In this video, Dr. Frankie Bashan talks openly about perimenopause — a life transition many people experience but few fully understand. She breaks down what perimenopause actually is, the physical and emotional changes it can bring, and how it can affect your sex_ life, libido_, and relationship with your body.
From fluctuating hormones and irregular periods to brain fog, mood swings, vaginal dryness, and shifts in desire, perimenopause can look different for everyone. Dr. Frankie explains why these changes happen and shares practical, compassionate advice on how to navigate intimacy and pleasure during this stage of life.
In this video you’ll learn:
➡️ Common perimenopause symptoms
➡️ Body changes you might notice
➡️ Why libido_ can shift
➡️ How to communicate with partners
➡️ Treatment options, including hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
➡️ Simple ways to manage symptoms like dryness, fatigue, and mood swings
If you’ve been feeling unlike yourself lately, you’re not alone. This stage can feel confusing and frustrating, but with the right information and support, it’s manageable. Whether you’re approaching perimenopause, currently in it, or supporting someone who is, Dr. Frankie offers clear guidance on what’s normal, what’s treatable, and how to maintain a satisfying sex_ life through the transition.
