#34 – Is This Perimenopause? Definition, Symptoms and How to Navigate It in the Netherlands – with Dr. Deyo Famuboni

Katia Khomich

I’m joined by Dr. Deyo Famuboni, a medical doctor with a special focus on menopause and midlife women’s health. Dr. Deyo works at the intersection of evidence-based medicine and whole-person care, supporting women through perimenopause and menopause helping women thrive in midlife. 

In her clinical practice, she helps women understand what is happening in their bodies, make sense of their symptoms, and navigate medical options with clarity rather than fear.

This conversation is Part 1 of a two-part series on menopause. In this first episode, we focus on building a medical foundation and answering some of the most common — and often misunderstood — questions women have as they enter their 40s and beyond.

In our conversation Dr. Deyo mentions Greene Climacteric Scale (often also called the Green Climacteric Questionnaire).

It’s a validated, internationally used questionnaire designed to assess menopause and perimenopause symptoms and their impact on daily life.
