Signs You May Be in Perimenopause

Perimenopause typically begins in your 40s (sometimes late 30s) and can last 4-10 years before menopause. Here are the key signs:

Common Symptoms

  • Irregular periods (longer, shorter, heavier, or lighter)
  • Hot flashes and night sweats
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Mood changes, irritability, or anxiety
  • Brain fog or memory issues
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Decreased sex drive
  • Weight gain, especially around the midsection

How to Confirm It

Talk to your doctor — they can order hormone tests including:

  • FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone)
  • Estrogen levels
  • Thyroid function (to rule out other causes)

Helpful Resources & Products

  • Midi Health (joinmidi.com) — telehealth platform specializing in perimenopause care
  • Elektra Health — another menopause-focused telehealth service
  • Let's Talk Menopause (nonprofit) — free educational resources
  • Evernow — app-based hormone care and prescriptions

Symptom Tracking

  • Clue app or Balance app by Dr. Louise Newson — great for logging symptoms to share with your doctor

A healthcare provider can give you a definitive assessment! 💙
