Menopause is a natural phase of life — but that doesn’t mean it’s always an easy one. Hormonal changes can bring uncomfortable symptoms that affect energy, mood, sleep, and overall well-being. For many women, the transition feels unpredictable and overwhelming.

With Dr. Carla DiGirolamo, women in Boston MA receive expert, compassionate guidance from a board-certified menopause specialist who understands both the science and the personal experience of hormonal change. Through virtual consultations, Dr. DiGirolamo helps women navigate every stage of menopause with clarity, confidence, and lasting balance.

Her approach combines advanced endocrinology with lifestyle and performance medicine — empowering women to feel healthy, strong, and vibrant through midlife and beyond.

Understanding Menopause

Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years, but it’s much more than a date on the calendar. It’s a complex biological transition that affects the entire body.

This phase begins with perimenopause, the years leading up to menopause when estrogen and progesterone levels begin to fluctuate. The official transition occurs once a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period.

While every woman experiences menopause differently, common symptoms include:

• Hot flashes and night sweats
• Sleep disturbances and fatigue
• Mood swings or irritability
• Weight changes and slower metabolism
• Brain fog and trouble concentrating
• Vaginal dryness or discomfort
• Irregular or heavy periods during perimenopause
• Reduced libido
• Hair thinning or dry skin

These changes can be frustrating, but they’re also manageable — especially with the guidance of a qualified menopause specialist.

Why Women in Boston MA Choose a Menopause Specialist

Boston women lead busy, ambitious lives — balancing work, family, and wellness goals. When hormonal changes start interfering with those priorities, expert care becomes essential.

Unfortunately, many women don’t receive the support they need during menopause. Symptoms are often dismissed as “normal aging,” leaving women to struggle without answers.

Her virtual consultations make it easy for women to access specialized care without needing to travel — a modern, private, and effective way to take control of hormonal health.
