Am I in perimenopause?!

Im 41 and I think I maybe a bit perimenopausal, sleep starting to be a bit disrupted, noticed I’m gaining weight around my stomach which is hard to shift, bit more tired than I used to be, snappy and less patience and a bit more emotional 🙈. Help!! Is there anything I can do to help ease things? I’m still on the contraceptive pill so hard to know about periods.

Start using the free Balance app to track your symptoms over time, as well as lifestyle stuff like sleep, nutrition, exercise etc. Will help you to build up a picture of your symptoms over time. Lots of info about perimenopause on the app too

Magnesium glycinate at bedtime really helps with sleep
