As a doctor, I’ve had countless conversations with patients about the changes their bodies go through. One topic that often doesn’t get the attention it deserves is perimenopause. Yep, that stage in life where things start shifting and fluctuating, and your body decides it’s time to pave the way for the next chapter.

It’s a gem for anyone—whether you’re nearing your 40s or curious about what’s to come. I’ll share why taking a peek at this piece might just be the reassuring read you didn’t know you needed.
