10 Signs of Premenopause.
1.Irregular periods – Your cycle might get shorter, longer, heavier, lighter, or just randomly skip months. It’s like your uterus is winging it now.
2.Hot flashes – That sudden “I’m on fire” feeling, sometimes followed by chills. Can happen day or night and make you want to live in front of a fan.
3.Night sweats – Waking up drenched like you just ran a marathon in your sleep. Hello, ruined sheets.
4.Mood swings – One minute you’re fine, the next you’re crying over a toilet paper commercial or ready to fight someone over the thermostat.
5.Trouble sleeping – Even if you’re exhausted, falling asleep or staying asleep becomes a nightly battle.
6.Brain fog – Forgetting why you walked into a room, losing your keys (again), or struggling to find words. Yes, it’s a real thing.
7.Vaginal dryness or discomfort – Things might feel drier down there, and s*x can suddenly become less fun (or even uncomfortable).
8.Lower s*x drive – Sometimes you’re just… not in the mood. Like, ever. Hormones are rude.
9.Weight gain (especially around the middle) – Even if you haven’t changed your habits, your body decides to redecorate with extra belly fluff.
10Hair changes – Thinning on your head, or (fun bonus) random chin hairs that appear out of nowhere like uninvited guests.
If any of these sound familiar, it might be worth chatting with your doctor — they can help figure out if it’s perimenopause or something else. Or chat up here.🤍
