Gut symptoms that improve, then flare again, are incredibly common in perimenopause — even when you’re trying hard to eat well and look after yourself.
In this episode, registered gut health dietitian Christel Lyell explains why gut symptoms so often keep coming back in perimenopause, and why this is not a sign that you’re failing or doing something wrong.
We explore how hormonal changes, stress and repeated over-correction can make the gut more reactive in midlife, and why trying harder can sometimes make symptoms worse rather than better.
This episode is about understanding patterns, reducing pressure, and making sense of why your gut feels so unpredictable during perimenopause.
