概要
Pharmacist Kate Thomas interviews Dr Sarah Farrell, GP and principal of Sydney Women’s Wellness, about two major midlife health topics: breast awareness and genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM).
We break down:
• What “breast awareness” means today
• How breast self-exams differ from formal breast cancer screening
• When to see your GP about a breast lump
• Breast density and mammograms
• Why midlife breast changes can feel alarming
We also explore genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), including:
• Vaginal dryness in menopause
• Pain with sex
• Recurrent UTIs after menopause
• Bladder symptoms and estrogen decline
• Why GSM is common but under-treated
We discuss the full treatment ladder:
• Vaginal moisturisers vs lubricants
• Vaginal estrogen
• Prasterone
• When hormonal treatment is appropriate
• Where non-hormonal options like hyaluronic acid vaginal preparations may fit
This evidence-based conversation helps women understand the difference between normal hormonal changes and symptoms that need review — without panic or misinformation.
If you’re searching for answers about menopause, vaginal dryness, breast checks, or GSM treatment options, this episode provides practical, medically grounded guidance.
