Perimenopause & Menopause: Let’s Talk About It (Because Your Sexy Day Isn’t Cancelled)

Hot flashes, mood swings, vaginal dryness… oh my. Let’s break down what’s happening to your body and how to keep feeling confident, sexy, and in control.

Perimenopause vs. Menopause — What’s the Difference?

Perimenopause is the transition phase leading up to menopause. It can start as early as your mid-30s or 40s and last several years.

Menopause is officially diagnosed after you’ve gone 12 months without a menstrual cycle.

Both stages come with hormonal shifts — mainly declining estrogen — affecting mood, libido, and vaginal health.

Common Symptoms

  • Hot flashes & night sweats
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Lower libido
  • Mood swings
  • Fatigue
  • Brain fog
  • Painful intimacy

Declining estrogen can thin vaginal tissue and reduce natural lubrication, causing discomfort during intimacy.
