What to do when your doctor dismisses your perimenopause symptoms

Why arent doctors diagnosing 47-year-old women like clockwork? Take this with you.

You are not the problem. The training gap is. Most doctors get a few hours of menopause education. What works: bring a written 2-week symptom log (Luma builds it for you), say "I would like that documented," and ask the three questions in your Doctor Kit. If they still wave it off, that is a reason to find a menopause-certified provider, not a reason to doubt yourself.
