Treatments and Symptoms
Fatigue
An exhaustion that cannot be resolved with a good night’s sleep
Your levels of estrogen and progesterone are changing throughout menopause. This can have a destabilizing effect on stress hormones like cortisol, so you feel like you are in constant “flight” mode, which is hard on the body. Feeling tired also goes hand-in-hand with trouble sleeping, another common perimenopausal symptom. The sleep deficit can add up over time.
