Are you experiencing changes in your mood, sleep, energy, periods, or overall well-being and wondering if perimenopause could be the cause? Join Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner Lillian Medhus for an informative and approachable introduction to perimenopause.

In this session, you’ll learn:

* What perimenopause is and when it typically begins

* Common symptoms beyond hot flashes

* How hormones affect mood, sleep, weight, and brain function

* Evidence-based treatment options, including lifestyle strategies and hormone therapy

* How to advocate for yourself and find the support you need

Whether you’re currently experiencing symptoms, approaching midlife, or simply want to be informed, this presentation will provide practical knowledge and answer common questions about this important stage of women’s health.
