This word is used a lot for peri-menopause and it really drives me crazy.
Why?
Because there is nothing to "diagnose." We diagnose diseases and illnesses which perimenopause is none of these things.
It's a natural part of life that has been given a bad name and using words like "diagnose" probelmatizes it.
What are your thoughts about the word DIAGNOSE when it comes to perimenopause? What other words have you heard used that make it feel like a problem or something bad?
