Quick answer

Menopause brain fog, such as forgetting words or losing concentration, is a recognised symptom of perimenopause and menopause, and for most women it is mild and improves after the transition. CogMission’s six-week group programme covers nutrition, gut health, stress, sleep, exercise and hormones, in live 90-minute Thursday workshops, for £395.

Why it matters

One of the most common symptoms, with few practical answers

Problems with memory and concentration are a recognised symptom of perimenopause and menopause, and can feel worse when sleep is poor.1 One in four women say they have considered quitting their job because of menopause symptoms.2

The good news is that for most women these changes are mild and often improve after the menopause transition.4 In the meantime, there is a lot you can do.

Our programme is different: practical tools, expert guidance and support to make the changes stick.

    You’re making more mistakes, and quietly wondering whether you can keep doing your job.

  3. 03

    You don’t feel like yourself

    Less sharp, less confident, and increasingly alone with it.
