Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, and it often begins for women in their late 30s or 40s. During this time, hormone levels — particularly estrogen and progesterone — begin to fluctuate.
These changes can affect many systems in the body, including metabolism, sleep, mood, and energy levels. Some women experience symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, disrupted sleep, and mood swings.
While these changes are a natural part of aging, many women are surprised by how much hormones influence their daily well-being.
Understanding what is happening in the body can help women take a more proactive approach to their health through lifestyle support, nutrition, fitness, and medical guidance when appropriate.
Supporting hormone health during this stage of life can help women maintain energy, strength, and overall well-being as they age.
