What is menopause? 

Menopause is when a woman’s periods stop for two years, and a woman can no longer get pregnant naturally. It usually occurs between the ages of 45-55 but can occur earlier due to premature ovarian insufficiency or other reasons, such as the woman having undergone a hysterectomy.

What is Perimenopause?

Perimenopause is the phase of a woman’s life which occurs several years before the menopause. This usually occurs from the late 30s onwards, but in some women, even before this, if there is premature ovarian failure. Certain symptoms, such as mood changes, can happen during this time as the hormonal change is taking place.

What sort of symptoms will I likely get during the menopause?

You may experience a whole range of different symptoms, which typically include mood changes such as anxiety or depression, hot flushes, sleep disturbance, brain fog, muscular aches and pains, joint pain, poor libido, vaginal dryness and fatigue.

What sort of symptoms am I likely to get during perimenopause?

You may notice changes in your menstrual cycle which can either mean your periods get heavy or lighter. You may experience symptoms similar to the menopausal symptoms above but they would tend to be milder.

What are the benefits of taking Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?

HRT can help reduce or eliminate most or all menopausal symptoms. It is also known to reduce your risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. Evidence shows it can reduce your risk of dementia, bowel cancer, type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis and depression.

Can everyone have Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?

Along with the benefits of HRT, there are some risks, so it is important that you do have a consultation with one of our Wells doctors to make sure you are a candidate for HRT and that it would be safe for you to take.

Can I book a follow-up appointment? 

The Menopause Consultation plan includes two 20-minute follow-up appointments, which can be booked up to a year after your initial consultation.  After your initial consultation you will receive an email prompting you to book your next appointment online.

What kind of specialists can I be referred to? 

You may be referred to a women's health physiotherapist, therapist, counsellor, or gynaecologist, depending on your needs.
