How do you work with somebody coming to you at that level?

Yeah.

And, you know, I kind of think about that, you know, and it kind of is into this one area.

You know, I think a lot of couples don't realize that perimenopause can start changing the relationship before either other person even understands what perimenopause is, right? And just like you said, there are certain cycles, you know, that we have in our life.

And if we are having a regular cycle, yeah, maybe it's a little more predictable.

And your marriage adapted to that, especially if you've been married for quite some time.

You understand patterns, right? Everybody identifies with that.

So,

So how do you find the transition has been for you in your marriage?

Yeah, it really kind of like I kind of started out and saying it really shocked us, essentially, because I think, unfortunately, a lot of women just are not educated and aware and prepared for this stage of life.

You know, we're hearing a lot more about it now and a lot more people are speaking about it.

And we have education going out there.

We're finally making some some leeway.

What I think is out there for people to get aware.

But it still sneaks up on the best of us.

Oh, my God, what's happening?
