Brain fog so intense you can’t finish a sentence. Anxiety that appears from nowhere. Work suddenly feeling impossible.
For many women, these are the early signs of perimenopause — and they can begin in your 30s. Yet too often, they’re misdiagnosed as depression, burnout, or “just stress.”
In this eye-opening episode of The Health Review, Dr. Reem Alshaikh — GP and women’s health expert — explains why menopause is so misunderstood, the surprising symptoms no one warns you about, and how misdiagnosis can leave women struggling for years without the right support.
We discuss:
Why women have estrogen receptors all over their bodies — and what happens when levels drop
The most overlooked symptoms, from brain fog to worsening ADHD
Why menopause is often mistaken for depression or anxiety disorders
How the age your mother reached menopause can predict your own
The different types of HRT — and how to find the right fit
Why partners, employers, and friends need to understand this too
Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or already experiencing symptoms — or you want to better support someone you love — this truly is an episode for everyone.
