Understanding Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT)
Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT) is a medical treatment used to replace hormones that naturally decline during perimenopause and menopause.
As hormone levels change, some women experience symptoms that can affect their quality of life, daily activities, and overall wellbeing. MHT aims to restore hormone levels and help manage symptoms associated with this transition.There are a variety of MHT options available, including different hormone formulations, delivery methods, and treatment approaches.
The most appropriate option will depend on your symptoms, medical history, stage of menopause, and individual health needs. This is why treatment should always be tailored to the individual.
For many women, MHT can provide significant symptom relief while also supporting long-term health outcomes.
Understanding your treatment options and discussing the potential benefits and risks with an experienced healthcare professional can help you determine whether MHT is right for you.

Peri-Menopause Can Affect More Than Your Hormones
While menopause is driven by hormonal changes, its effects often extend far beyond hormone levels alone. Many women notice changes in their energy, confidence, sleep quality, concentration, physical health, and overall sense of wellbeing.
Everyday activities can feel different, and the demands of work, family, relationships, and personal health may become more challenging to manage.
These changes can sometimes feel confusing or overwhelming, particularly when they develop gradually over time. Understanding the broader impact menopause can have on your body and lifestyle is an important part of receiving the right support and creating a personalised plan for
long-term health and wellbeing.

Common Questions About Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT)
Explore answers to common questions about Menopause Hormone Therapy, including how it works,
potential benefits, suitability, and treatment considerations.
What is menopause?
Menopause is a natural stage of life that marks the end of a woman's reproductive years. It occurs when the ovaries gradually produce less oestrogen and progesterone, causing menstrual periods to stop. Menopause is officially diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a period and is a normal part of ageing that every woman experiences differently.
What is perimenopause?
Perimenopause is the transitional stage leading up to menopause, when hormone levels begin to fluctuate and the ovaries gradually produce less oestrogen. It can begin several years before menopause and may cause changes to menstrual cycles and other symptoms. Perimenopause ends once menopause is reached, which is confirmed after 12 consecutive months without a period.
What age does menopause start?
Menopause most commonly occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, with the average age being around 51. However, the hormonal changes leading up to menopause, known as perimenopause, can begin several years earlier. Every woman is different, and the timing and symptoms experienced during this transition can vary significantly from person to person.
What are menopause symptoms?
Menopause symptoms vary from woman to woman but may include hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, mood changes, brain fog, vaginal dryness, reduced libido, fatigue, and changes in weight or energy levels.
How do you know you're in menopause?
Menopause is confirmed after 12 months without a period. Common signs leading up to menopause may include changes in menstrual cycles, hot flushes, sleep disturbances, mood changes, and other symptoms associated with fluctuating hormone levels.
How long does menopause last?
Menopause itself is a point in time, but the transition leading up to it, known as perimenopause, can last several years. Symptoms may continue for a number of years after menopause, although every woman's experience is different.
How does menopause affect your brain?
Changing hormone levels can affect memory, concentration, mood, and mental clarity. Many women describe experiencing "brain fog" during menopause, which can impact focus and cognitive performance, but these changes are often manageable with appropriate support.
What does menopause do to your body?
Menopause can affect many areas of the body, including bone health, muscle mass, heart health, metabolism, skin, and vaginal health. Hormonal changes can also influence energy levels, sleep quality, and overall wellbeing, making personalised care and support important.
