In my practice, I meet women every day who feel confused, dismissed, and simply lost during this significant life change. Many feel relieved just to have someone listen and validate their experiences - symptoms they've been questioning for months or even years.</span></em></div>
<div style="line-height: 138%;"><em><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br>Despite affecting half the world's population, perimenopause and menopause remain shrouded in stigma, particularly in workplaces. A British Medical Association survey of 2,000 women doctors confirmed what I see daily: even healthcare professionals struggle to get adequate support during this transition. The lack of investment in public education, combined with poor communication from health professionals, schools, and workplaces, has created an environment where misinformation thrives and social media algorithms push dubious supplements and unproven treatments.</span></em></div>
<div style="line-height: 138%;"><em><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br>Every aspect of health at every age benefits from nutrition and lifestyle changes, but very few women are provided with the right tools and access to help build positive habits. This is especially critical for menopause - a phase where we hopefully spend several decades, given that periods tend to stop between ages 45-55 and life expectancy for women in the UK is currently around 83 years.</span></em></div>
<div style="line-height: 138%;"><em><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br>My advice to anyone reading this: don't wait until you're 50 to make changes. It's never too early (or too late) to start building the foundation for healthy ageing.</span></em></div>

<div style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Perimenopause is the lead-up to menopause and can last anywhere from two to eight years, starting as early as the late thirties for some women. The average age of perimenopause is 47, but if you're destined to stop your periods around 46, symptoms could begin much earlier.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br>During this time, hormonal fluctuations - especially oestrogen levels - create a wide range of symptoms that many women don't immediately connect to their reproductive health. As we lose most of the eggs we were born with and their numbers drop to a critical level, oestrogen production by the ovaries slows dramatically. This triggers a response in our brain, increasing FSH (Follicular Stimulating Hormone) levels. These hormonal changes are what cause perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br>Symptoms of perimenopause may start long before periods stop completely, impacting mental and physical health. In my practice, I see women experiencing:</span></div>
<ul>
<li style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><strong>Menstrual changes: </strong>Crowding or skipping of cycles, erratic periods, unusually heavy bleeding, or periods that seem to disappear for months then return unexpectedly.</span></li>
<li style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><strong>Physical symptoms: </strong>Hot flushes, night sweats, progressive unwanted weight gain that's harder to shift, low libido, joint aches, and changes in skin and hair.</span></li>
<li style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><strong>Mental and emotional changes: </strong>Mood swings, loss of confidence, panic attacks, heightened stress and anxiety at work and home, brain fog, and sleep disturbances.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="line-height: 138%;"><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><em><strong>Important note:</strong></em> There are no hormone tests that can reliably diagnose perimenopause, as levels fluctuate widely day to day. Avoid expensive blood, urine, and saliva tests - they're of little help and unproven. Instead, a detailed medical history is usually all that's needed, with additional tests indicated on an individual basis.</span></div>
