Feeling confused about perimenopause symptoms and frustrated by unreliable hormone tests? You're not alone. Join us on the Uncomplicated Perimenopause Podcast as we share Debbie journey through anxiety, itchy skin, and fatigue, despite her blood tests showing normal results. Learn why hormone levels fluctuate during perimenopause, rendering tests unreliable on any given day, and discover how NICE guidelines empower women over 45 to be diagnosed based on symptoms alone, without the need for blood tests. We provide reassurance that these concerns are valid, manageable, and part of a common experience many women face.
Why does perimenopause remain a lesser-known topic despite its inevitability? This episode dives into the emotional and physical challenges women encounter and the critical need for awareness and understanding. We introduce the perimenopause symptom tracker as an essential tool for self-advocacy in healthcare settings. Additionally, we stress the importance of supportive conversations with loved ones and address impactful symptoms such as insomnia and loss of libido. Join us as we bring perimenopause into the spotlight, ensuring women are better informed and supported throughout this significant phase of life.
