Frequent Infections (such as UTIs)

Decoding Perimenopausal

What does it feel like?

Burning, frequent urination, or pelvic discomfort due to recurring urinary tract infections.

Reduced estrogen levels thin the vaginal and urinary tract linings, making them more susceptible to infections.

How can you manage or sooth this symptom?

Stay hydrated, practice good hygiene, and consider probiotics or cranberry supplements. Topical estrogen may also reduce susceptibility to UTIs.
