Brief Answer:
Perimenopausal changes
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I read your query and I understand your concerns.
You are right. You are going through perimenopausal changes.
This phase associated with irregular menses varying in duration.
Unfortunately there is associated weakening of pelvic floor muscles in some women which give rise to weak bladder.
Therefore I suggest you get uroflometry test done to check the level of urinary bladder dysfunction so that type of treatment can be decided.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
