Should I see my GP about manageable perimenopause symptoms?

Do I need to see doctor about perimenopause? My symptoms are totally manageable, had got flushes and sleeping difficult. Periods are irratic. I don't think I need too but worried I should be on HRT or something

I didn’t take it because I had zero symptoms. I’m not taking anything that’s not needed. As for preventing heart disease, that’s laughable. I take regular blood tests and no sign of heart disease or osteoporosis. I’m not lining the pockets of big pharma

It's not laughable, it's proven science.

And blood tests won't show osteoporosis, or many of the cardiovascular risk factors and early changes.
