Why Women Deserve Better Care in Perimenopause
Perimenopause isn’t a chapter—it’s a reckoning. And most women go through it unsupported, unheard, and underdiagnosed.

Perimenopause isn’t a chapter—it’s a reckoning. And most women go through it unsupported, unheard, and underdiagnosed.
This transition can last 8–10 years, yet it’s barely covered in medical training.
Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and even thyroid hormones fluctuate wildly, impacting sleep, metabolism, mood, memory, libido, and more.
And still, most doctors don’t test. They don’t track. They don’t listen.
“I told my doctor I was having heart palpitations, night sweats, and panic attacks. He said it was ‘probably stress’ and sent me home with a breathing app.” – Suma, 42
“I kept asking if my hormones could be causing this anxiety and fatigue. I was told it’s just ‘part of being a woman.’ I felt dismissed and invisible.” – Alina, 46
Up to 80% of women experience significant hormonal symptoms in midlife, yet fewer than 5% get accurate support or diagnosis.
This isn’t a niche problem. It’s a healthcare blindspot affecting millions.
Women deserve real-time insights into their changing biology—not another vague reassurance or a one-size-fits-all antidepressant.
Perimenopause is not just a phase— It’s a critical window for preventive care and metabolic wellbeing.
We don’t need to “tough it out.”
We need healthcare that finally sees us.
