Many people are surprised to hear that perimenopause can last a decade or more, starting as early as age 37 or 38, often before the menstrual cycle starts to show change. The hormonal changes can cause poor sleep, irritability, joint aches, hot flashes, low libido, and an increasing dependence on wine (the Chinese medicine view on this is interesting and helpful) starting as early as age 37 or 38, often before the menstrual cycle starts to show change.
Dr Carrie Murphy defines this time of life as a healthy, normal transition, like puberty in reverse, that will leave you very different than you started. But you have some control in how it goes. Join us for an hourlong open, informative, curious, broad-ranging discussion, followed by a Q&A session. Saturday, October 13th, 10 am at Wild Workouts and Wellness Boot Camp – 2121 S. Kinnickinnic Ave.
We’ll supply the drinks and food, you can bring your questions (and a friend)!
