What is Perimenopause?
Perimenopause is a natural stage in a woman’s life, usually beginning in the 40s (sometimes earlier), where hormone levels start to fluctuate before menopause.
It can affect many aspects of health — from menstrual changes to sleep, mood, and long-term wellbeing.
Common experiences include:
• Irregular periods
• Hot flushes & night sweats
• Mood changes or anxiety
• Sleep disturbances
• Brain fog
The good news? With the right support, lifestyle changes, and medical guidance, you can navigate this phase with confidence.
Prioritise your health:
• Stay active
• Eat a balanced diet (including calcium & vitamin D)
• Get quality sleep
• Manage stress
• Attend regular check-ups
Speak to a healthcare professional if you notice:
• Very heavy or prolonged bleeding
• Bleeding after a long gap
• Symptoms affecting your daily life
Every woman’s journey is unique you don’t have to go through it alone.
