1 | How Do I Know If I’m In Perimenopause?

Hey girl!

In this first episode of the podcast, I will be answering a question I’m asked all of the time from clients:

Perimenopause: What is it and how do I even know I am in it?

I chose this question because I believe we can’t begin to heal and take back control of our hormones until we truly understand the shift that is happening in our midlife bodies.

In this episode, I’m going to get SUPER vulnerable and share with you my personal hormonal roller coaster story, as well as walk you through three tell-tale signs that you’re (probably) in perimenopause.

In this episode you will learn:

- What age does perimenopause start?

- How long will perimenopause last?

- Perimenopausal spotting and perimenopausal periods: What to expect

- Perimenopause and birth control: How synthetic hormones affect your body’s natural transition

- And what are the most common perimenopausal symptoms?*

*Stay tuned for a future episode where I take a deep dive into all the perimenopausal symptoms–including some outliers!

I hope this episode informs you, inspires you, or makes you laugh (or maybe just feel less like an alien.)

This episode’s “Thump on the Head”:

“No one says, ‘ED [Erectile Dysfunction] is just a normal part of growing older and men have to learn to live with it.’ We say, ‘This a typical thing and there’s treatment.”

So how is perimenopause any different?
