174 - World Menopause Day Special with Dr Louise Newson

The Dr Louise Newson Podcast - Ein Podcast von Dr Louise Newson - Dienstags

On World Menopause Day, Dr Louise Newson has recorded this special edition of her podcast on her own. She describes her medical career to date and her reasons for doing what she is doing. She discusses her interest as an undergraduate and postgraduate and also talks about her lack of menopause training during this time. Louise has a medical degree and also a degree in pathology which is even more relevant when thinking about the menopause as a systemic condition in which the low hormones, especially estradiol, affect all the cells and organs in the body. During this podcast she talks openly about her reasons for setting up a private menopause clinic and how the clinic has enabled her to finance the free balance menopause app and also the free Confidence in the Menopause education programme for healthcare professionals. She clearly states this is the beginning of her journey and she has much more work to do. It will be very interesting to watch and see how the next year unfolds for menopausal women. Her three take-home tips are Work as a team - communicate with others and share your knowledge and experience Ensure information you receive is evidence based - there is plenty of really good quality information both on the free balance app and the balance-menopause.com website Be positive – working together to make a change will enable women to have better future health
