What is perimenopause?

Perimenopause is the time before your periods stop. Often years before your periods stop, oestrogen can start to fluctuate. For many, it’s when symptoms hit the hardest. Our survey of over 6000 showed it is common to experience more than 10 symptoms during perimenopause.

You may still have periods, even regular ones, but also:

You feel low, anxious or just not like yourself
Simple, hassle free care, at your fingertips.
