‘Ignoring hot flushes is wrong’: study challenges assumptions about perimenopause symptoms
The study published in the Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology has challenged the common assumptions about perimenopause symptoms. The research found that nearly 40% of women going through perimenopause experience moderate to severe hot flushes and night sweats, which are as severe as those experienced during menopause. However, the study highlights the lack of interventions available for perimenopausal women despite the significant impact of these symptoms on their daily lives. The findings suggest that the medical community should not ignore the severity of perimenopause symptoms and should focus on developing more effective treatments and support for women during this transitional phase of their lives.
