Is It Time to Seek Help?
When to see a menopause doctor
Many women manage symptoms for months or years before seeking specialist support. You may benefit from seeing a menopause doctor if you are experiencing any of the following:
- hot flushes or night sweats
- sleep disruption or insomnia
- brain fog or difficulty concentrating
- mood changes or increased anxiety
- irregular or changing periods
- vaginal dryness or discomfort
- low libido
- weight changes
- questions or concerns about HRT
This is not a complete list. If symptoms are affecting your quality of life, work, or relationships, specialist support is available.
Face-to-Face or Online

- referrals for scans or specialist investigations where indicated
- lifestyle approaches to support symptom management
