In this video, Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) features Corinne Menn, MD, OB/GYN, menopause specialist, and breast cancer survivor, discussing the mental health effects of menopause and perimenopause.
Menopause and perimenopause can bring significant hormonal, neurological, cognitive, and emotional changes that are often misunderstood or misdiagnosed. Dr. Menn explores how symptoms such as anxiety, depression, mood changes, sleep disruption, brain fog, and stress can emerge or worsen during the menopausal transition and explains why accurate recognition and evidence-based care are essential.
This educational discussion is designed for individuals navigating menopause or perimenopause, caregivers, and anyone interested in understanding the connection between hormonal health and mental wellness.
