This week sees World Menopause Day, giving us time to reflect on the progress being made in helping women through this period in their lives.
One of the leading experts is Dr Louise Newson, who regularly has visitors from all over the world to her clinic in Stratford Upon Avon.
She has been talking about how far we’ve come but gives a note of caution that there is still a very long way to go:
“We have been working really hard to improve education and knowledge to as many people as possible. Awareness has grown, conversations have opened up and more women are recognising the important roles our hormones progesterone, estradiol and testosterone have for our health and wellbeing.
However, globally only around 5% of menopausal women are currently prescribed hormones so we have a long way to go.
