Perimenopause & Menopause
You're not losing your mind. But it sure feels that way sometimes. Hot flashes that wake you up drenched at 3 a.m. Brain fog so thick you forget what you were saying mid-sentence. Irritability that makes you snap at people you love—and then feel terrible about it.
Libido? What libido.
Sleep that won't come, no matter how tired you are. And the fatigue. God, the fatigue.
You're in perimenopause or menopause. And no one prepared you for this.
Puberty got all the attention—the talks, the books, the cultural acknowledgment. But this transition? You're supposed to just figure it out. Power through. "It's normal."
Sure, it's normal. But that doesn't mean you have to suffer through it.
And winter makes everything harder. The darkness affects your mood. The cold taxes your energy. The holiday stress amplifies every symptom.
This isn't a disease. It's a transition. A massive recalibration. Your body is shifting into a new phase—one that Chinese Medicine views as a time of deep inner wisdom and power.
But right now? You just want to feel like yourself again.
