My hair has always been straight. Recently, the hair on one side of my head became curly. I have periodic hot flashes and no fever. Hormone blood panel/thyroid tests are normal. My periods are regular and normal. Could this still be perimenopause?

Thyroids & hormones show normal in blood work but still show all the symptoms of perimenopause. Still possible? Night sweats, insomnia, changes in period, fatigue/tired all time, mood swings, weight gain, no sex drive, hot flashes, tummy issues, etc.
