❤️ The NHS has launched a new online self-assessment tool for women who experience a bleed or spotting they’ve been through the menopause and who are not on HRT. ❤️

📍It’s for women in Bury, Salford, Oldham, Heywood, Middleton, and Rochdale. 📍

🩸Any bleeding from your va**na after the menopause (when your periods have been stopped for 12 months or more) should be checked out to rule out possible womb cancer. 🩸

👩🏽‍⚕️You can now do this without booking an appointment with a GP.👩🏽‍⚕️

❓Simply answer a few questions on the online self-assessment tool to request a hospital check.❓

💧🥗 Diet & Hydration Week at Dr Hamid’s Practice 🥗💧

Looking after your health starts with the basics — what you eat and how well you stay hydrated. During Diet & Hydration Week, we’re encouraging everyone to take small, simple steps that can make a big difference to overall wellbeing.

✅ Drink plenty of water throughout the day
✅ Include a variety of fruits and vegetables in your meals
✅ Reduce sugary drinks and highly processed foods
✅ Don’t skip meals — regular eating helps maintain energy levels

Good nutrition and hydration support your immune system, improve concentration, and help your body function at its best.

If you’re unsure about your diet, living with a health condition, or caring for someone who may be at risk of dehydration or poor nutrition, our team is here to help.

📍 Speak to a member of the practice team for advice and support.
