In this episode of Master Stress, Dr. S explores the pre-perimenopause phase, a decade before perimenopause that often starts in the mid to late 30s. Despite regular menstrual cycles and normal blood tests, women may start experiencing subtle hormonal shifts that affect their mood, sleep, and overall well-being. Dr. S explains the importance of not dismissing these symptoms as mere stress and discusses how to support optimal hormonal health through tracking cycles, supporting progesterone, and regulating the nervous system. Practical steps for navigating this silent transition are provided, emphasizing empowerment and preparing for the decades to come.
