Six signs and symptoms that predict perimenopause
0 Replies
antonella - December 18

Perimenopause usually starts in a woman's 40s, but it can also start in her 30s or even earlier. Here is a list of some symptoms women can experience in perimenopause.

Hot flashes and night sweats
Hot flashes are the most commonly known symptoms of perimenopause. During perimenopause, you can have a sudden feeling of intense heat which encompasses your entire body and may be followed by day or night sweats.

Reduced sex drive
In perimenopause, the sex hormones decrease. This is a common reason for vaginal dryness, making sex painful or just not as enjoyable as before.

Irregular menstruation
Your periods have been appearing like clockwork for the past 20 or 30 years, they last for the same number of days and they follow a certain pattern of flow.

Mood fluctuations
Some women experience mood swings, irritability or increased risk of depression during perimenopause. The cause of these symptoms may be sleep disruption caused by hot flashes.

Vaginal and bladder problems
When estrogen levels diminish, your vaginal tissues may lose lubrication and elasticity, making intercourse painful. Low estrogen levels may also leave you more vulnerable to urinary or vaginal infections.

Skin Changes
When your estrogen levels drop, your skin loses its elasticity and becomes thinner as your collagen decreases.

And if you still have any worries or problems about menopause, you could consult online doctors, such as Wuhan Dr. Lee’s TCM Clinic, to get professional online help.
