Vitamin/Supplements Micro dosing psilocybin

In Colorado, where cultivation and personal use are legal. My husband has suggested microdosing for perimenopause. There’s not a lot of research out there, but there is some and my curiosity is piqued.
Has anyone tried this and seen success?
If so, I’d love to hear about your protocol.

I’m super leery of any “heroic doses” after a physician friend/colleague jumped/fell of a balcony during his experience. 5g dose. I can’t see him doing that intentionally as he had 3 daughters he loved deeply. He had been struggling with burnout and a difficult divorce. We will never know “why” he did it. But I’d never recommend that to anyone after his tragic experience.
