Wait… phantom smells are a perimenopause symptom?!

In this episode, Sarah, The Perimenopause Naturopath is breaking down the weirdest perimenopause symptoms and explains:

• Why these odd symptoms happen (hint: it has to do with receptors on every single cell of your body).

• What you can do to help your body adapt so these symptoms don’t take over your life.
