What are the symptoms of perimenopause?

Are you navigating through the changes of perimenopause? During this natural transition in your life, your body is starting to shift towards menopause. As you age, your ovaries gradually produce fewer hormones, resulting in various physical and emotional changes.

How is menopause diagnosed?

For many women, signs like hot flushes, irregular periods, mood swings, or brain fog start to appear in their 40s, but menopause doesn’t follow a strict timeline. Some experience symptoms earlier, others later, and not everyone has the same signs. So how do you know when it’s actually menopause? Is it something a blood test can confirm? Or can your GP tell just from your symptoms?

Are you experiencing hormone imbalance symptoms?

You’re tired, hungry, irritable… all part of the daily grind, right? Well maybe not - this could be a sign of a bigger problem. Namely, an imbalance in your hormones.
