The Newson Health Menopause Society is a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals and experts who are passionate about improving and understanding women’s hormone health.

Every other month, NHMS will host an online session to support your clinical practice and learning and development. In our Case Review sessions, you will hear from a Newson Health clinician, or a member of the advisory board, who will present and discuss a clinical case in detail and share their experience and opinion relating to the practical management of those more thought-provoking and interesting cases.

These sessions will be smaller to allow for interaction and discussion, attendees will be able to ask questions using the chat function. The professional introducing the case is not presenting themselves as an expert on that particular topic; their opinion will be based on clinical experience and their knowledge of the evidence. There will not be time for thorough discussion or review of related research as the purpose of the case reviews are to find answers to your ‘what would you do?’ questions.

Have a case of your own that you would like an opinion on? Fill in the case review template and submit to [email protected]

Having diabetes doesn’t mean that you can’t take hormone replacement therapy (HRT). In fact, it can be particularly beneficial as it reduces your risk of cardiovascular disease, as well as improving your wellbeing and energy, which can improve glycemic control.

Join us for our next webinar with Prof Vinod Patel to discuss the most common signs, appropriate treatment options and the top tips for managing diabetes during the menopause.

Progesterone is needed for women who still have a womb and to protect the lining of the womb from becoming thick.  It can be given in various ways, in some combination patches, tablets, capsules, vaginally, and from a hormone coil. But unfortunately, some women struggle with side effects from synthetic progestogens and also from progesterone and it can cause side effects such as mood changes, breast tenderness, bloating, skin changes and bleeding issues.

Join us for our next webinar where we will explore further about Progesterone Intolerance and how it links in with perimenopause and menopause. 

Within this webinar, Dr Rebecca Lewis will be joined by Miss Rebecca Gibbs, an experienced Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, specialising in HRT. Having also completed the advanced training skills module in Management of the Menopause at the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology she contributes an up-to-date knowledge on the safe prescription of HRT, including the use of testosterone therapy for reduced libido.

Together, they will discuss all areas relating to GSM along with a variety of different symptoms to look out for and how to treat them.
