OBJECTIVES: Psychological health changes are known to occur during perimenopause, but the extent to which these differ from premenopause remains unclear. This study aimed to assess psychological symptoms during perimenopause compared with premenopause and evaluate differences by country.
METHODS: Flo app users aged 35 years or above not taking hormonal contraception or hormone therapy were included. The psychological domain of the Menopause Rating Scale (range 0-16) and symptoms within this domain of depressive mood, irritability, anxiety, and exhaustion (range 0-4 each) were evaluated. Participants in perimenopause were compared with those in premenopause (self-reported not in perimenopause or postmenopause).
RESULTS: A total of 7,975 women were included, with 2,353 in perimenopause (mean age 45 years [SD±4.5]) and 5,622 in premenopause (39 y [SD±4.0]). Psychological Menopause Rating Scale scores in the perimenopause group were significantly higher (7.3 [SD±3.56]) than in the premenopause group (4.8 [SD±3.56]; P<0.001). The individual symptoms of depressive mood, irritability, anxiety, and exhaustion were also higher in the perimenopause group (P<0.001, for all respectively), with the largest difference being exhaustion. These findings remained after adjusting for known confounders, including an existing diagnosis of anxiety or depression. Geographic analysis included 20 countries across 6 continents, with significant differences identified between countries for the overall psychological symptom domain score and all individual symptoms.
CONCLUSION: Significantly greater psychological symptom burden was identified in the perimenopause group compared with the premenopause group, with the greatest difference noted for the individual symptom of exhaustion. Differences in symptom burden were also identified by country.
