Who is studied
Perimenopause is associated with fatigue, sleep disturbance, vasomotor symptoms, mood changes, and cognitive difficulties. While the literature addresses symptom management, limited research examines the functional impact of perimenopause on daily occupations, work participation, and role performance. Occupational therapy (OT) emphasizes participation in meaningful activities; however, there is minimal research exploring occupational disruption during midlife hormonal transition.
