What is Brain Fog? The Complete 2025 Guide + Free Tracker
Brain fog is the most common cognitive symptom during perimenopause and menopause — affecting 60–70% of women. It feels like mental sluggishness, forgetting words or names, losing your train of thought, difficulty concentrating, and a general “cloudy” or “cotton wool” feeling in your head.
It is not dementia. It is almost always temporary and responds incredibly well to tracking + simple lifestyle changes.
