Perimenopause Stage Estimator

A free symptom-profile estimator based on the STRAW+10 staging criteria. Answer 10 quick questions — we'll suggest which stage your symptom pattern aligns with, then route you to providers experienced at that stage. Not a diagnosis.

How much do these symptoms affect you? (0 = none, 3 = severe)

What this tool does (and doesn't do)

The Stages of Reproductive Aging Workshop (STRAW+10) defines stages of perimenopause using menstrual-cycle change, age, and hormonal symptom severity. Our estimator approximates that framework with a short symptom intake. It does not replace blood work (FSH, estradiol), clinical evaluation, or a pelvic exam. Treat the result as a starting point for a conversation with a clinician — not a label.

If you're still bleeding regularly but several symptoms are severe, an early-peri or late-peri band may show up in our output — that does not mean you have a clinical diagnosis. Hormonal patterns can fluctuate month to month; one snapshot isn't enough for medical conclusions.
