278 - World Menopause Month special: common questions answered, with Dr Rebecca Lewis

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.

Dr Louise Newson’s first-ever live theatre tour, Hormones and Menopause – The Great Debate, runs until 12 November. For more information and tickets, click here.
