🤍 Perimenopause: More Than Just Changes to Your Periods
Perimenopause is a natural stage of hormonal transition that can affect many aspects of wellbeing — not just the menstrual cycle.
As hormone levels fluctuate, some women may experience irregular or heavier periods, changes in premenstrual symptoms, hot flushes and night sweats, sleep disturbance, mood changes, difficulty concentrating or “brain fog”, changes in energy, vaginal dryness and changes in sexual wellbeing. Some women also notice changes in weight, skin or hair during this time.
Symptoms can vary considerably between women, both in their type and severity. Not every symptom is necessarily related to perimenopause, so persistent or concerning changes deserve appropriate assessment to exclude other possible causes.
Individualised medical care can help you understand the changes you are experiencing and discuss evidence-based options to manage symptoms and support your health through this transition.
Dr Kavita Maravar provides personalised care for women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond, with a focus on informed choices, symptom management and long-term wellbeing. 🌿
