Summary
This article discusses perimenopause, the transitional phase before menopause that can begin as early as a woman's 30s or 40s. It highlights how symptoms like fatigue, mood changes, sleep problems, abdominal fat gain, and irregular cycles are often misattributed to stress or overwork, when they may actually be hormonal signs of perimenopause. The article aims to raise awareness about this underrecognized stage and help women better understand and manage the transition.
