Support Through the Menopause


The Menopause is a natural part of the ageing process which usual occurs in women between the ages of 45 and 55 years of age. The Menopause is when periods stop, and women are unable to get pregnant naturally.  

Women are normally confirmed as being menopausal by the symptoms they present but if they are under the age of 45 a blood test may need to be done to measure the hormone levels. 

Women going through the Menopause may experience symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, difficultly sleeping, anxiety and low mood, vaginal dryness and reduced sex drive (libido).
