In this episode of Hello Hormones, I walk you through everything you need to know about stage one of perimenopause—what it actually is, how it’s defined, and the real-life symptoms I see every day in women (and have experienced myself). We talk about what your lab work might show, why your cycles are starting to shift, and how to spot early hormone changes before things get more intense.
