What is perimenopause?
Perimenopause marks the beginning of the menopause transition when the hormone levels in your body start to fluctuate. These fluctuations can trigger a range of symptoms including sleep disruption, mood swings, hot flashes, and night sweats. Perimenopause often starts in the mid-to-late forties (but can begin earlier), and lasts between 1-7 years depending on the person.
