Private Menopause Clinic in Birmingham
Menopause consultations from £[X]. No GP referral needed.
See an experienced, GMC-registered private doctor about menopause or perimenopause at our Birmingham clinic, without the wait. NHS menopause support across the West Midlands is under significant pressure, and many women find that a standard GP appointment is not long enough to discuss symptoms thoroughly, weigh treatment options and begin HRT at the same visit. Our Birmingham doctors take the time to get it right. Same-day appointments are often available, and we also offer telephone and video consultations.

HRT Treatment Options at Our BIRMINGHAM MENOPAUSE CLINIC
HRT Treatment Options at Our BIRMINGHAM MENOPAUSE CLINIC
Hormone replacement therapy is the most effective treatment for menopause symptoms and works by restoring the oestrogen the body is no longer producing in sufficient quantities. At our Birmingham clinic, our doctors can prescribe the full range of HRT preparations and will recommend the most appropriate option based on your symptoms, health history and preferences.
HRT preparations available at our Birmingham menopause clinic include:
Oestrogen-only HRT: prescribed for women who have had a hysterectomy and no longer have a uterus. Available as patches, gels, sprays and tablets.
Combined HRT (oestrogen and progestogen): for women who still have a uterus, combining oestrogen with progestogen to protect the womb lining. Available as patches, tablets and gel combined with a separate progestogen preparation.
Body-identical HRT: licensed preparations with the same molecular structure as naturally produced hormones, increasingly preferred by women and prescribers and available at our Birmingham clinic.
Vaginal oestrogen: a localised preparation for vaginal dryness, discomfort and urinary symptoms, which can be used alongside systemic HRT or on its own.
Testosterone: considered where low libido is a significant symptom related to hormonal change.
You can start HRT at your first Birmingham appointment.
Perimenopause Symptoms and TREATMENT IN BIRMINGHAM
Perimenopause Symptoms and TREATMENT IN BIRMINGHAM
Perimenopause is the transitional phase before menopause, during which oestrogen and progesterone levels begin to fluctuate and fall. It can begin in the early to mid forties, and sometimes earlier, and commonly lasts between four and eight years.
Many women in Birmingham experience perimenopause symptoms for months or years before the cause is identified. Mood changes, anxiety, poor sleep and fatigue are frequently attributed to stress. People may put brain fog and concentration difficulties down to other causes. This means perimenopause often goes untreated for considerable periods.
Perimenopause symptoms our Birmingham doctors regularly assess and treat include:
- Hot flushes and night sweats, including during the day and at night.
- Irregular periods, heavier or lighter bleeding.
- Mood swings, anxiety and low mood.
- Sleep disruption and persistent fatigue.
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating.
- Reduced libido and vaginal dryness.
- Joint pain and muscle aches.
- Urinary changes, including urgency and recurrent infections.
You don't need to wait until your period has stopped to seek help. Treatment can begin during perimenopause if symptoms are affecting your quality of life, and a private appointment in Birmingham means you can start that process without delay.
What a Private Menopause Consultation in BIRMINGHAM COVERS
What a Private Menopause Consultation in BIRMINGHAM COVERS
A private menopause consultation at our Birmingham clinic is structured to give your doctor the time to assess your symptoms properly and make a well-informed treatment recommendation, without the time constraints that make NHS menopause care so difficult to access effectively.
Your doctor will begin with a detailed clinical and personal history, covering your current symptoms, their severity and how long you have been experiencing them. Medical history, family history, current medications and any previous experience of hormonal treatment are all discussed.
Where blood tests are needed, for example to clarify hormone levels in younger women or where the diagnosis is not straightforward, these can be arranged at the same appointment.
Your doctor will then explain your treatment options clearly, covering HRT preparations, non-hormonal alternatives and lifestyle measures, and make a recommendation based on your individual circumstances. If HRT is appropriate, we issue a prescription electronically and immediately before you leave.
A follow-up appointment can be arranged to review your response to treatment, adjust dosing or preparation where needed and provide ongoing prescribing as part of your continuing menopause care.
All consultations at our Birmingham menopause clinic are completely confidential and conducted without judgement.
