Early menopause & women's fertility health
Menopause marks the end of a woman or person assigned female at birth’s ability to conceive. It typically occurs in their early 50s, but premature menopause can happen before age 40 and early menopause before age 45, often with unknown causes. Irregular periods, spotting, or changes in vaginal bleeding may indicate the onset of menopause.
Katherine provides extensive support for women’s health and fertility concerns, with a specialised focus on menopause. She starts by conducting a detailed initial consultation to assess the patient’s condition and may recommend further diagnostic tests or interdisciplinary treatments based on her evaluation.
Katherine pays close attention to detecting early symptoms of menopause and offers comprehensive care to manage them effectively. Her approach includes tailored interventions to address menopausal symptoms and collaborating with other healthcare professionals as needed.
Services provided include:
- Detection of early symptoms of menopause.
- Additional diagnostic tests and interdisciplinary treatments as required.
- Personalised interventions to address menopausal issues.
- Gynaecological care
- Sexual health evaluation and treatment
