61 – Living with untreated urinary symptoms

In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by Penny Pijnenburg for a powerful conversation about genitourinary syndrome , a condition that affects most women but is still rarely talked about.

Penny shares her experience of living with severe symptoms for more than 14 years before realising they were linked to perimenopause, and the frustration of not being offered the right treatment.

Together, they explore why these symptoms are so often missed, how they can worsenwithout treatment, and why simple, low-dose hormones can be life-changing. Nowpassionate about raising awareness, Penny is helping ensure other women don’t go through the same experience.
