Don’t dismiss menopause symptoms just because of your age. A recent survey found that while 61% of women expect to enter menopause in their 40s, many start experiencing symptoms in their 30s.
Understanding what’s happening in your body is the first step to feeling better. Midi’s symptom checklist can help you track what you’re experiencing and identify patterns that may point to perimenopause. Take note of when symptoms occur (time of day, where in your cycle, if they occur before or after you eat/drink, etc), plus their frequency and severity. Share your results with your Midi clinician during your virtual visit to help her personalize your care and support. |

“I wasn’t ready for post-hysterectomy menopause”
- DeShannon C., 52 |
|
“When I had a partial hysterectomy, my physician was great at preparing me for the actual surgery and post-procedure pain management—but I wasn’t ready to be thrown into menopause.
Within a couple days of surgery, I began to have brain fog. My energy level plummeted too—and the mood swings! Everything felt exaggerated. I wasn’t myself.
My Midi clinician was able to connect the dots and guide me to treatment. The brain fog’s gone and I’m no longer on an emotional roller coaster. In just a short period of time, Midi changed my life.”

Q: “How much fiber should I aim for during menopause?
A: Fiber has been shown to help decrease visceral fat (the kind that hangs out around your belly), and reduce your risk for heart disease and stroke. A high-fiber diet can also help women lose a few pounds, since it helps you feel full longer and blunts blood sugar highs and lows.
Most women only get about 12 grams of fiber a day, but at least 25 grams or more is associated with the best health outcomes. Here are seven ways to move toward that daily goal:

If you’re finding it hard to meet your daily 25 grams, book a Midi visit to talk with a clinician about whether a fiber supplement could be right for you.
