and it has been largely ignored.

My new book, The New Perimenopause, is about the seven to 10 years before your periods stop, a transition that is anything but gentle.

Hormones fluctuate wildly, and for many women, this is when the anxiety, brain fog, sleep disruption, weight changes, mood shifts, joint pain, and that unsettling feeling of, I don't feel like myself anymore, begin, long before anyone says the word menopause.

Perimenopause often starts quietly.

It shows up in the brain first, then the body, then everywhere else.

And too often, women are told nothing is wrong.

I wrote The New Perimenopause because you deserve answers before things spiral.

You deserve care before burnout.

And you deserve a clear roadmap for a transition that medicine has ignored for far too long.

The New Perimenopause is now available for pre-order everywhere books are sold.

Many of you know I've spent my career pushing for better medical standards for women.

Middie Health is on that same mission, delivering the kind of care women have always deserved.

For too long, women have been told to just deal with perimenopause and menopause symptoms.

Your labs are normal.

This is just a part of aging.

Eat less, work out more.

That approach failed us, and it's exactly why both my work and Middie's exist.

Midlife and menopause aren't the beginning of the end.

They're a critical window of opportunity.
