Mood & Menopause
Perimenopause, the transitional period leading up to menopause, is a time of significant change for women. While physical symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats are well-known, the emotional fluctuations many women experience can be equally disruptive. Mood swings, irritability, anxiety, and even depression can become unwelcome companions during this phase. Understanding the hormonal basis of these changes and exploring strategies to manage them can empower women to navigate this emotional upheaval.
