Part 3: Perimenopause 101: How and Why Your Cycle Starts to Change
About this episode
In this final episode of our 3-part series on menstrual health, we’re diving into the later menstruating years - aka perimenopause. If your once-predictable cycle has become irregular, heavier, shorter, or totally unpredictable, you’re not alone - and you’re not imagining things.
Licensed nutritionists Kara Carper and Leah Kleinschrodt unpack what’s actually happening with your hormones during perimenopause, why symptoms like sleep struggles, mood swings, and heavier periods can show up, and how nutrition can help you feel more balanced through the transition.
