Private Prescriptions: If appropriate, your GP will provide a private prescription for testosterone to address your specific needs. Follow-up GP Letter: After the consultation and blood test results, a detailed letter from the GP will be sent outlining the recommendations and treatment plan, including any follow-up or adjustments to your HRT. Book here Benefits of the Appointment: Improved Energy and Vitality: Testosterone therapy can help reduce fatigue and increase energy levels, supporting overall well-being and enhancing day-to-day functionality. Enhanced Libido: Testosterone supplementation has been shown to improve sexual desire and response, which can be impacted by hormonal changes during menopause. Mood Stabilisation: Many women report improvements in mood and a reduction in irritability, anxiety, and depressive symptoms with testosterone supplementation. Increased Muscle Strength and Mass: Testosterone helps maintain muscle strength, tone, and bone health, which can be affected during menopause, promoting overall physical health and fitness. Cognitive Clarity and Mental Sharpness: Testosterone may help improve memory, focus, and mental clarity, often helping women feel more cognitively sharp and alert. Holistic Menopause Management: This appointment is a comprehensive part of managing your menopause symptoms, helping to ensure a balanced hormonal approach for both short-term relief and long-term health benefits. £255* * A blood test is required to assess your testosterone levels and confirm that treatment is appropriate.

Menopause and women’s health training covering HRT prescribing, complex cases, workplace awareness and evidence-based clinical education. Workplace Menopause Support for UK Employers Comprehensive Clinical & Training Solutions for the UK’s 2027 Menopause Action Plan Legislation From Spring 2027, the UK Employment Rights Act 2025 will require every organisation with 250 or more employees to publish a Menopause Action Plan. Voluntary reporting begins in April 2026. The question facing your organisation is no longer whether to act, it is whether you intend to lead. Menopause affects one in three employees at any given time. When symptoms go unrecognised and unsupported, the impact is measurable across your business: Reduced productivity Increased sickness absence Loss of senior female talent Rising HR complexity Growing legal exposure The UK economy loses an estimated £1.5 billion annually due to women leaving the workforce because their menopause symptoms were not properly supported. Behind every statistic is an experienced employee your organisation could not afford to lose.

Discover trusted coil and IUD services at Bristol Menopause & Wellwoman Clinic. Your choice, your health, with professional support every step of the way. Osteoporosis Screening In Partnership with Bone Density Scan (DEXA) A bone density scan (also known as a DEXA or DXA scan) is a safe and painless test that measures the strength and density of your bones. It helps to identify if your bones are becoming thinner or weaker, which may put you at risk of osteoporosis or fractures. During the scan, a small amount of low-dose X-ray is used to measure the amount of calcium and minerals in your bones. The results are presented as a T-score and Z-score, which compare your bone strength to healthy young adults and to others of your own age and sex. A bone density scan is one of the most effective ways to detect osteoporosis early and reduce the risk of serious fractures later in life. £50 Book here Who may benefit from a bone density scan? A scan is especially useful for people with certain risk factors, including: Women over 50 or post-menopausal Young women with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency Surgical & medical menopause Family history of osteoporosis Low body weight (BMI under 19) Previous fractures Lack of weight-bearing exercise Smoking or high alcohol intake Long-term corticosteroid use (inhalers or tablets) History of breast Thyroid problems, rheumatoid arthritis, or Crohn’s disease Benefits of Bone Density Scanning ✔ Early detection – identifies low bone density before fractures occur. ✔ Quick & painless – the scan usually takes only 10–15 minutes. ✔ Instant results – you receive your T-score and Z-score straight away. ✔ Personalised advice – results can guide lifestyle changes, exercise, diet, and medical support if needed. ✔ Peace of mind – helps you understand your risk level and take proactive steps to protect your bone health. £50 Book here
