Perimenopause can make you feel like something is seriously wrong with your body.
Heart palpitations. Sudden anxiety. Dizziness. Tingling. Tinnitus. Itchy skin. Brain fog so bad you can’t finish a sentence.
I experienced many of these symptoms myself when I entered early perimenopause at 37. My blood tests came back “normal”, yet I knew I wasn’t okay.
Hormonal changes can affect your brain, nervous system, joints, skin, heart, sleep and mood. It’s far bigger than hot flushes and irregular periods.
You’re not imagining it. You’re not losing your mind. And you deserve to be taken seriously.
Always get new, severe or persistent symptoms checked rather than assuming they’re hormonal.
