✨ Don’t Go Rogue ✨

If you’re on HRT, please resist the urge to tweak your dose on your own. Too often, we see women taking unlicensed amounts of oestrogen because they feel it’s “safe” to increase but remember, your progesterone is there to protect the lining of your womb.

⚠️ Stopping or reducing your progesterone without medical guidance can leave your womb unprotected from the effects of oestrogen.

And if you’re struggling with side effects from progesterone please don’t just stop it. Talk to your prescriber. There are usually options we can explore together to find the right balance for you.

Your health and safety matter. Don’t go rogue make a plan with your prescriber. 💙

✨ Hello & Welcome ✨

We’re so excited to see so many new faces here! 💕
We are two friends (and partners in crime 😉), both GPs with 20 years’ experience, specialising in women’s health across the NHS and in our dedicated private clinic.

As British Menopause Society specialists, we’re passionate about bringing you evidence-based advice on all things women’s health from hormones to menopause, lifestyle to wellbeing.

Over the past year, we’ve had the privilege of connecting with so many fabulous professionals who share our vision. Together, we’ve built a network we love to recommend because when we explain the why, they help guide you with the how. 💡

We’re loving this journey and can’t wait to celebrate our first birthday at WWC soon! 🥳

Meet Nalvee® a progestogen-only tablet designed to be taken alongside estrogen in HRT.

💊 Offers endometrial protection for women on estrogen who still have a uterus
🌿 Mimics natural progesterone more closely than older synthetic progestins
🧠 Linked to fewer mood swings, less bloating, and better cycle control

Until now, the only way to get dydrogesterone in the UK was in a combined tablet with estrogen (Femoston).
Now with Nalvee, doctors and patients have more flexibility to customize HRT mixing and matching doses to suit your body.

More choice. More control. More you.

We were also wowed by the project on bone heath and HRT led by the fabulous .rvohra ( please keep doing what you do- we cheerlead you!)

we are looking forward to our webinar date on group menopause consultations

We loved the talk led by who helped us reaffirm that our advice around nutrition is vital in clicking together the happy joyful health span puzzle!

We also enjoyed the Aperol on the deck and the kid free fry up breakfast moment !!!

☀️ Hot Weather & HRT: Don’t Let the Heat Ruin Your Hormones!

Your hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can lose its effectiveness if it’s not stored properly especially in hot weather!

💊 Keep it cool: Most HRT (including tablets, gels, and patches) should be stored below 25°C (77°F).
🚗 Never leave it in the car! Temperatures inside can soar and damage the medication.
👜 Traveling? Use a small insulated bag or cooler pack to protect your meds.
🏠 Store smart: A bedroom drawer or cupboard away from direct sunlight is usually better than a steamy bathroom.

If in doubt, check the packaging or ask your pharmacist. Proper storage = proper support for your body. 💪💗
