Perimenopause Symptoms
Your Body Is Changing. You Don't Have to Just Push Through It.
Physician-supervised hormone care to help you feel steady, clear, and like yourself again.
Perimenopause can bring changes that are easy to dismiss as stress or aging, until they start affecting your sleep, mood, energy, and day-to-day comfort. At Radiance RX Skin & Aesthetics in Apex and Pittsboro, NC, we take these symptoms seriously. Through comprehensive lab testing and physician-supervised hormone optimization, we help you understand what’s happening in your body and build a plan to feel more like yourself throughout this transition.
What Causes Perimenopause Symptoms?
Perimenopause is the transitional period leading up to menopause, marked by fluctuating, not just declining, estrogen and progesterone levels. This hormonal shift can show up as:
- Hot flashes and night sweats that disrupt sleep and daily comfort
- Irregular periods, as ovulation becomes less predictable
- Mood changes, anxiety, or irritability tied to shifting hormone levels
- Fatigue and poor sleep quality, even with adequate rest
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
- Weight gain and metabolic changes, especially around the midsection
- Reduced libido and vaginal discomfort
Perimenopause typically begins in a woman’s 40s, but timing and symptom severity vary widely from person to person, which is why an individualized evaluation matters.
How We Treat Perimenopause Symptoms at Radiance RX Skin & Aesthetics
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to perimenopause. At Radiance RX in Apex, our providers start with an in-depth consultation and comprehensive lab testing to understand exactly where your hormone levels stand, then build a plan around your specific symptoms and goals.
Hormone Replacement Therapy
Our physician-supervised Hormone Replacement Therapy uses bioidentical hormone pellet therapy to help restore balance to estrogen and progesterone during perimenopause. Pellets deliver a steady, physiologic dose of hormones over 3–6 months, closely mimicking your body’s natural rhythms and helping smooth out the fluctuations that drive many perimenopausal symptoms.
Many women notice meaningful improvements in sleep, mood, and energy within weeks of starting therapy.
