The truth about alcohol in midlife

The Real Impact of Alcohol on Hormones, Mood and Identity

Alcohol doesn’t just affect your liver. It touches every part of your life. For women in perimenopause, alcohol hits differently. Your hormones are already fluctuating. Your nervous system is more sensitive. Your stress threshold is lower.

Even one or two drinks can disrupt your sleep, spike anxiety the next morning and heighten irritability or low moods.

But most of all? It numbs. It disconnects you from your inner voice. From your joy. From the woman you're becoming.
