Every woman's experience is individual: some have no perimenopause symptoms and their periods end without warning while others have years of changes in their body before their periods stop.

The perimenopause is the time leading up to menopause, when your hormones start to change. The menopause itself starts when your periods stop. During these times, hormone levels fluctuate and it's common to experience symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, low moods, anxiety and brain fog. At other times, though, you will probably feel well again. Sleep is also an issue for many of our patients, with disturbed rest affecting their lives and making daily life difficult. Our symptom checker can be a really useful way of tracking what is happening with your hormonal symptoms.

The fluctuation in oestrogen levels during the perimenopause and the drop in oestrogen after the menopause cause most of these distressing symptoms. Myla can give you back oestrogen in multiple different ways, usually along with progestogen to protect the womb lining.

With careful monitoring and treatment Myla can help you take control of your symptoms and feel balanced again.
