Abstract Perimenopause or "menopause transition": Can begin eight to 10 years before menopause, when the ovaries gradually produce less estrogen. Females are not expected to discuss about this topic as it is considered taboo in society. The current study is based on the perception of husband’s (47-58 years) and wives (40-55 years) regarding perimenopausal stage, regarding perimenopause, signs and symptoms, challenges or difficulties, benefits, experiences and treatments. Aims of the study were: [1] To ascertain perception of Husband’s (47-58 years) and Wives (40-55 years) regarding: a) meaning b) physical symptoms c) discussion among couples. [2] To identify benefits of perimenopausal stage as observed by Husband’s (47-58 years) and Wives (40-55 years): a) finding sex more physically comfortable. b) feeling relief about not being pregnant and not taking contraceptives c) seeking medical treatment d) remedies for reducing the symptoms. [3] To develop or design a brochure/pamphlet for better understanding and knowledge regarding perimenopausal stage. Research design was exploratory and snowball sampling was implemented with a total sample of 200 participants (100 Husbands and 100 Wives) using a self-constructed tool (5 open and 15 closed ended items). Results revealed, (61%) discuss the changes faced during perimenopausal stage with their spouse while (39%) do not discuss. (42%) Neither agree nor disagree while (3%) Strongly agree finding sex more physically comfortable after perimenopause.
