Vivid dreams and perimenopause.
Dreams that feel unusually sharp, detailed, or unsettling, sometimes intense enough to leave you tired the next day. More often a downstream effect of broken-up sleep than a direct hormonal one.

How Primrose & Eve tracks vivid dreams
Primrose & Eve lets you log vivid dreams in two taps, with a five-point severity scale and optional trigger tags — stress, caffeine, alcohol, poor sleep, exercise, heat, food. After three weeks of logging, the app's pattern engine identifies what is making your symptoms better or worse, using the same statistical tests epidemiologists use. Those findings go into a clinical briefing your doctor can read and act on in the time you actually have with them.
