Menopause isn’t just a hormonal transition, it’s a full-body recalibration.

Lifestyle medicine and HRT work best together, addressing the root causes of fatigue, weight change, mood shifts, and sleep disruption.

Nutrition, movement, stress management, and connection aren’t “nice extras”, they are the foundation for long-term health.

It’s time we move beyond symptom management and towards whole-person care in menopause.

This World Menopause Month, we’re proud to support the Menopause Support “Make Menopause Matter” campaign.

At Bristol Menopause Clinic, we believe every woman deserves access to the right care, support, and guidance during menopause.

We’re proudly donating 3 initial consultations and 3 follow-up consultations to three women across England who may not otherwise have access to specialist menopause care.

Let’s continue to support one another and ensure every woman receives the care, understanding, and support she truly deserves.

Back to Basics: Five types of menopause

While menopause is a natural life stage, it can occur in different ways depending on age and cause.

There are five recognised classifications of menopause:

Natural Menopause – The most common type, occurring naturally between ages 45–55 as the ovaries gradually stop producing hormones.

Early Menopause – Occurs before age 45.

Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) – Loss of ovarian function before age 40, which may be spontaneous or due to genetic, autoimmune, or medical causes.

Surgical Menopause – Happens suddenly after both ovaries are removed (bilateral oophorectomy), causing an abrupt drop in hormones and often more intense symptoms.

Medically Induced Menopause – Caused by treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or hormone-blocking medications that suppress ovarian function.

Understanding these types helps tailor management, ensuring women receive the right support, hormone therapy, and lifestyle advice for their individual needs.

Menopause is not solely about hormonal change, although declining oestrogen levels are central to the transition. It is a multisystem process that can affect cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, neurological, and urogenital health.

The impact extends beyond immediate symptoms, with implications for long-term outcomes such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive health.

Lifestyle factors including nutrition, physical activity, sleep, smoking, and alcohol intake, as well as access to psychosocial support, play a critical role in how women experience menopause and in determining long-term health and wellbeing.

A holistic, individualised approach is therefore essential to effective menopause care.

Black History Month: Standing Firm in Power and Pride

This Black History Month, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of Black women, while recognising that inequities in women’s health remain a critical issue that can no longer be ignored.

Let’s use this month to listen, learn, and take action together.

The belief that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is dangerous for most women is a common misconception. For the majority of women who are under 60 years of age or within 10 years of the menopause, the benefits of HRT outweigh the risks.

HRT is the most effective treatment for vasomotor symptoms such as hot flushes and night sweats, and it also provides important benefits for bone and cardiovascular health.

While there are risks, these depend on the type of HRT, the dose, and the individual woman’s risk profile. Decisions about HRT should therefore be personalised, balancing risks and benefits to optimise both symptom control and long-term health.

This year’s theme for World Mental Health Day is “Mental Health in an Unequal World: Access to Services in Catastrophes and Emergencies”, this is a reminder to us how vital it is that everyone, everywhere, has access to the care they need, especially during times of crisis.

For women, mental health challenges often sit at the intersection of hormones, life stages, and lived experience. Stress, grief, caregiving responsibilities, and hormonal change can all amplify anxiety, low mood, and sleep disturbance, yet access to the right support remains unequal.

During global, community, or personal emergencies, women’s health and mental wellbeing are often overlooked. Whether through economic pressures, trauma, or lack of access to specialist care, too many are left struggling in silence.

At Bristol Menopause Clinic, we believe every woman deserves timely, compassionate, and evidence-based support, whether that’s through medical care, lifestyle advice, or simply a safe space to talk.

Today, we stand with women everywhere:
💚 Advocating for equal access to mental health care
💚 Recognising the emotional impact of hormonal and life transitions
💚 Promoting holistic, joined-up support for body and mind

Take a moment to check in with yourself, and with others. Reaching out can be the first step toward feeling better.
