If you're juggling multiple perimenopause symptoms, your future health could be at risk. A new study found that women who experience a greater number of symptoms had poorer cognitive function (such as memory, learning, and decision making) and changes in behavior (including anything from losing interest in friends and family to eating less or being agitated or irritable), which may increase the future risk of dementia.
But there’s good news: Treatment can help. The study researchers found that women taking hormone therapy had less severe behavioral changes. So whether you’re managing one or 10 perimenopause symptoms, taking action today can make your hormonal transition easier and set you up for a stronger, sharper future. Because it’s never too early to take charge of your health.

“I lost 41 pounds with Midi and feel great!”
- Audra K., 49 |
|
The moment I turned 40, it felt like I was suddenly hit with perimenopause symptoms—anxiety, mood swings, insomnia, night sweats, hot flashes, and weight gain. I never knew which version of myself was going to show up.
My OB/GYN recommended exploring holistic options, so I gave them a try. Acupuncture and yoga helped for a while, but nothing truly brought me back to myself—until I found Midi.
From the moment I started working with my clinician, I felt genuinely cared for. The Care Plan she prescribed—combining HRT, supplements, and dietary changes—has made such a difference. In the past year, I've lost 41 pounds, sleep soundly most nights, and my anxiety is now manageable.
Perimenopause is a phase we all go through, but it does not have to be miserable. We all deserve to enjoy life, and with the right support, we can!

The expert: Emy Charlot, NP, Midi clinician
Q: “I’m confused! Do I need estrogen, estrogen plus progesterone, or testosterone?”
A: This classic which-hormone-cocktail-is-right-for-me question came through Reddit (we love all the Midi discussions happening on Reddit!). Let’s break it down:
-
Estrogen: Midi may prescribe this if you’re having symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and mood swings.
-
Progesterone: If you still have a uterus and we’ve prescribed estrogen, we’ll add progesterone to protect your uterine lining from potential cancer. Plus, progesterone can improve sleep—something many of us struggle with during perimenopause and menopause.
-
Testosterone: Experiencing low libido? Testosterone might be the answer—but it’s not for everyone. A Midi clinician will help you assess the potential benefits and risks of testosterone therapy.
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer for hormone therapy. Your symptoms, health, and medical history all come into play when determining what to prescribe. Book a visit with a Midi clinician to learn what’s best for you.
