​Peri-menopause is the period leading up to menopause and can begin several years before menstruation stops completely, typically starting in a woman's 40s but sometimes earlier.

 

During this phase, oestrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate, causing irregular periods and various menopausal symptoms.

​

Some of the more common symptoms during perimenopause:

​

• Irregular menstrual cycles (shorter or longer than usual)

• Hot flashes and night sweats

• Mood swings and irritability

• Sleep disturbances (insomnia)

• Vaginal dryness and discomfort during sex

• Decreased libido

• Weight gain, particularly around the abdomen

• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating

• Increased PMS-like symptoms
