Today’s episode might be a sensitive topic for some, but it’s becoming a pet-peeve of mine and I think it needs to be discussed: is perimenopause the cause of all of your weight gain struggles? I see this everywhere, brands and influencer targeting women in their 40’s and claiming they have the one answer to all your perimenopausal weight-related issues, but there’s one main problem: there is absolutely no truth to the idea that perimenopause causes weight gain at all! You might actually be experiencing perimenopause and if that’s the case there are ways to alleviate symptoms. However, if you’re seeing some weight gain as you reach your 40’s and beyond, there’s more that can be done than just blaming your changing hormones and giving up.
