Private Menopause Clinic in London

Menopause consultations from £[X]. No GP referral needed.

See an experienced, GMC-registered private doctor about menopause or perimenopause at our Bournemouth clinic, at a time that suits you. Demand for menopause care in Bournemouth and across Dorset is high, and NHS specialist waiting times are significant. Many women find that a standard GP appointment is not enough to discuss symptoms thoroughly, weigh HRT options and begin treatment at the same visit. Our Bournemouth clinic offers the time your symptoms require. Same-day appointments are often available.

HRT Treatment Options at Our PRIVATE BOURNEMOUTH MENOPAUSE CLINIC

HRT Treatment Options at Our PRIVATE BOURNEMOUTH MENOPAUSE CLINIC

Hormone replacement therapy is the most effective treatment available for menopause symptoms. At our Bournemouth clinic, our doctors can prescribe the full range of preparations and will discuss the most appropriate option for your symptoms, health history and preferences.

HRT preparations available at our Bournemouth menopause clinic include:

Oestrogen-only HRT: for women who have had a hysterectomy. 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 with a separate progestogen.

Body-identical HRT: licensed preparations using hormones with the same molecular structure as those the body produces naturally. Widely discussed among women seeking menopause care in Bournemouth and available at our clinic.

Vaginal oestrogen: for vaginal dryness, discomfort and urinary symptoms. Can be used alongside systemic HRT or on its own.

Testosterone: considered where low libido is a significant symptom related to hormonal change.

Prescriptions are issued electronically and immediately at the same appointment. You can start HRT at your first Bournemouth consultation if clinically appropriate.

Perimenopause Symptoms and TREATMENT IN BOURNEMOUTH CLINIC

Perimenopause Symptoms and TREATMENT IN BOURNEMOUTH CLINIC

Perimenopause is the transition before menopause during which oestrogen levels begin to fall and fluctuate, causing symptoms that can significantly affect quality of life. It commonly begins in the early to mid forties, though it can start earlier, and often lasts several years.

In Bournemouth, many women experience perimenopause symptoms for a significant period before the cause is identified. Mood changes and anxiety are commonly misattributed to stress. People often put sleep disruption and fatigue down to lifestyle. Cognitive difficulties may go unexplored. A private consultation allows time for a thorough assessment.

Common perimenopause symptoms our Bournemouth doctors assess and treat include:

  • Hot flushes and night sweats.
  • Irregular, heavier or lighter periods.
  • Mood swings, anxiety and low mood.
  • Persistent fatigue and poor sleep.
  • Brain fog and concentration difficulties.
  • Low libido and vaginal dryness.
  • Joint and muscle pain.
  • Urinary urgency and recurrent infections.

You do not need to have stopped periods to seek help. Treatment with HRT or another appropriate option can begin during perimenopause, when symptoms are having a meaningful impact on daily life. A private consultation in Bournemouth means you can begin that process without waiting.

    What a Private Menopause Consultation IN BOURNEMOUTH COVERS

    What a Private Menopause Consultation IN BOURNEMOUTH COVERS

    A private menopause consultation at our Bournemouth clinic is structured to give your doctor the time needed to assess your symptoms properly and recommend the most appropriate treatment, without the time pressures that limit NHS care.

    Your doctor will take a thorough clinical and personal history, covering your current symptoms, when they began, and how they affect your daily life, work, and relationships. Medical history, family history, current medications and any previous experience with hormonal treatment are all discussed.

    Where blood tests would be useful, for example in younger women or where the diagnosis is not immediately clear, these can be arranged at the same appointment at our Bournemouth clinic.

    Your doctor will then clearly walk you through your treatment options. We cover HRT preparations, non-hormonal alternatives, and lifestyle measures before making a recommendation based on your individual circumstances. Where HRT is appropriate, a prescription is issued electronically at the same appointment.

    A follow-up appointment can be arranged to review your response and adjust dosing or preparation as needed. Ongoing prescribing and monitoring are available at our Bournemouth clinic as part of your continuing care.
