At London Hormone Clinic we specialise in treating a wide range of hormonal conditions. Jan and Amalia have worked together for several years.

At LHC we have expertise in treating a wide range of hormonal conditions. We aim for hormonal optimization to restore women’s health and wellbeing. We firmly believe that women should not suffer in silence and strive to help our patients recover and achieve their full potential. They had in fact been at the same school (though not quite at the same time). Their passion for promoting bio-identical hormone therapy has inspired them to set up LHC, where they can combine their extensive knowledge with experience. LHC allows them to adopt an integrated approach to optimum health, greatly enhanced by their shared ideology and approach to patient care

🔸Endometriosis affects around one in ten women and girls of reproductive age globally.

🔸It impacts 1.5 million in the UK – a similar number to those who have diabetes.

🔸Around one in six of those women are forced to leave the workplace due to their condition.

🔸Endometriosis costs the UK economy £8.2 billion each year in lost work and healthcare costs.

🔸And yet, women still wait on average NINE years for diagnosis and treatment.

Grim statistics.

At LHC we are highly experienced at treating women with endometriosis, and understand that early diagnosis is key. Treating the hormonal triggers of endometriosis with a high dose of progesterone eradicates symptoms, prevents disease progression, avoids years of pain and unnecessary surgery, and protects fertility. And, once treated, helps to prevent endometriosis from coming back.

Whilst the conversation around endometriosis has grown over the past few years, and we, of course welcome that, what is really needed is action so that those 1.5 million women can benefit from early diagnosis and treatment.

The main hormonal change for women from their mid-30s through to perimenopause is low progesterone but GPs and gynaecologists, when giving HRT, often treat women with both oestrogen and progesterone. The oestrogen component is often not necessary as if women are still having periods – whether these are irregular or different - they are still producing enough oestrogen of their own and giving them more can make their symptoms worse.
To find out more about the difference between perimenopause and low progesterone, have a look at the journal section of the website:

So many women tell us the same story. They’re eating less and working out more, and still, they’re gaining weight around their midline in midlife.

Fluctuating and falling hormone levels in perimenopause and menopause affect the way our bodies deal with carbohydrates and sugars and cause the pancreas to make more insulin. All of this means higher levels of sugar in the blood which, if not used for energy, are laid down as fat.

Before, this fat would have settled over the hips, bottom, thighs, and arms, and yet in midlife, it deposits itself, quite noticeably, around the stomach, changing the way we look, and feel. We also, at this time of life, lose muscle mass, something that’s known as sarcopenia. And as muscle is more metabolically active then fat, it helps us to lose weight even when we are sitting still.

For years women have avoided HRT because they fear (or have been told) that it causes weight gain. It doesn’t and in fact, it can help to combat it.

When oestrogen falls at menopause, it impacts metabolism. Reintroducing oestrogen kickstarts metabolism which helps to maintain a healthy weight.

Taking HRT should also improve sleep, boost mood and counteract the loss of self-esteem that many women experience, helping them to become more motivated to exercise and fuel their bodies in the right way.

And, of course, there are proven bigger benefits of HRT which have been categorically proved in study after study. It helps to prevent dementia, heart disease and osteoporosis.

Despite huge strides forward in menopause education, there is still mistrust and uncertainty amongst women when it comes to taking HRT.

Thousands of studies have looked at HRT now, and all have come to the exact same conclusion: it is safe, completely safe. And more than that, taking it has been shown to improve long-term health by protecting the brain, heart, and bones.

It is, a little more complicated though. All these studies have shown that there is one issue within HRT, something that does increase (but only slightly) the risk of cancer, clots, and strokes and that is synthetic progestogen.

But and this is an absolutely massive BUT, thanks to the thousands of studies into HRT, the NICE (National Institute for Clinical Excellence) guidelines, and the British Menopause Society’s recommendations, synthetic progestogen is no longer the first line treatment. Instead, women are given real progesterone – otherwise known as body or bio-identical progesterone – which replicates exactly the hormones the body itself makes. This has been proven time and time again to be completely safe and to even reduce a woman’s risk of getting breast cancer by 40 per cent.

We only ever prescribe body/bio-identical hormones for this very reason. If you’d like to know more about the way we work and our exceptional team of hormone specialists, take a look at our website: www.londonhormoneclinic.com

We hear time and time again from patients who have been told that the pain they experience on their periods and the heavy bleeding is ‘completely normal’ when, in fact, it absolutely isn’t.

The fact is, there is no ‘normal’. For some people, the monthly bleed is light and lasts three days, for others it’s heavy and lasts five to six. Things change from month to month and over time as we age. All of this is ok.

What’s not ok, or ‘normal’ is leaking and clots, having to change a pad/tampon/cup every couple of hours, or being in excruciating pain. Periods may be uncomfortable, but they should be manageable and not horrendous. Normal life should be able to continue. If this isn’t the case, you should be checked out.

