Seeking Healthcare During Perimenopause

Finding a health care provider who understands the latest research on perimenopause – and can help you manage your symptoms – can be challenging. This resource provides tips and includes a “perimenopause snapshot” tool, which helps you track and summarize your specific symptoms. Sharing the snapshot with your healthcare provider can help you get what you want from your appointment.

“Women need to advocate for themselves when what they’re being told and what they’re experiencing don’t match … If you suspect that your doctor doesn’t know enough about perimenopause, find one who does.”
