Is it Perimenopause? Clinical clues and confidence in early recognition
Speaker
Session Date:
Perimenopause is often under-recognised, especially when women present with mood changes, fatigue, or vague symptoms in their early 40s.
This interactive session challenges outdated assumptions and explores how early, thoughtful identification of perimenopause can improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce unnecessary investigations.
We’ll examine the available evidence, highlight common clinical patterns, and consider how the Hormone Hikoi framework can guide responsive, low-harm, evidence-informed care.
Grounded in real-world experience and patient narratives, this session empowers GPs to support midlife women in a way that is timely, safe, and system-sensible.
