Does this sound like you?
Symptoms that deserve to be taken seriously
Perimenopause and menopause affect everyone differently. If any of these feel familiar, you’re not imagining it — and you don’t have to work it out alone.
Hot flushes & night sweats
Sudden waves of heat, flushing or sweating — during the day or at night — that can disturb sleep and leave you feeling drained.
Sleep problems & fatigue
Trouble falling or staying asleep, waking in the early hours, and a tiredness that rest doesn’t seem to fix.
Mood changes, anxiety or low mood
Feeling more irritable, tearful, anxious or flat than usual — often without an obvious reason, and not like your usual self.
Brain fog & poor concentration
Losing your train of thought, forgetting words or names, and finding it harder to focus on things you used to do easily.
Irregular or changing periods
Cycles becoming shorter, longer, heavier or less predictable — often one of the earliest signs of perimenopause.
Joint aches, low libido & vaginal dryness
Aching joints and muscles, changes in desire, or dryness and discomfort — common symptoms that people often find hardest to raise.
Our approach
Menopause care that starts with listening
An unhurried, prescriber-led consultation at Coldean Pharmacy in Brighton — a full review of your symptoms and history, and a personalised plan you’ve actually helped shape.
What to expect
