October is Menopause month. But let’s be honest, perimenopause and menopause needs to be talked about every month!

Everyone’s menopause experience is different and it’s important to speak with your practitioner about the best way to manage your symptoms.

While night sweats, hot flushes, headaches, mood swings, urinary issues and brain fog can be common symptoms; what one woman experiences may be quite different to others in her age group.

Be sure to get the right advice. Book in for a perimenopause or menopause assessment with your doctor to find out more.
