  • Summary

  • In a special episode to mark World Menopause Month, and ahead of World Menopause Day on 18 October, Dr Louise is joined by Dr Rebecca Lewis, co-founder of Newson Health.

    Together they cover some of the most frequently asked questions about perimenopause, menopause and HRT, including:

    • When should I expect symptoms to improve after starting HRT?
    • How long can I take HRT for?

    Plus advice on taking a holistic approach to menopause, tracking your symptoms, and talking to your healthcare professional.

    Dr Rebecca also suggests three things women and healthcare professionals should consider about hormones:

    1. Know there is a difference between older synthetic hormones and body identical, natural hormones
    2. Be aware of the health benefits of HRT
    3. The importance of shared decision making and patient-centred care.

    You can download the balance app here, and the Easy HRT prescribing guide mentioned in the episode here.
