Perimenopause: Breaking the Silence on the Transition No One Talks About
Perimenopause is a stage that impacts millions of women, yet it remains one of the least discussed and most misunderstood transitions in women’s health. In this episode of the No Expiration Date podcast, Ann-Marie and Cindy pull back the curtain on what really happens during the years leading up to menopause.
From hormone spikes and night sweats to brain fog, joint pain, and the emotional toll of shifting estrogen and progesterone levels, this conversation is both eye-opening and relatable. You’ll hear startling statistics—like how nearly 70% of women feel unprepared for perimenopause, while only 30% ever seek medical advice—and personal stories that shine a light on how these changes show up in daily life.
We’ll talk openly about:
The wide range of symptoms beyond hot flashes and mood swings.
The impact on mental health, sleep, and relationships.
Why perimenopause is often overlooked in healthcare and how misdiagnoses happen.
Practical ways to cope, from lifestyle changes to treatment options.
This isn’t just about surviving perimenopause, it’s about thriving through it. By sharing knowledge and experiences, we can break the stigma and remind women everywhere: you’re not alone.
👉 Tune in, share this episode with the women in your life, and let’s keep the conversation going. Because there truly is no expiration date on living boldly and beautifully.
