  • "Can lifestyle changes like diet and exercise help?"

  • "Should I consider Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?"

  • "Are there non-hormonal treatments I can explore?"
     

Questions About My Long-Term Health:

  • "How might perimenopause affect my bone health or heart health?"

  • "Should I take any preventive measures during this transition?"
     

Questions About My Emotional and Mental Health:

  • "Could my mood changes or sleep issues be related to perimenopause?"

  • "What support is available for managing these challenges?"
     

Questions About Follow-Up:
