This activity was planned by, and for, the interprofessional healthcare team.

This enduring activity focuses on helping licensed healthcare clinicians recognize perimenopause earlier and apply a practical, history-based approach to diagnosis and clinical management. Learners will examine the distinction between perimenopause and menopause, recognize symptoms across vasomotor, sexual, cognitive and mood, sleep, genitourinary, menstrual, and metabolic domains, and address common misconceptions about the menopause transition. The activity is delivered through a self-paced online video presentation with clinically focused instruction and an embedded knowledge assessment. Content addresses history-based diagnosis, fertility and contraceptive considerations, the benefit-risk profile of hormone therapy, including the timing hypothesis and emerging evidence, non-hormonal options, and application of evidence-based guidance to clinical case scenarios. Participants should complete the educational presentation and knowledge assessment and consider how the information can be applied in their clinical practice. Successful completion of the knowledge assessment and activity evaluation is required to complete the activity and receive the certificate.

Perimenopause remains under-recognized and is frequently attributed to stress, aging, or other conditions despite the frequency and range of symptoms experienced during the menopause transition. Clinicians need a reliable clinical framework for recognizing perimenopause, particularly when menstrual cycles remain regular, but other symptoms are present. A key practice gap is the inconsistent recognition and diagnosis of perimenopause based on clinical history. Clinicians may incorrectly believe that hormone testing is required to confirm the diagnosis, which can delay appropriate symptom management as well as counseling related to fertility and contraception.

This activity is suitable for Physicians, Nurses, Pharmacists, Physician Assistants, Dietitians, Dentists, Athletic Trainers, and other healthcare professionals involved in perimenopause management.

The activity is particularly relevant to clinicians who recognize, assess, counsel, or manage women experiencing symptoms associated with the perimenopause transition and who need a practical, history-based framework for clinical recognition and management.
