Hot flashes aren’t the only sign of perimenopause.
Perimenopause can begin earlier than many women expect, and symptoms can look different from woman to woman. You may notice changes in your body and how you feel before hot flashes ever become part of the picture.
Some common symptoms can include:
• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
• Anxiety or mood changes
• Changes in sleep
• Irregular or changing menstrual cycles
• Heavier or lighter periods
• Night sweats or hot flashes
• Changes in energy or libido
These changes can be frustrating, especially when you’re not sure what’s causing them. But you don’t have to simply “push through” or assume they’re just a normal part of getting older.
At New Horizons Women’s Care, our providers are here to help you understand what’s happening, answer your questions, and discuss personalized options for managing your symptoms and supporting your health through perimenopause and beyond.
