Menopause and HRT at Our PRIVATE CLINIC IN BOURNEMOUTH

Menopause and HRT at Our PRIVATE CLINIC IN BOURNEMOUTH

Menopause and perimenopause care is in particularly high demand in Bournemouth, where the population includes a significant proportion of women at or approaching menopausal age. NHS waiting times for specialist support remain lengthy, and a standard primary care appointment is rarely enough time to assess symptoms properly, explore the range of available treatments and start prescribing.

At our Bournemouth clinic, your doctor will take time to have a thorough conversation about your symptoms, medical history, and preferences before recommending treatment. Where HRT is appropriate, we can prescribe it and send it electronically at the same appointment.

HRT preparations available include oestrogen patches, gels and tablets, combined HRT for women with a uterus, and vaginal oestrogen for localised symptoms. Non-hormonal treatment options are also discussed where HRT is not preferred or where it is not clinically suitable.

Perimenopause commonly begins years before periods stop and causes symptoms including hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, disrupted sleep, anxiety and brain fog. These are treatable, and a private consultation in Bournemouth means you can start treatment promptly.

Follow-up appointments are available to review and adjust your treatment.

Hormonal Health and Thyroid Conditions IN BOURNEMOUTH

Hormonal Health and Thyroid Conditions IN BOURNEMOUTH

Hormonal imbalances and thyroid conditions are among the most commonly missed causes of symptoms that affect women’s daily lives. Without enough appointment time to take a thorough history and arrange blood tests, these conditions are often attributed to stress or lifestyle rather than properly investigated.

At our Bournemouth clinic, our doctors take a detailed approach to hormonal health, with blood tests available on the day of your consultation to assess hormone levels, thyroid function and related markers.

Thyroid conditions, including both underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) and overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), commonly present with symptoms including fatigue, weight changes, hair thinning, difficulty concentrating, mood changes and menstrual irregularities. A blood test at your Bournemouth appointment can help identify whether the thyroid is involved.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is another common hormonal condition presenting with irregular periods, acne, excess hair growth and weight changes. Our doctors will assess your symptoms and arrange relevant investigations at the same appointment.

If you need specialist input from an endocrinologist or gynaecologist, we can arrange referrals promptly from our Bournemouth clinic.

    Contraception, Period Problems and SEXUAL HEALTH BOURNEMOUTH

    Contraception, Period Problems and SEXUAL HEALTH BOURNEMOUTH

    Our Bournemouth clinic offers private consultations for women who need contraception advice, help with period-related problems, or a confidential sexual health review.

    Contraception methods discussed and prescribed at our Bournemouth clinic include:

    • Combined oral contraceptive pill and progestogen-only pill.
    • Contraceptive patch and vaginal ring.
    • Hormonal and copper intrauterine devices (coils).
    • Contraceptive implant and injectable contraception.
    • Emergency contraception.

    Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate method based on your health history and preferences, and issue a prescription at the same appointment where relevant.

    For period problems, our doctors assess heavy, painful or irregular periods, bleeding between periods and absence of periods. We can arrange blood tests on the day to identify underlying hormonal or other causes.

    STI testing and vaginal health consultations are also available. Testing is completely confidential, results are prompt, and we arrange treatment immediately where needed.

    Specialist gynaecologist referral is available from our Bournemouth clinic where further investigation is required.
