Menopause.
Hot flushes, sleep problems, mood, joints, dryness — menopause symptoms are real, measurable and treatable. Together we clarify whether hormone therapy (MHT) makes sense for you: individual benefit-risk assessment, oral or transdermal — and what helps if hormones are not an option.
That's the median duration of hot flushes and night sweats — much longer than most expect. Waiting it out is rarely a good plan.

How it works
Structured history: symptoms, medical background, risk profile (thrombosis, family breast cancer, blood pressure).

What you should know.
Does hormone therapy cause breast cancer?
The answer is nuanced: risk depends on the preparation, duration of use and your history. For many women the benefit outweighs the risk — we calculate your personal profile together, without downplaying or dramatising.
Are there alternatives without hormones?
Yes. From lifestyle (sleep, exercise, nutrition) to plant-based options, non-hormonal medication and local oestrogens without systemic effect. We discuss honestly what is evidence-based — and what is marketing.
What should I bring?
A list of your medications, known conditions (especially thrombosis, breast cancer in the family), your last check-up/mammogram. Notes on your symptoms help the conversation.
