At The BMC Menopause we know that you need somewhere to turn to for support, advice and treatment when suffering menopausal symptoms. we provide a woman-centred service for women going through the menopause transition, offering support, guidance, information and treatment tailored to the individual woman’s needs. we know that each woman’s experience of the menopause is different and management of symptoms therefore needs to be considered on an individual basis.
If you feel that you are suffering symptoms and would like to discuss your concerns, we can arrange an initial consultation at a time convenient to you to assess your condition. A specialist consultant, experienced in menopause, will discuss your symptoms, take a medical history and talk through any proposed treatment. Not everyone needs medication, but many women do benefit from therapy. There is much emphasis on an holistic approach to difficulties in this critical phase of a woman’s life

- Any peri-menopausal woman seeking information and advice on matters relating to the menopause or to well-woman assessment. This may include problems with anxiety, lack of confidence, concern over the aging process, lack of concentration, poor memory etc.
