Q. What is perimenopause? A. Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, when your ovaries gradually produce less estrogen and hormone levels become less predictable month to month. It's not a single event, but a process that can unfold over several years as your body shifts away from regular ovulation and menstruation. Menopause itself is only officially reached after 12 consecutive months without a period; everything leading up to that point is perimenopause. Read the full Q&A.
