Health in Menopause

Health in Menopause Our team of doctors provide specialist menopause advice to women in perimenopause, menopause, surgical menopause, early menopause and POI.

Each woman is an individual, her experience of the menopause is unique, but it needn’t be lonely. For many women symptoms start in the perimenopause and continue beyond the menopause. Hot flushes and night sweats are well known but less well known are the psychological effects of the menopause - low mood, anxiety, poor sleep, brain fog, loss of confidence etc. These can negatively impact quality of life, relationships and ability to work. Symptoms can last on average for 7-8 years but for some women they continue for decades. Throughout your appointment at Health in Menopause, our expert doctors will take time to listen and to explore how the menopause is affecting you. They will provide evidence-based advice and guidance regarding lifestyle measures to reduce your symptoms. As GPs, we are well qualified in providing holistic health care and have the experience to advise on the role of HRT in relieving the symptoms of the menopause and optimising your future health. With the correct advice, help and support this can be a positive phase of life. But if you’re struggling with symptoms and unsure what to do, book an appointment today. Don’t wait, it’s already been too long.

Are you struggling with histamine intolerance? It isn’t widely recognised, which is why tracking symptoms and working with a healthcare professional is so important.

Measures that may help improve symptoms include:
💡 Supporting your gut health and diet
💡 Reducing stress
💡 Reviewing your HRT
💡 Supplementing
💡 Approporate antihistamine use

What helps one person may not help another, so it’s important to find what works for you.

🚨 Breaking news: Menopause care is being named as a priority in the NHS’s new online hospital service, set to launch via the NHS App in 2027. 🚨

For the first time, menopause will be one of the initial conditions eligible for specialist assessments, follow-ups and ongoing care delivered online, with a dedicated NHS clinical team.

This could mean quicker access, fewer waits and more continuity of care for people with menopausal symptoms, without removing the option for face-to-face appointments.

It’s a clear signal that menopause is finally being recognised as a serious, long-term health issue that deserves specialist-led care - not something to be dismissed or delayed.

We’ll be watching closely to see how this develops.

“New year, new me” - the pressure to suddenly become a better, more productive, more put-together version of yourself can feel overwhelming. Especially when it seems like everyone else has it all figured out (spoiler: they don’t)🫢.

This year, try letting go of the comparison and focusing on what actually supports your wellbeing. Small, realistic changes. Honest conversations. Self-kindness. Goals that fit your life, not someone else’s highlight reel.

You don’t need to measure up to anyone’s idea of who you “should” be. 🥰

This time of year can feel heavy as well as joyful. Here’s Dr Alice Duffy giving the gift of compassion 🎄✨💛

If old emotions, grief or past trauma are resurfacing, or if this December simply feels different to years gone by, be gentle with yourself. It’s okay not to feel okay. Reach out, rest, connect with someone you trust, and try to offer yourself the same compassion you’d give to a friend in need. 🥰
