As the body prepares for the end of menstruation the hormonal balance shifts. These changes can start ten years before your last period, and can affect a lot more than the monthly cycle. Keeping a log during this time can help you better understand what is happening, predict your changing cycles and symptoms, and communicate with health-care providers if you need to do so. For example, if you have been feeling very tired you can show in detail when, for how long, and what else has been going on. Use the information you record to help you answer the question "How can I best take care of myself?"

Guide to Tracking Perimenopause for Beginners by Barry C. Glenn Pdf

Perimenopause means "around menopause" and refers to the time during which your body makes the natural transition to menopause, marking the end of the reproductive years. Perimenopause is also called the menopausal transition. Women start perimenopause at different ages. You may notice signs of progression toward menopause, such as menstrual irregularity, sometime in your 40s. But some women notice changes as early as their mid-30s. The level of estrogen -- the main female hormone -- in your body rises and falls unevenly during perimenopause. Your menstrual cycles may lengthen or shorten, and you may begin having menstrual cycles in which your ovaries don't release an egg (ovulate). You may also experience menopause-like symptoms, such as hot flashes, sleep problems and vaginal dryness. Treatments are available to help ease these symptoms. Once you've gone through 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period, you've officially reached menopause, and the perimenopause period is over.
