Menopause and Perimenopause Management

Menopause is a natural phase in every woman’s life, yet the journey leading up to it, known as perimenopause—can bring a range of physical and emotional changes. These transitions are normal, but they can be overwhelming without the right support. At Ankura, we offer comprehensive care to help women navigate this stage with comfort, confidence, and balance.
Understanding Perimenopause & Menopause
Perimenopause is the period when hormones begin to fluctuate, often starting in the 40s, and sometimes earlier. Symptoms may be irregular periods, mood changes, hot flashes, sleep issues, or weight fluctuations.

Menopause marks the end of menstrual cycles (after 12 months without a period), often accompanied by ongoing symptoms like vaginal dryness, fatigue, and metabolic changes.
