Dr Louise established the Newson Health Menopause and Wellbeing Centre, a specialist menopause clinic in Stratford-upon-Avon that sees thousands of patients a month – in person and remotely – with over 200 healthcare professionals and staff.

Who would not want another chance in their lives when the perimenopause, i.e. when the complex female hormonal (oestrogen and testosterone) deficiency approaches? Who would not want this chance for their mum, sister, daugther, friend or colleague? The troublesome symtpoms which could involve all organs could be threatening the lives of some women, while others could remain severly disabled, finishing their working careers and unable to care for their family... And now Dr Louise has written the definitive, accessible and evidence-based guide to the perimenopause and menopause. It is the result of years of work in this field – combining not just her expert medical knowledge but the understanding and wisdom she has gained too. It’s time to talk about the menopause openly, to dispel the myths and inform every woman of their choices for this important stage of life.

A lot of really useful info. I wish something like this had been around when I started perimenopause about 19 years ago. Still useful if you have gone through the menopause but still having symptoms. Makes me realise how many symptoms I have and how a lot of things that make you less confident or make you think you have other health issues can all be linked to a change in your hormone levels. After her specialist training in the menopause, Dr Louise discovered she could change the lives of many menopausal women even in one short GP consultation. She found that simply prescribing the right dose of HRT could be transformative for patients. But she also understood how crucial it was to give advice about lifestyle changes too – including exercise, diet and sleep.
