The Doctor Will See You Now: Menopause

Wednesday 18th October is World Menopause Day which aims to raise awareness of menopause and break the stigma

Dr Rosie Shire joined us on the morning show to talk about the basics of Menopause and this year’s theme – Cardiovascular Disease.

This is a companion broadcast following our Wellbeing expert, Leila Coulter who yesterday gave advice on mindset and mental health.

HRT

Medical Science now provides a range of solutions, including Hormone Replacement Therapy.

Though HRT may have had some bad publicity in the past, leading Doctors now deem it a safe and very effective treatment – though as always, under close medical supervision.

As always, your own Doctor is best placed to give you the right advice and solutions to meet your need.
