Your answers do *not yet* indicate perimenopause.
It’s good to know where you stand. Even so, your body sends you signals every day—after a meal, a short night’s sleep, or during stressful weeks. With Hello Inside, you’ll learn to read them before anything changes.
Discover Hello InsideYour answers align with the *onset of perimenopause*.
It often starts subtly: You sleep more restlessly, your mood fluctuates, and you no longer have enough energy. There’s a reason for this. When estrogen levels drop, your blood sugar becomes more reactive to what you eat. With Hello Inside, you can see how this affects you.

What our data shows: Women aged 45 and over
The metabolism changes somewhat starting in perimenopause. This can make it harder to influence weight. In our data, nevertheless, more women aged 45 and over achieved a weight loss of 3% than younger women.
Hot flashes also subsided more frequently in our data than would be expected by chance (n = 363). No clear difference was observed for night sweats.
“It’s so exciting. No more guessing—just hard facts. And it’s completely tailored to me.”
“I’m really excited, and even the first 14 days were soooo insightful.”

Frequently Asked Questions about Menopause and Hello Inside
How can I tell if I’m going through menopause?
It often starts with more irregular cycles, poorer sleep, hot flashes, or mood swings. This phase is called perimenopause and usually begins in your forties. Your gynecologist can give you a definitive answer. The MenoCheck provides you with an initial assessment.
Why am I gaining weight during menopause even though I eat the same as I used to?
As estrogen levels drop, your body becomes less sensitive to insulin. The same meal then causes your blood sugar to rise more sharply, and your body is more likely to store fat around your belly. This is due to your biology, not a lack of discipline.
What helps with cravings during menopause?
Cravings often occur after a drop in blood sugar. Many women notice a difference when they add protein and fiber to their meal or go for a short walk after eating. The sensor will show you which meal causes the drop.
