Was told today... in perimenopause

Was told today I am in perimenopause by my gyn. Honestly, I am really freaked out as I am in my late 30s. Any advice? Wisdom? Information? My doctor is good but I mentally shut down after she said it.

Hormones all over the place

I've just come back from Tesco. I burst into tears in the middle of the shop. Not the first time it happened, crying in the middle of a crowded place.

Whats everyone wearing for deodorant?

I've always used secret sport and have always felt that it worked. Lately Ive been noticing its not lasting as long. I dont know if its a combination of hormones and just it being 100+ degrees where we live but I feel like I'm reapplying 4+ times a day. 23.5 weeks along
