Perimenopause is a transitional phase toward menopause characterized by hormonal changes, physical and psychological complaints, and an increased risk of cardiometabolic disorders in women aged 40–55 years; however, it still receives limited attention in health education and screening programs. This community service activity aimed to implement a community-based integrative model for perimenopausal health education and screening among Aisyiyah women using a participatory preventive approach. The Community-Based Participatory Approach (CBPA) was applied to 52 perimenopausal women who were members and sympathizers of Aisyiyah in the city of Bandar Lampung through interactive education sessions, basic health screening, and individual counseling. The results showed that the most common complaints were easy fatigue (75.0%), sleep disturbances (65.4%), and hot flushes (51.9%), along with a high prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors, particularly prehypertension (65.4%), overweight and obesity (61.5%), and borderline-to-high cholesterol levels (57.7%). This aisyiyah-based community integrative model proved effective as a promotive and preventive strategy for increasing awareness and early detection of health risks among perimenopausal women.
