One of the country's leading menopause experts has revealed the most commonly overlooked symptom of menopause, which can sometimes be mistaken for early-onset dementia.

But fewer people are aware of "brain fog", a catch-all term for confusion, forgetfulness, and other symptoms affecting one's thinking abilities.
