MAKE SENSE OF WHAT’S HAPPENING TO YOU.
Your body feels different. Your sleep is unreliable. Your patience is shorter. Your relationship may feel different too.
And life still expects you to carry on as though none of it is happening.
You may be asking questions you never expected to ask yourself.
Why am I awake again at 3 a.m.?
Why am I so irritated by people I love?
Why does my body suddenly feel unfamiliar?
Why can I not concentrate the way I used to?
Why am I questioning my relationship?
Is this perimenopause, or should I be concerned about something else?
You do not need another pile of information. You need help with the life you are actually living.
YOU CAN BE HIGHLY CAPABLE AND STILL FEEL COMPLETELY UNPREPARED FOR THIS.
You may still be running a business, leading a team, raising children, caring for parents, managing a home, or holding a relationship together.
Then your sleep changes. Your cycle changes. Your body changes. Your energy changes. Sex can change. Your tolerance for stress can change.
One difficult night can affect tomorrow’s meeting. One body change can stay in your head all day. One argument can make you question far more.
A PERIMENOPAUSE AND MENOPAUSE COMPANION BUILT AROUND YOUR PERSONAL SITUATION.
Sophora begins with what you are going through.
You can describe the difficult night, the breast change, the anger, the missed period, the low desire, the fear, or the conversation you dread.
You do not have to know the correct medical term. You do not have to work out the perfect question first.
Start with what happened to you.
MENOPAUSE SHOULD NOT BECOME ANOTHER JOB.
There is no shortage of information.
You can search. Read. Watch. Compare. Save. Ask. Then you still have to decide what applies to you.
What could explain this change?
Could several changes be connected?
What should I pay attention to?
What should I try first?
What should I ask my doctor?
You should not have to become an expert in menopause just to begin understanding your own personal situation.
Sophora is designed to reduce the searching, repeating, remembering and sorting that usually falls back on you.
THE SAME SYMPTOM CAN LAND VERY DIFFERENTLY IN TWO DIFFERENT LIVES.
A woman leading a company may worry about concentration before a board meeting.
A woman parenting young children may be more concerned about exhaustion and irritability at home.
A woman in a long relationship may suddenly be questioning desire, attraction, distance, or what she wants next.
Sophora gets better at helping you specifically with your situation the more you use it.
What you choose to share can inform later conversations, so you do not have to begin from the beginning every time.
The help can become more specific to your circumstances, rather than women in general.
WHEN WHAT IS HAPPENING TO YOU REACHES THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
Perimenopause does not stay neatly inside your body.
Poor sleep can reach your work. Irritation can reach your children. Low desire can reach your relationship. Body changes can reach your confidence.
Then a thought appears:
Those thoughts can feel enormous when they arrive.
Before you decide what a thought means, it helps to understand what has changed around it.

Eight Connected Rooms. One Continuing Experience.
Your sleep, body, relationship, private thoughts and healthcare questions are happening to the same person.
Less repeating. Less reconstructing. Less trying to remember which answer came from where.
WHEN YOU NEED TO TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR
Your appointment time is limited. You’ll be better positioned to know precisely what to say and ask your doctor from an informed perspective.
When did this begin?
How often is it happening?
What changed first?
What else have you noticed?
What have you already tried?
What are you most concerned about?
Sophora can help you organise what you have noticed and prepare the questions you want answered.
Sophora does not diagnose you and does not replace your doctor or healthcare professional.
It helps you arrive better prepared for the conversation you want to have.
THERE ARE QUESTIONS YOU MAY WANT TO ASK BEFORE YOU ARE READY TO SAY THEM TO ANYONE ELSE.
No Judgement.
No one else is here. Just you and Sophora.
At 3 p.m. At 3 a.m. After an argument. Before your appointment. After noticing a body change that worries you.
You can begin with the question exactly as it comes to you.
I HAVE SOPHORA FOR THIS.
A difficult night.
A body change that worries you.
A relationship thought that frightens you.
A private question you are not ready to ask anyone else.
A doctor appointment you want to prepare for.
You are not buying one answer. You have Sophora to return to as new questions and changes appear.
