Every woman has a unique experience as they transition through menopause. I have worked for many years as a doctor with a special interest in menopause management and know that every woman who is bothered by symptoms requires a careful assessment of their issues and overall health. I have noticed a trend on social media towards suggesting every woman needs certain hormones. And that they shouldn’t take certain other hormones. But this approach doesn’t take into account that some women want contraceptive options, some women don’t respond or have side effects, some women have heavy or irregular bleeding and some women can’t or don’t want to take hormones. If you need help, please ensure you seek a health professional with experience in managing menopause who understands the nuances of treatment options. The AMS has a website with a list of doctors who have an interest in this area so this is a good place to start.

With so much information and misinformation in the world, it is hard to know where to start when perimenopause kicks in. I am a medical doctor with over 20 years experience, and a special interest in managing women in the menopause transition. I hear similar questions and have similar conversations every day with women wanting to understand what is happening to their bodies as well as wanting to know what they can do about it. I have created an online, self paced educational course to assist women in navigating the menopause transition. This is an affordable and accessible course that aims to cut through the noise and more info can be found in the bio.

Many women share with me that they feel overwhelmed by the vast amount of menopause information online. As a GP specializing in menopause management, I've created a concise and evidence-based course that covers the essentials. Find the enrollment link in my bio.

I am really thrilled to have another online course now available. This course is aimed at women wanting to educate themselves about the changes that occur at perimenopause and menopause. I have written this course as a doctor with a special interest in assisting women with hormonal issues and have seen first hand how difficult it can be for women to get accurate and reliable information. My aim is to give concise, organised education that is relevant for women transitioning through peri and menopause. I am aiming to empower women to have the knowledge so they know their options and can seek appropriate medical care that aligns with their needs.

Low libido is a very common experience in the women that I see. There are so many reasons for this and it is not always just about hormones! I attended the Australasian Menopause Society Conference on the weekend and these were 2 books recommended to address issues in this area.

It is not uncommon for women to get an increase in headaches or migraines during the menopause transition. Fluctuating hormones can play havoc with migraines, especially in those women who get headaches associated with menstrual cycle changes. There are many options for treatment and this does sometimes require a combination of therapies. As with all headaches, try to optimise sleep, movement, healthy and regular meals and reduce stress. There are many treatments available for acute headaches and options to prevent headaches. Hormonal treatment options can also help many women. I recommend seeking an experienced health practitioner to help you navigate the options and improve this silent but disabling symptom of menopause.

I am excited to be extending my working hours and have increased availability to see new patients at Juno Specialists in Richmond. I am a Melbourne GP with a special interest in assisting women navigate perimenopause and menopause. I aim to work collaboratively with women to help them make an informed choice about what is right for them at this transition.

Did you know that bowel cancer rates are increasing in young people in Australia? It is now recommended to start screening from age 45 and you can request your free kit online at ncsr.gov.au. It is a simple, quick and painless test that you do in the comfort of your own home. These kits are screening tests for people without symptoms. If you have concerning symptoms like abdominal pain, blood in poo, change in bowel habit or weight loss, you should see your GP instead.

Great news if you are on Slinda as it will be on the PBS from May 1st. This means it will cost just over $31 for a 3 month supply which is a big change from the private script price. You will need to get a new PBS script from your prescriber after May 1 to ensure you don’t pay the old price.

A new guideline has been released by the British Menopause Society that has suggested concerns around potential for Mounjaro, Ozempic and Wegovy to impact the absorption of hormones taken by mouth (tablets, capsules etc). The concern is that these hormones may become less effective so there are recommendations to consider altering the hormone regime. If this is your situation, I would recommend checking with your doctor about whether any changes need to be made. Guideline is here:https://thebms.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/23-BMS-TfC-Use-of-incretin-based-therapies-APRIL2025-C.pdf
