Women in their 40s and 50s are at the most capable phase of their life. Strong, established, fit, worldly-wise - well before someone decides they’ve hit the ‘too old’ bracket. The same ageist views apply to blokes of course, but our health and wellbeing doesn’t suffer anywhere near as badly. Through these years a woman’s body betrays them! Fertility disappears in a puff of smoke, and the hormonal changes of menopause lead to a multitude of debilitating symptoms. It sucks and it’s not fair.

20 odd years ago, you just didn’t hear the term perimenopause. But now, there’s not a day that goes by in my surgery that I don’t hear patients discuss it or come in asking for help. The stage refers to the period of time where a woman transitions from regular cycles and their baseline hormonal state to the final menstrual period - ‘menopause’. And while it’s a phase that’s been going on for eons, it’s only really shot to prominence and awareness in more recent times.

Australians have a unique lingo for just about anything. We’ve got sangers and snags; cossies, and togs; even potato scallops and potato cakes. And whilst terms like cold and flu are pretty universal, Aussies are far more likely to feel bloody crook with their bug, lurgy, or wog. But it doesn’t really matter what we colloquially call them, "upper respiratory tract infections" ruin our week and we’re all desperate for the quick fix. And the most magical of all has to be the ‘antibiotic’ doesn’t it?
