Episode description as stored

If perimenopause feels endless and confusing, you are not imagining it. One of the biggest misconceptions is that menopause itself lasts for years, when in reality the long, messy part happens before and after it. In the latest Hello Hormones, we get into early versus late perimenopause, why symptoms shift as hormones change, how periods actually factor into diagnosis, and what labs like FSH can tell you when bleeding is not a reliable clue. If you are having symptoms but your cycles still seem regular, or you are skipping periods and wondering how close you really are, this episode will help it click. Tune in for clarity and a lot fewer question marks. Head to drcarriejones.com/stages to grab What Stage of Perimenopause Am I In? Because the confusion is honestly worse than the symptoms sometimes.
