The fix-it-fast perimenopause must list

I know - there is way too much to do already and a mountain of information to sift through. I’m here doing the research you don’t have time for, because the peri/menopause transition can be one of the most confusing times in your life. So here’s a list of totally doable, evidence and experience-based steps you can take right now to start feeling better before you know it.

I’m a journalist with 30 years of experience covering health – and I’m going through this fascinating and frustrating time too. This is very much a developing story and a lucrative one too. By 2025, 1.1 billion women will be going through menopause. The kicker is many women don't even know they're going through it, let alone how to manage the waves it entails. It's been my mission to help women understand this phase of life and embrace it with confidence.

Hi, I'm Ann Marie

Don't do this alone

I’ll never stop reminding you this is a normal transition, that shame and stigma have no place here, and that not only is this going somewhere good – we are actually entering the most powerful time of our lives.

That is why I founded Hotflash inc, a community of savvy, smart, hopeful, curious, creative and contemplative people, to provide balanced, unbiased coverage of all the latest news, research, public policy, tech, economics, business, podcasts, products, experts and more.

Doing the research you don’t have time for

The peri/menopause transition can last for years and depending on your overall health, genetics, stress, and other factors, it can range from nothing to a living hell. There is joy in knowing that life is better than ever on the other side of menopause. The key is knowing what to expect, what you're going through and how you can have some sort of control.
