Perimenopause

What is perimenopause?

Perimenopause refers to the time leading up to menopause, when a woman's body is making the natural transition toward permanent infertility. The hallmark of perimenopause is hormonal fluctuations, which causes symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and mood changes for some women.

Perimenopause typically begins for women in their late 30s through late 40s as the ovaries start to make less estrogen. However, it can start as early as the 30s for some women. This menopausal transition phase lasts an average of four years, but can range anywhere from a few months to over 10 years, until the final menstrual period marks the official onset of menopause.
