Why I Started This Blog

On a daily basis, I see women navigating the “menopause transition” with incredible resilience but very little support. I realised that while hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and clinical interventions are vital, empowerment through education is what truly changes a woman’s experience.

I created this space to:

• Demystify Perimenopause: Taking the guesswork out of those “is it just me?” moments.
• Translate the Science: Breaking down the latest research into actionable, everyday advice.
• Empower Your Advocacy: Giving you the tools (like my symptom trackers) to lead the conversation with your own medical team.

My Clinical Philosophy

I believe that menopause is not a “disease” to be cured, but a major life transition that deserves specialised clinical attention. Whether we are discussing HRT, lifestyle adjustments, or non-hormonal options, my goal is to help you move from surviving to thriving.

I’m glad you’re here. Let’s navigate this second act together.

“My passion for menopause care isn’t just professional—it’s deeply personal. My own transition into menopause didn’t happen gradually; it was brought on early and abruptly following my treatment for breast cancer.

Navigating the symptoms of medical menopause while managing a cancer recovery gave me a unique perspective that a textbook never could. I understand the frustration of being a ‘complex case’ and the vital importance of finding safe, effective ways to reclaim your quality of life when the ‘standard’ options might not be on the table for you.”
