What many women don’t realise about HRT… It’s not what it used to be and that’s a very good thing!😀

Today, most HRT prescribed in the UK is body-identical. That means the hormones used are designed to closely mimic the ones your body produces naturally, particularly oestrogen and progesterone.

This kind of HRT is considered the lowest risk option, and it’s usually very well tolerated.

So if you’re exploring your options or wondering if HRT is right for you, it’s helpful to know you’re not replacing your hormones with something unfamiliar, you’re topping up what your body is no longer producing in the same way.

Got questions about HRT? Always speak to a qualified menopause specialist. Knowledge is power ❤️

“I didn’t even know contraception could *do* that.”

If I had a pound for every time I heard this in clinic… 😅

Truth is, contraception is *so* much more than just not getting pregnant.

It can:

✔️ Make periods lighter (or stop them altogether)

✔️ Help with hormone-driven acne

✔️ Give you control over when your period comes

✔️ Free you from the pressure of remembering a daily pill

And with so many different types, from coils to patches, rings to injections, it’s about choosing what works best for *you*.

We talk about “the pill” like it’s the only option, but there’s a whole menu of choices (with benefits you might not have even considered).

→ If you’ve ever felt like your current contraception isn’t quite working for you, or you want to explore what else is out there, we’re here for that.

📲 Book your appointment with The Women’s Clinic today, and let’s find the option that works with your body, not against it.
