This is your Women's Health Podcast podcast.

Welcome to the Women’s Health Podcast. Today, we’re diving straight into a topic that’s often whispered about but rarely discussed openly—perimenopause. For millions of women, it’s more than just a medical term; it’s a personal journey and, let’s face it, sometimes a rollercoaster. But knowledge and community are powerful, so let’s get right to it and shed some light on perimenopause.

Perimenopause is the transition leading up to menopause, and it usually starts in a woman’s 40s though some experience it earlier. It’s marked by fluctuating hormone levels and, yes, those infamous symptoms: irregular periods, hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. Some women find themselves riding an emotional wave they never signed up for, while others may notice physical changes like night sweats and vaginal dryness. All of this is normal—and, more importantly, manageable.

To help us navigate this phase, I’ve invited Dr. Maria Thompson, a board-certified gynecologist known for her empowering approach to women’s hormonal health. Dr. Thompson, it’s great to have you here.

Let’s jump in. First, can you explain in simple terms what’s happening in our bodies during perimenopause? What are the most common first signs that women should notice? Are there any lesser-known symptoms that women should look out for? Many women hear conflicting information about hormone therapy—what are the current recommendations for using hormone therapy or MHT, and who is a good candidate? For women who can’t or don’t want to use hormones, what non-hormonal treatments and lifestyle changes can make a real difference? How effective are plant-based therapies or supplements, and what should women know before trying them? With all these changes, the emotional impact is real. Do you have advice on how women can protect their mental well-being during perimenopause? Finally, what’s one empowering message you wish every woman experiencing perimenopause could hear?

Dr. Thompson’s insights highlight that while perimenopause can be challenging, there is a toolkit of strategies and treatments available. Hormone therapy, or MHT, can be incredibly effective for symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness, but it’s not for everyone—women with a history of certain cancers or heart disease may want to consider alternatives. Non-hormonal treatments including antidepressants, cognitive behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes like exercise and balanced nutrition can also offer significant relief. Plant-based therapies are rising in popularity, but since they’re not regulated by the FDA, always consult with your healthcare provider before trying anything new.

Here’s the big takeaway: Perimenopause isn’t something to fear—it’s a powerful chapter in our lives. By talking openly, learning about our bodies, and supporting one another, we can embrace this transition with confidence. This is your health, your story, and your time.

Thank you for joining the Women’s Health Podcast. Stay empowered, stay informed, and remember—you’re not alone on this journey.
