Greetings All from Michigan USA. Happy to find this forum, none like it over here it seems. Regarding Menopause Brain - wow, it is a Real Thing.
I started perimenopause at 45 and began experiencing cognitive difficulties like those described by others here. I could not hold onto a thought, forgot names of close family and friends, was confused by simple procedures at work, put away ice cream in the oven instead of the freezer on grocery day... I feared I was experiencing early-onset dementia. The herbalist at my local health foods co-op suggested a supplement called Citicoline CDP Choline. The brand is Jarrow - not sure if this is their proprietary formula. After a few weeks of daily use suddenly my brain was my own again. I still take it because I'm afraid of going back to that scary place. My sister uses it as well with the same excellent effect. It is too expensive at the local shop so I buy it online. If you feel you are losing your mind give this a try - can't hurt, and may help.
