Today we delve into an important topic that many of us may not yet have on our radar. Did you know that up to 8% of women have their final period by age 45? I’ll break down the terminology surrounding menopause, including premature, early menopause, perimenopause, and menopause itself. We explore the symptoms that might catch you by surprise if you're under 44 and experiencing fatigue, insomnia, night sweats, weight gain, and more. We also discuss the challenges of diagnosing menopause in younger women, the nuances of conditions like premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), and the various factors that can influence whether you'll experience menopause earlier than expected. For those navigating POI or early menopause and hoping to start a family, we touch on options such as hormone therapies and alternative pathways to parenthood, such as IVF and surrogacy. We also highlight the importance of mental and emotional health during this transition and offer practical advice for self-care and seeking support. Discover how menopause can be both a challenging journey and an empowering new chapter in your life. Let's rewrite the narrative on menopause!
