At Evernow, about a third of women come to us in perimenopause. Menopause is actually just one day in a womans life! It is defined as 12 months of no periods (in women with a uterus). Perimenopause is the time leading up to menopause when symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats and irregular periods start happening. While many people know something about menopause, perimenopause, and how to manage it, can still be a bit of a mystery.
1. When people think of menopausal and perimenopausal symptoms, they tend to think of hot flashes and night sweats. However, there are other common symptoms women experience such as brain fog, mood swings (including feeling more irritable), poor sleep, anxiety and depression. In our own research, these symptoms are more common in women going through perimenopause, than the traditional hot flashes and night sweats.
