Did you know that the #1 most common symptom of perimenopause and menopause is feeling tired and exhausted? If you're experiencing this, you're not alone. Over 70% of us are dealing with constant fatigue and low energy levels.

So how do I know this?

As a Menopause Researcher, I love data. More than 3,700 of you have filled out our signs and symptoms survey and shared how you’re feeling. My goal is to get to 5K responses, so if you haven’t filled it out yet, you can do so here: https://linktr.ee/wearemorphus

So, what can we do?

The first thing I recommend is asking your doctor or health care provider for the following tests as things can shift and change as we go into this phase of life:

-Thyroid (TSH, Free T3, Free T4, TPO, TG)
-Ferritin
-Vitamin D
-B12

Another thing is to make sure you’re well hydrated. Exercise and move daily. And eat as many nutrient dense foods as possible. All of these can have an impact on your energy levels.

But most importantly be patient with yourself and give yourself the time and permission to take it easy. Your body is changing, recalibrating, so rest, relax and recharge when you feel you need to.
