Perimenopause, Hormones & the Brain

Perimeopause is much more than a hormonal transition. It is a period of profound communication between the ovaries, brain and nervous system, and these changes can influence how women sleep, think, feel and respond to stress.

In this webinar, we will explore what happens to estrogen and progesterone during perimenopause, how these hormones interact with neurotransmitters and brain networks, and why symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, brain fog and reduced stress tolerance may emerge or intensity during midlife.
The goal is to help women understand their changing physiology, regognise when symptoms deserve clinical assessment, and make informed decisions about lifestyle and treatment options.
