@_rootedinher: Nobody told me perimenopause could come with: 😩 frozen shoulder 🥺 dry skin AND a dry coochie 😭😂 Like excuse me?? Why is EVERYTHING drying out and hurting all at once?? 😩 Let’s really talk about it though 🤍 As hormones start shifting during perimenopause (especially estrogen)… It can affect WAY more than just your period. ✨ Frozen shoulder / body aches Many women notice increased stiffness, inflammation, and random joint pain during this phase ✨ Dry skin Skin may suddenly feel: 👉 itchy 👉 dull 👉 extra dry because hormones help support moisture and elasticity ✨ Vaginal dryness (“dry coochie” 😂) And yes… we need to normalize talking about THIS too. Hormonal changes can affect: 👉 natural lubrication 👉 comfort 👉 intimacy And so many women suffer silently because they’re embarrassed to say it out loud. But let me remind you… You’re not “broken” Your body is transitioning 🌿 And this is why support matters: ✨ hydration ✨ hormone support ✨ healthy fats ✨ herbs ✨ rest ✨ listening to your body Perimenopause really said: “We changing EVERYTHING” 😭 But at least now we can finally talk about it honestly 🤍✨ #Perimenopause #WomenOver35 #HormoneHealth #FrozenShoulder #DrySkin
