Overview

What is menopause care at Alpha Clinic?

Menopause is often managed badly — either dismissed as inevitable or treated with a blanket prescription. Our approach starts with a proper symptom review and an assessment of your individual risk profile before any decision about hormone therapy is made.

Equally important is what comes after: bone density, cardiovascular risk and cholesterol all shift at menopause, and these are worth managing in the decade that follows rather than discovering later.

  • Structured symptom and risk assessment
  • Hormone therapy where clinically appropriate
  • Non-hormonal options for those who cannot take HRT
  • Bone density and fracture-risk review
  • Cardiovascular and cholesterol monitoring
  • Mood, sleep and libido addressed directly

What we offer

Menopause Care treatments

Symptom Management

Hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disruption, vaginal dryness and joint pain, addressed with hormonal or non-hormonal treatment as appropriate.

Bone Health

Fracture-risk assessment, vitamin D and calcium review, and referral for bone density scanning where indicated.

Long-Term Risk

Blood pressure, lipid profile and diabetes screening, because cardiovascular risk rises sharply in the years after menopause.

What to expect

A decision about HRT that is actually yours

We go through the benefits and the risks as they apply to your history — not the headline version. Some women are clear candidates, some are not, and many do well on non-hormonal treatment. You leave with the reasoning written down, and a review date.

  • Personal risk profile, not a generic leaflet
  • Non-hormonal alternatives discussed fully
  • Written summary of the reasoning
  • Scheduled review rather than an indefinite repeat

Questions

Frequently asked

Perimenopause commonly begins in the mid-forties and can last several years before periods stop. Symptoms often start well before the cycle changes, which is why they get missed.

For most healthy women starting within ten years of menopause, the benefits generally outweigh the risks. It is not suitable for everyone, particularly with a history of certain cancers, clots or liver disease, which is exactly what the assessment is for.

There are effective non-hormonal options for hot flushes, sleep and mood, along with local treatments for vaginal symptoms that carry very little systemic absorption.

Not everyone. We assess your fracture risk first and refer for a DEXA scan when that assessment justifies it.
