Peri-menopausal Period Syndrome refers to the symptoms that occur during peri-menopause, which is the period before and after menopause. Symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and vaginal dryness. These are caused by a decline in ovarian production of estrogens and other sex hormones during peri-menopause. Diagnosis involves assessing menstrual history, symptoms, and lab tests of estrogen and follicle-stimulating hormone levels. Treatment options include hormone replacement therapy using estrogens, with cyclical progestogen added to reduce cancer risks.
