Understanding Perimenopause

What is Perimenopause?

Perimenopause is the transitional phase before menopause. It can last several years and is marked by hormonal fluctuations. These changes can lead to various symptoms, including hot flashes, mood swings, and changes in menstrual cycles. Understanding this phase is crucial for managing your health effectively.

Common Symptoms

During perimenopause, you might experience:

• Irregular periods

• Hot flashes

• Night sweats

• Mood changes

• Sleep disturbances

  
  

Recognising these symptoms can help you navigate this transition with greater ease. Remember, you’re not alone in this journey.

The Importance of Community

You’re not alone in this shift. Perimenopause can feel like a quiet storm—especially when your body, identity, and hormones are rewriting the rules. But here, you’re seen. You’re understood. And you’re supported.

Our gender-affirming service is built for trans men and AFAB folks navigating perimenopause with courage, humour, and truth. Whether you’re tracking symptoms, seeking community, or just trying to make sense of it all—we’ve got resources, stories, and support that speak your language.
