Dear Menopause

91: Thriving Through Perimenopause: 3 Essential Tips


Listen Later

In this episode, I share 3 essential tips for those days when perimenopause is really kicking your butt, that you can get started with today.

The focus is on journaling to keep track of symptoms, how to find a supportive healthcare professional, and small mindful lifestyle changes.

These steps are vital for taking back control of your health and choices at a time when you may feel completely out of control.

Key Points Discussed:
1. Journaling for Symptom Tracking: I highlight the importance of journaling and tracking symptoms to become an expert on your body. Tracking symptoms and concerns is a significant benefit to facilitating effective conversations with your healthcare professional.

2. Finding A Supportive Healthcare Provider: I emphasise seeking referrals from friends and family for experienced women's health professionals and sharing resources like the Australasian Menopause Society website for finding the right support.

3. Lifestyle Adjustments: I share personal experiences and insights into lifestyle changes that can significantly impact perimenopause symptoms, like modifying alcohol consumption to manage hot flashes better.
