Blanked on the word for “wrists” and called them “hand ankles?” Been there. Word-finding lapses and forgetfulness are common during perimenopause and menopause, thanks in part to fluctuating estrogen levels that affect memory and attention. Stress, poor sleep, and mood changes can make brain fog even worse.
But don’t stress too much about your MIA vocabulary: Menopause-related brain fog is not the same as dementia. While dementia causes progressive cognitive decline, menopause brain fog is typically temporary and often improves with treatment. Hormone therapy, supplements, better sleep, exercise, and stress management can all help—and a Midi Clinician can get you set up with the solution that’s best for you.

“You’re not ‘crazy’—and there is help!”
- Jennifer B., Midi Patient
|
When I turned 50, my body started feeling foreign to me. Murder scene periods, brain fog, weight gain, hot flashes and so much more.
I went to a couple of doctors who told me what I was going through was “normal” and “to be expected.” No, thank you—I was depressed and not myself. But I couldn’t find anyone who knew about HRT.
I tried to manage my symptoms myself: worked out, changed my sleep schedule—but I got little to no relief. I’m so glad I found a sympathetic and smart place to land with Midi.
My clinician knew what she was talking about. Now, I feel stronger and better than ever. My attitude has done a 180! And I want other women to know there is help for you, too.
