Simple wellness strategies to manage perimenopause at the workplace
Live MintMenopause marks an important milestone in women's lives. The symptoms may vary from one individual to another, but generally speaking, perimenopause tends to affect the quality of life of women, including their performance at work. Instead, understanding the phase and its symptoms can help devise strategies to manage perimenopause better at the workplace. As uncomfortable as it sounds, having a candid discussion with your manager may lead to them offering solutions – such as flexible work hours or hybrid work – and help to manage this unpredictable phase. Consider medical support: If symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, disordered sleep patterns and mood changes are severe and are affecting your quality of life, consider going in for Menopausal Hormonal Therapy, but only if other non-hormonal treatments have proven ineffective.
