Menopause and Perimenopause

The menopause is a natural process that occurs when ovaries stop producing hormones, and periods stop. Many women experience symptoms caused by fluctuating hormone levels for up to ten years before menopause (the ‘Perimenopause’).  Oestrogen has important roles in the body and low levels following the menopause, or after having ovaries removed surgically, can have a big impact on quality of life and ability to work, as well as future health. Topping up oestrogen levels using Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), can improve symptoms, is safe and effective for most people, and has beneficial effects on future health.
