Alcohol Addiction

No way I would have known I was perimenopausal if I hadn’t quit drinking

ABSTINENCE FURTHERS –

JULY 26, 2024 -As well as impacting us differently, sobriety coach Christy Osborne explains that if we’re drinking, our perimenopause symptoms can be harder to notice If you’ve found that your hangovers are noticeably worse since entering perimenopause, and that you feel drunk much quicker, you’ll be pleased to know you’re not imagining it. Our alcohol tolerance dips in perimenopause thanks to hormonal shifts… 

If you’re perimenopausal, you’ll be familiar with hot flushes, but Christy explains that alcohol can cause these too. “Alcohol consumption can trigger or intensify hot flashes and night sweats,” she says. If you’ve ever woken up feeling sweaty after a big night out, you’ll be able to relate! “Alcohol affects the body’s ability to regulate temperature, which can lead to increased occurrences of these uncomfortable symptoms,” Christy adds.
