Navigating Menopause: Symptoms, Treatments, and Everything in Between

Premenopause symptoms, also known as perimenopause, can be frustrating to navigate as it is a retrospective diagnosis. Symptoms include hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, irregular periods, and more. Hormone replacement therapy is the most effective treatment for perimenopausal symptoms, but lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and getting plenty of sleep can also make a big difference. It's important to talk to your healthcare provider about treatment options if you think you're experiencing signs of perimenopause.
