Questions to bring to your appointment
The exact things to ask, so you’re never dismissed or rushed out the door again.
The symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, one at a time.
Estrogen does not only run your cycle. It has receptors in your brain, your bones, your joints, your skin, your bladder and your blood vessels. When it starts swinging and then falling, any of those systems can register it. That is why the list below looks unrelated, and why treating one symptom at a time so often fails.
Waking at 3am, wide awake, with your heart going.
Tired in a way that sleep does not touch.
Night sweats that soak the sheets and wake you cold.
Legs that will not settle the moment you lie down.
Anxiety that arrives from nowhere, often in the early morning.
Rage out of all proportion to whatever set it off.
Words going missing in the middle of your own sentence.
Dizziness or a swimmy, off-balance feeling.
Weight settling at your middle when nothing about your habits changed.
Joints stiff and sore before you are out of bed.
A shoulder that quietly stops moving.
Hair thinning at the temples and along the part.
A heart that pounds or skips for no reason you can name.
Periods that crowd together, then stretch apart.
Dryness and discomfort that turn sex into something you avoid.
Needing the bathroom more, and infections that keep coming back.
Skin that itches or feels like something is crawling on it.
Small electric shock sensations just under the skin.
A buzzing or vibrating feeling inside your body.
That is 23 of them. The full list runs to 74, and the guide draws the lines between all of them.
Too many women are handed a prescription and a shrug, or nothing at all, and sent home to figure it out alone at midnight on the internet.
This is the guide I wish every woman had before she walked into an appointment. It’s the plain-language version of what I’d tell you if we were sitting across from each other: what’s actually happening, what genuinely helps, and the questions that get you taken seriously.
