The average age of menopause is 51 years and by this time around 50% of women will start to miss periods and have symptoms of the menopause. The most common and distressing symptoms are hot flushes & night sweats when a woman experiences sudden and distressing intense heat in the upper part of the body that can also lead to palpitations and intense anxiety. The menopause causes various other problems including increased risk of osteoporosis, muscle aches and pains, vaginal symptoms and heart problems as well as a loss of libido that can also affect intimate relationships. All of these symptoms associated with menopause can be treated with the help of hormones and our Gynaecologist is on hand to guide you with this stage in your life and ensure your menopause symptoms are treated correctly and effectively.
