Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, when your hormones – particularly oestrogen and progesterone – start to fluctuate. It can begin in your late 30s to early 40s, though the symptoms may not always be obvious at first.
This stage can last anywhere from a few months to several years. While it’s a natural process, the symptoms can be incredibly disruptive to your work, relationships, energy levels and overall quality of life.
That’s where we come in.
Common Symptoms of Perimenopause
Perimenopause affects every woman differently. You may experience just a few mild symptoms –
or you might feel as though your whole body and mind have changed overnight.
Some of the most common signs include:
Irregular or heavier periods
Hot flushes and night sweats
Anxiety, irritability or low mood
Poor sleep or insomnia
Brain fog or forgetfulness
Fatigue and low energy
Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
Breast tenderness
Brain fog or forgetfulness
Fatigue and low energy
Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
Increased sensitivity to stress
Many women are surprised to learn that these symptoms are related to perimenopause.
That’s why early recognition and support is so important.
