Menopause is a natural milestone, but for many women, it brings physical and emotional changes that can feel anything but natural. From sleep struggles and hot flashes to mood swings and fatigue, hormonal shifts can affect every aspect of your life.

With Dr. Carla DiGirolamo, women in Tampa FL receive expert care from a board-certified endocrinologist and menopause specialist who understands both the science and the experience of menopause. Through virtual consultations, Dr. DiGirolamo helps women manage symptoms, restore balance, and feel empowered through this important stage of life.

Her care combines clinical endocrinology, performance medicine, and compassionate guidance — helping women in Tampa rediscover confidence, energy, and long-term wellness.

Understanding Menopause

Menopause isn’t an event — it’s a process. It begins with perimenopause, when estrogen and progesterone levels start to fluctuate, leading to irregular cycles and symptoms that may appear years before menstruation fully stops.

Menopause is officially reached once a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a period, followed by postmenopause, when hormone levels stabilize at lower levels.

Common menopause symptoms include:

• Hot flashes and night sweats
• Sleep disturbances or insomnia
• Mood swings or anxiety
• Fatigue and low motivation
• Weight gain or metabolism changes
• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
• Irregular or heavy periods during perimenopause
• Vaginal dryness or discomfort
• Thinning hair or dry skin
• Decreased libido

While these changes are common, they are not something you have to simply “put up with.” With expert medical guidance, you can feel better, stronger, and more in control.

Why Women in Tampa FL Choose a Menopause Specialist

Tampa’s active lifestyle and sunny climate inspire many women to focus on wellness — but even with healthy habits, menopause can disrupt your energy and focus. The hormonal fluctuations during this stage affect not only your physical comfort but also your mood, performance, and overall sense of balance.

Unfortunately, many women don’t receive the individualized support they need. Generalized care often overlooks the complex interactions between hormones, metabolism, and lifestyle.

That’s where Dr. Carla DiGirolamo makes a difference. As a menopause specialist, she provides virtual consultations for women in Tampa FL, offering comprehensive, science-backed strategies to relieve symptoms and promote long-term hormonal health.
