Clip taken from the Clinical Trustee Update I provide to @themenocharity Board each quarter to signpost our mission. Bone health and its importance is crucial and until we get this into awareness and prevention models we are missing huge pockets of vulnerable women and the inequality widens.

How are you keeping? I hope the lighter and longer days are fulfilling. The world can feel very overwhelming and I’m always wondering how much I can do about it. Should I worry about things I cannot change?? Are our young #safe ? It’s totally bombarding yet there are small things that can make a difference. It’s important for me to #staykind and #makesmallchange . Such as make a donation, reach out to a friend, cook for someone, visit and connect with teens. All these can make someone’s day and make you hopeful. Yesterday, I helped a friend and gave some time to charity. I made banana bread ahhhh… the smell alone made my teen happy! Plus the satisfaction of not wasting the bananas! (I will not use the emoji as I dread what it may mean!?).

I’ve been feeling the juggle of #work #family and #health and it’s hard to even begin to balance all that needs attention. So somethings have to give and social media and news was some of them. I’m such an advocate of #selfcare but it doesn’t make prioritising me any easier. Perhaps that’s why women often struggle to put themselves first… because it’s jolly well hard to do so! Have a great day and I hope this gives you some reassurance that it is hard but small things count. 

Does this resonate with you? 👇🏼

#lunchandlearn on MENOPAUSE BACK TO BASICS & BEYOND for #healthcareprofessionals covering all the above. I love the power of case studies! 

We covered these topics - contraception, lifestyle choices, share decision-making, perimenopause, early menopause, heavy bleeding, lack of evidence for herbal treatments and Acupuncture , hormone replacement therapy options and treatment protocols, migraines, unscheduled bleeding while on HRT, risk factors for endometrial buildup, #menowashing and so much more. All through 6 case studies. 

Who says menopause management is easy medicine?? 

When done well, menopause is definitely life changing medicine!

Menopause is certainly not #onesizefitsall and #individualised care is important as is #feelingheard and #seen. No one should suffer needlessly and there is much we understand and know that can be done better now.

Symptoms are usually worse between late March and September, depending on where in UK you live, especially when it’s warm, humid and windy. This is when the pollen count is at its highest. Tree pollen has started now and this is what made me think of posting this! 

Hay fever can last for weeks or months, unlike a cold, which usually goes away after 1-2 weeks. #antihistamines are mainstay of treatment. If you’d like advice on this there are good websites such as #nhs #metoffice and your #communitypharmacy is a valuable source of in person information especially as many of the antihistamines are available over the counter. 

Interestingly, I never had hayfever until the last four years when I became perimenopausal. There is now a theory of how the drop in oestrogen can affect your immunity and you can find intolerance and reactions to things you previously were fine with. Presenting with food intolerance, irritable bowel and hayfever. What are you finding? 

Midlife really is a puzzle! Right off to get my antihistamine 🫡

Testosterone in Menopause - quick summary of a brilliant paper that summarises the #goodbadandugly in The Pharmaceutical Journal. Link in my stories to access this. The surge in demand, with variation in availability and no female licensed product is causing impact that needs a long term strategy before which there is a need for robust research in women. #testosteronereplacement #hrt #menopause #testosteroneinwomen #testosterone #hormonetherapy #hormonereplacementtherapy

There is a wealth of information on menopause at the moment and I often meet women who feel overwhelmed with it all and cannot see how to best help themselves. My advice is to share the responsibility with your health professional and arm yourself with a symptom tracker, your hormonal and family history and get individualised care that is best tailored to you.
