I am so pleased to welcome my good friend Louise on to Time to Talk. 

In this episode we cover how we diagnose perimenopause and the key medical information you need to know. 

Louise qualified from Bristol University in 2003. She completed 4 years as an Obstetrics and Gynaecology specialist trainee before changing career path to become a GP.  She has maintained her interest and passion for women’s health and became accredited as ‘GP with Special Interest’ in gynaecology in 2013. She went on to set up a successful community gynaecology clinic in west London where she worked for several years.  She is now based in Bath as a GP but also works as a specialty doctor in gynaecology. Her main area of interest is menopause, and she works closely with Dr Sarah Gray and Dr Jane Davis as a board member for the Primary Care Women’s Health Forum.  

I invited Louise on to have a medical chat about menopause but I know she also is passionate about hormone related mood disorders so I am hoping we can also touch on this.   

Medical treatments are only one way we can help manage the menopause. Listen out for our other episodes on how we can use our body and our mindset alongside good medical care.
