Menopause education is not mandatory for healthcare professionals. Dr Newson discusses the importance of menopause education with Menopause & Wellbeing Centre Practice Manager, Sarah Baker who previously worked in a private hospital and ran educational events for doctors on various subjects. Sarah describes how women’s health events were always popular and, in her experience, doctors have a real thirst for knowledge regarding the menopause and safe prescribing of HRT.
Sarah Baker's Three Take Home Tips to Help You on Your Menopause Journey:
Do your research! There are so many great resources available, such as menopausedoctor.co.uk, and if you have the right information it will help when you visit your GP.
Be brave and talk to other people - you may find a lot of your friends are going through the same thing and you can help and support each other.
Talk to your family and involve your partner. You are not on your own and there is help out there!
