What is perimenopause?<\/strong><\/h2>

Perimenopause is the transitional period before menopause<\/strong> , when a woman's hormonal system begins to change. The ovaries gradually produce less estrogen and progesterone, and these fluctuations cause the first symptoms. It usually begins after age 40<\/strong> , but for some women, as early as 35. This period can last 3\u20137 years<\/strong> . <\/p>

Every woman experiences them differently, but the most common are:<\/strong><\/p>

  • hot flashes and sweating, especially at night,<\/li>
  • sleep disorders,<\/li>
  • irregular menstruation,<\/li>
  • mood swings, irritability,<\/li>
  • decreased energy, fatigue,<\/li>
  • difficulty concentrating,<\/li>
  • changes in libido,<\/li>
  • skin and hair changes.<\/li><\/ul>

    These are the symptoms that usually signal that a transition period is approaching.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    How to prepare for perimenopause?<\/strong><\/h2>

    From the age of 35, it is worth starting to take special care of yourself so that your body is stronger and more prepared for the changes that perimenopause will bring. During this time, it is important to introduce regular physical activity - it strengthens bones and muscles, reduces the effects of stress and helps keep your metabolism active. A balanced diet, rich in calcium, vitamin D, protein and fiber, ensures bone health and balance of the hormonal system. Sleep and stress control are also very important, because chronic stress and insufficient rest can aggravate the symptoms of perimenopause. Regular doctor's check-ups and an open conversation about health allow you to notice changes in time and implement preventive steps. By taking care of yourself in this way in a timely manner, a woman can expect changes with greater strength, ease and confidence. <\/p>
