In this episode of Women Mastering Midlife, Victoria Byrd sits down with menopause educator, therapist, and author Lauren Tetenbaum to talk about a conversation many millennial women are not prepared for: perimenopause in your 30s and early 40s.Lauren, author of Millennial Menopause, shares why so many women are being dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told they are “too young” for hormonal symptoms, and why that narrative must change.Together, Victoria and Lauren explore:Why perimenopause can begin in your mid-to-late 30sThe mental health impact of hormonal fluctuations, including anxiety, irritability, and the “3 a.m. doom drops”Why mood symptoms often appear before cycle changesThe cultural reluctance millennials have around embracing “midlife”How menopause affects women in the workplace and contributes to lost income and stalled careersThe myths surrounding hormone therapy and breast cancer riskAlcohol and breast cancer risk versus estrogen riskThe testosterone double standard in women’s healthcarePellet therapy, med spas, and how to make informed treatment decisionsFertility grief and identity shifts during the menopause transitionWhy education for providers, pharmacists, and mental health professionals must improveLauren explains that perimenopause is often more complex than menopause itself, especially when it comes to mood disorders and misdiagnosis. Many women are prescribed antidepressants or sleeping pills without discussion of hormonal drivers. While SSRIs can be helpful tools, they should not be the only option offered.Lauren shares practical first steps for women who suspect they are in perimenopause:Track symptomsPractice self-compassionSeek a provider who understands menopause guidelinesConsider individualized care rather than relying solely on social media adviceIf you are a millennial woman feeling “off,” experiencing unexplained anxiety, irritability, sleep disruption, or simply not recognizing yourself anymore, this conversation offers validation, clarity, and direction.You are not too young.
