Symptoms of perimenopause such as severe bleeding, memory loss and anxiety can give rise to a section 6 Equality Act disability provided the symptoms have a long-term and substantial adverse effect on normal day-to day-activities.

One of my patients has shared her own menopause story with the hope that it will shine a light on a natural part of ageing that all women will experience, but do not always know much about.

It was a real honour to be invited by the fabulous gardener Sarah Raven to co-host an event at Perch Hill Farm with Liz Earle to celebrate her excellent new book, The Good Menopause Guide, which I have helped with the content.

My business manager, Sarah Davies, and Lynda Bailey, who set up the menopause group in West Midlands Police, have recently developed Talking Menopause.

My clinic is fully booked for six months which is not ideal at all! I am working hard to open a Menopause and Wellbeing Centre in Stratford-upon-Avon in early summer and I have a fantastic team of very inspirational people working with me.
