Simply Menopausal

Teenagers leaving the nest often coincides with menopausal years. A brutal whack of emotions and hormones isn't an easy mix.🤯

It can throw you with sadness, guilt, worry and a bit of an identity crisis to boot. Whilst you'll always be Mum, it can take time to figure out who YOU are again.

If you feel you're also going through your menopausal years and finding that emotions are taking hold, it could be beneficial to book in a menopause consultation. Not just to explore these feelings but to ensure you're not missing out on vital hormones that could help you transition into this next stage of life healthily and happily.

Sending love to all parents going through a quieter home! We know how it feels. 🥺💖

If you ever need any extra connection besides our consultations, Sip & Share is a great place to head too. Read more on our website.

What a sad headline to read. 🧩 Testosterone is often the missing piece of the HRT puzzle for women. It is recommended within NICE guidelines for women with low libido who have not responded to oestrogen alone.

But it's not just good for that alone - studies show there's benefit in bone health, muscle strength and brain fog amongst many other things.

Sadly, since it is not currently licensed for women in the UK, many women have to visit private specialists to get a prescription.

It's a sad headline because women shouldn't have to feel they need to lie or hide their identity in order to relieve menopausal issues.

We ALWAYS encourage women to speak to specialists when it comes to HRT. It is dangerous to seek out medication without specialist recommendation or prescription.

One menopause specialist says she has seen women with up to 12 times the safe level of the hormone.
