サマリー
あらすじ・解説
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:
- Know there is a difference between older synthetic hormones and body identical, natural hormones
- Be aware of the health benefits of HRT
- The importance of shared decision making and patient-centred care.
