Understanding Perimenopause and Post-Menopause

Menopause is a natural life stage, but that doesn’t mean it’s always easy to navigate.

Officially, menopause is confirmed when you haven’t had a period for 12 months. This usually happens around age 51, but it can occur earlier due to surgery, medical treatment, or premature ovarian insufficiency.

The years leading up to menopause – known as perimenopause– can start as early as your late 30s or early 40s. This is when hormone levels begin to fluctuate, and it's often when the most noticeable symptoms begin.

Many women experience changes they don’t initially connect to menopause. You might feel “off,” more anxious, tired, or forgetful, without realising it’s hormonal. Some women breeze through with minimal symptoms – others experience several at once.

Testimonial

"When I first found Roberta I was in a pretty low place, having been forced into an early menopause by surgery I was really struggling with brain fog, anxiety, depression, lack of self esteem along with a host of physical symptoms as well - all of which was affecting my work and holding me back from pushing my own business forwards. I had tried working with various different professionals, but nobody seemed to either understand or be able to help me at all. Until I met Roberta, I now feel much more ‘in control’ and my self esteem has increased so much that I am making changes in my life so that I can make my own wellbeing a priority (I was always at the bottom of the list)!