To find out more about the reasons for heavy and painful periods and how we treat them, check out our website. You'll may also find our article on this helpful: www.londonhormoneclinic.com/journal/periods-whats-normal-and-whats-not

Barely a day goes by without headlines about weight loss medications and concerns over their safety and we’re often asked what they should be used for and whether they are safe.

At London Hormone Clinic we medically prescribe GLP-1 medications, carefully and continually monitor patients when they are on them and support patients nutritionally and psychologically through the process. And because of this protocol we have an excellent success rate.

Taken like this and these medications are not only safe, but hugely beneficial for people with diabetes, heart disease and insulin resistance.

The problem comes when people take GLP-1 medications for weight loss alone and without medical supervision. Research shows that in these cases, 85% of people, when they stop taking the medications, regain the weight they have lost. Others suffer significant side effects and there are more and more cases of particularly young women presenting in A&E with serious complications from having taken weight loss drugs.

To find out more about weight loss medications and why and how we use them, look at the journal section of our website: www.londonhormoneclinic/journal

Unlike many clinics, which have a narrow focus on the menopause, we are unrivalled in our expertise at treating women at all stages of their life cycle – from the age of eighteen, through the reproductive years, and the menopause.

And, when it comes to menopause treatment, we offer a bespoke, integrated approach.

We understand that menopause is a difficult time for many women, but there is no reason at all for anyone to suffer. When ovarian hormone levels drop, women struggle to sleep, and often find they are low in energy and motivation. The thyroid can be affected, and early prediabetes may also start to develop. Most GPs and menopause clinics only look at oestrogen and progesterone levels, whilst some consider testosterone too, but in many cases, this isn’t enough. We go much further, replacing thyroid hormones, Dhea for motivation, melatonin for sleep, and reversing the onset of early pre-diabetes, the driver for many long-term health problems.

Despite its many benefits, currently only around 8,000 of the 3 million women of menopausal age in the UK are prescribed testosterone as part of NHS hormone replacement therapy. And those that are, are given creams and gels that are designed to be used by men. Women can still access testosterone if their GP is willing to prescribe it, but current guidelines say this can only be done to treat severely reduced libido.

That’s because the growing body of evidence which shows the benefits of testosterone replacement for menopausal women hasn’t yet filtered down to NHS guidelines.

Private menopause and hormone clinics are prescribing testosterone for patients – both male and female – and seeing huge benefits. They do this based on both an evaluation of a patient’s symptoms, and comprehensive blood tests, which rule out other issues such as thyroid function and insulin resistance and give a clear measure of the amount of testosterone needed to replenish deficiencies and achieve optimal health.

And they do this not only to alleviate symptoms present today, but to maintain cardiovascular health, avoid musculoskeletal decline, and optimise metabolic efficiency – the key to managing insulin resistance. All of which are absolutely critical when it comes to maintaining long-term health.

What’s needed now is equality in access to testosterone replacement, so that all women and men who need it can access it.

As a highly experienced team of doctors, we're passionate about sharing our knowledge on hormones and health.

That's why we take the time to listen to our patients, to fully understand their symptoms and the impact they are having, and to explain both our diagnosis and treatment options.

We also take every opportunity to talk to wider audiences about the common hormonal conditions that may be affecting them. When an editor or journalist asks for information, we are always happy to respond.

We've recently featured on the BBC, in The Guardian, Stylist, Metro, Mail on Sunday, Independent and Harper's Bazaar amongst many others talking about weight loss medications, hrt, menopause, periods, pregnancy and endometriosis.

Our most read journal of the year was about perimenopause diagnosis and treatment, and the fact that so many women in their forties self-diagnose perimenopause, or are told they are perimenopausal, when in fact they are not. Many of these women are in fact experiencing low progesterone, something that is rarely talked about and hugely misunderstood. To find out more about perimenopause and low progesterone and why it's important to recognise and treat them differently, head to our website, or contact us for more information.

Hair loss/thinning is part of the natural ageing process, as common as it is distressing.

It can, however, be treated. Firstly by working out whether insulin resistance is to blame. And, if it is, treating it through lifestyle changes and hormone replacement therapy.

Hair tonics can be prescribed and are a very effective treatment. Hair supplements have their place too as people with hair loss are often deficient in nutrients such as B vitamins and ferritin. These can be bought from high street chemists (you don’t need to buy expensive brands).

And then, there's diet. Hair is low down the pecking order when it comes to nutrients, so it's important to have a varied, balanced diet.

So many women in their forties believe - or are told - they're perimenopausal, when in actual fact, they're probably not. In all likelihood, what's happening is low progesterone, something that's rarely talked about and often misunderstood.

The hormone, progesterone, plays a vital role in the body,
improving energy and stamina, burning fat, normalising blood sugar, helping build bones and supporting thyroid function.
It’s a natural diuretic and antidepressant, so it’s easy to see why, when levels are low, women really don’t feel like themselves.

There are very few places women in their forties can go, to get an understanding of, and treatment for, hormone imbalance. Our clinic is one of them. We have an exceptional team of specialist doctors with years of experience in hormonal care. To find out what makes our clinic different, check out our website or get in touch.
