I think my mother is in peri menopause. She is suffering from all those symptoms: hot flashes, nightmares, night sweating, dizziness and depression. My curiosity is hers complains about new symptom she called brain fog. Do such things really exist? How can I help her? How long wills this thing lasts, until she is in peri or more?
Too many questions for one daughter. Joke. Brain fog is usually described as a state of confusion or lack of clarity. Because of it person can become forgetful detached and often discouraged and depressed. Best way to help your mother is to understand her and support her through peri. These symptoms should pass with peri, too. If doesnt then you must take her to her doctor.
