your meal. Starts the day's work on the stress hormone.
With dinner
1 capsule
The Adaptogen
20–30 minutes before your meal. Carries that work into the night.
Before bed
3 capsules
The Mineral
Magnesium glycinate to anchor your night.
Thirty days in each bottle. The adaptogen works around the clock on the stress hormone; the mineral anchors your night. This is a system, not a sleeping pill — it is built to work over two to three weeks rather than knock you out on night one.
Two ingredients. Both at their full dose.
Every dose on the label
| Magnesium glycinate | 275mg elemental magnesium · 3 capsules nightly |
| Organic ashwagandha root | 1,300mg · 1 capsule morning, 1 evening |
| Organic black pepper | 5mg per capsule |
Excipients are standard capsule ingredients, printed in full on each bottle.
- No melatonin — no 6am grogginess
- No hormones
- No sedatives
- No proprietary blends
- Nothing you can't pronounce
Built on published research, not promises.
In a study of nearly 50,000 women, sleep disturbance emerged as a core symptom of the menopause transition — independent of hot flashes.
Magnesium glycinate is one of the most absorbable forms of the mineral your nervous system runs on. Every capsule serving: 275mg elemental magnesium from 2,500mg glycinate.
Randomized controlled trials of ashwagandha root report improvements in sleep quality and perceived stress, with effects building over weeks of consistent use. The Protocol delivers 1,300mg of organic root daily — every dose on the label.

You've probably tried some of these.
| Criteria | Melatonin gummies | Plain magnesium | Hormone therapy | The Night Protocol |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Built for the 3am wake-up | — helps you fall asleep, not stay asleep | Partly — one half of the picture | Ask your doctor | ✓ designed for the second half of the night |
| Addresses the nighttime stress hormone | — | — | Ask your doctor | ✓ the adaptogen, morning and evening |
| Morning grogginess | Common | None | Varies | None — melatonin-free |
| Hormone-free | ✓ | ✓ | — | ✓ |
| Every dose on the label | Often blends | ✓ | Prescription | ✓ two ingredients, full doses |
Hormone therapy is a medical option many women benefit from — that conversation belongs with your doctor. The Night Protocol works alongside, not instead of, anything your doctor prescribes.
A system, not a sleeping pill.
We would rather tell you how this actually works than sell you a first night you won't get. The mineral and the adaptogen work on different clocks, and the protocol is built around both.
-
Nights 1–7
Get the timing boring
Adaptogen with breakfast and with dinner. Mineral three capsules before bed. Week one is about building the habit, not about judging the results — take both every day, including the days nothing feels different.
-
Weeks 2–3
The adaptogen half catches up
Published trials on ashwagandha typically run six to eight weeks. This is not a same-night ingredient and we won't pretend it is — the cortisol side of the protocol is the slow half, by design.
-
Week 4 and on
Both bottles run out together
Thirty days in each, deliberately. If the ritual has earned its place on your nightstand, a subscription keeps it there without you having to think about it. If it hasn't, the 90-night guarantee is still open.

No, you're not too young for this.
It's called perimenopause — and it can start 8–10 years before menopause, while your cycle is still regular. Disrupted sleep is one of its earliest and most common signs: a study of nearly 50,000 women found sleep disturbance is a core symptom of the menopause transition, independent of hot flashes — and often harder on quality of life. Your 3am wake-up has a name. That's the first step to fixing it.
Ninety nights. Sleep on it.
We tell you upfront that this builds over two to three weeks rather than knocking you out on night one. A 30-day guarantee would be a trick under those terms, so you get ninety nights — long enough to judge it properly, on your own nights, in your own bed.
- Email support@perivela.com any time inside ninety nights of your first order.
- Tell us it didn't work. That's the whole process — no form, no questionnaire, no talking you out of it.
- We refund you and you keep the bottles. Return shipping on two half-used supplement bottles helps nobody.
Two bottles. Thirty nights. One decision.

What women ask us
Am I in perimenopause?
We can't tell you that — only a clinician can. What we can tell you: perimenopause can begin 8–10 years before menopause, often while your cycle is still regular, and disrupted sleep is one of its earliest and most common signs. If your nights changed in your early 40s, it's a conversation worth having with your doctor.
Why are there no reviews on this page?
Because we only publish reviews we have earned. Buying a wall of five stars, or inventing a customer with a stock photo and a first name, is exactly the thing that made you sceptical of this category — and it is the one thing we will not do. What you get instead is every dose printed on the label, the published research the ingredients rest on, and ninety nights to judge it on your own nights. The reviews that appear here will be real ones.
Why two bottles?
Because each ingredient gets its full dose — no compromise blend squeezed into one capsule. They also work on different schedules: the adaptogen goes to work morning and evening (one capsule with breakfast, one with dinner), and the mineral anchors your night (three capsules before bed). Both bottles run out on the same day, thirty days in.
Who makes it?
Perivela is made by Cloud Venture Holdings LLC in Sheridan, Wyoming. The capsules are made and bottled to our specification by our US fulfilment partner, and every order ships from their facility. Questions about any of that go to support@perivela.com and reach a person.
Why no melatonin?
Melatonin mostly helps you fall asleep. That was never your problem. The 3am wake-up is about staying asleep — and for that, melatonin does little except add morning grogginess. We built the Protocol for the second half of the night instead.
Is this a menopause product?
It's built for perimenopause — the years before — though it works across the transition. If every product you've seen has a silver-haired woman on the label and you're 44 with a regular cycle, this one's for you.
Is it safe with my medications?
Ask your doctor — always, and we mean that. In particular, talk to your doctor before taking ashwagandha if you are pregnant or nursing, take thyroid medication, sedatives, or immunosuppressants. Bring the labels; every dose is printed on them.
Does it replace hormone therapy?
No — and it isn't trying to. Hormone therapy is a medical decision between you and your doctor, and many women benefit from it. The Night Protocol is hormone-free and works alongside, not instead of, anything your doctor prescribes.
When will I notice a difference?
Honest answer: this builds. Some women notice calmer evenings in the first week, but the pattern most report in the published research builds over two to three weeks of consistent use. That's why the guarantee is 90 nights, not 30.
Shipping and returns?
Free US shipping on every order, shipped from a US fulfillment center. 90-night money-back guarantee: if your nights aren't better, email us and we refund you — no forms, no return shipping.
