This is your Women's Health Podcast podcast.

Welcome to the Women’s Health Podcast. I’m your host, and today we’re diving right into a conversation that affects millions of women, yet too often remains in the shadows: perimenopause. For many, it sneaks in quietly—irregular periods, mood swings, hot flashes, maybe sleep disruption. Suddenly, you’re wondering: Is it just stress, or is my body trying to tell me something more?

Perimenopause is the natural, transitional phase before menopause. It can start as early as your 30s or as late as your 40s, lasting several years. The hormonal ebbs and flows during this time can cause a range of symptoms—from subtle changes in your menstrual cycle to intense night sweats or emotional ups and downs. And let’s be real: it’s not just physical. Perimenopause can touch every corner of your wellbeing, including your relationships, your career, your confidence.

To get answers, I recently sat down with Dr. Emily Carter, a renowned menopause specialist at the Mayo Clinic. I asked her the questions that too many women feel afraid or embarrassed to bring up.

First, I wanted to know: what truly defines perimenopause, and how can women recognize its signs? Dr. Carter explained that while there’s no single test, healthcare providers look at age, menstrual history, and symptoms. Sometimes, blood tests for hormone levels or thyroid function may help, but diagnosis is often based on what you’re experiencing.

I then asked Dr. Carter about the most effective ways to manage tough symptoms. She emphasized that hormone therapy, like estrogen alone or with progestin, remains the gold standard for hot flashes and night sweats—though it’s not suitable for everyone, especially those with certain health risks. We talked about non-hormonal options too—antidepressants for mood swings, cognitive behavioral therapy for emotional balance, and lifestyle tweaks: regular exercise, a balanced diet rich in fruits and whole grains, and tracking things that trigger hot flashes, like caffeine or alcohol.

I also wanted the facts about herbal and plant-based therapies that are so often marketed to women. Dr. Carter was clear: while some women find benefit, these supplements aren’t regulated like prescription meds. Speak with your healthcare provider before starting anything new.

Finally, I asked what she wished every woman knew about perimenopause. Her answer was powerful: “You don’t have to suffer in silence. This is a time to advocate for your health and prioritize your wellness.”

So, let’s recap key takeaways. Perimenopause is a normal, natural phase, but it can disrupt your life. Know the signs, track your symptoms, and don’t hesitate to seek support. Treatment is available—tailored to your needs and medical history. And above all, you have a voice. Use it. Because women’s health is powerful health.

Thanks for joining me on the Women’s Health Podcast. Until next time, remember: your health journey is your own—and you deserve to thrive.
