I am so grateful to her !! I discovered her on you tube and she directioned me to a professional dr to her HRT I am reborn ! ❤❤ wish dr Louise truly the best in life
Appreciate the highlighting of testosterone as part of a triad of HRT as well as how women doctors “of a certain age” are more likely to understand the value of HRT for quality of life and disease prevention as those who experience first hand how important they are. I specifically sought out an older female doctor and it has made all the difference. This was after having more than one younger female doctor be utterly unhelpful in my menopause journey.
Taking into account my personal peri/menopause journey I think if much more training for NHS GPs was done, i think id be in a better place by now. 18 months since starting HRT and still not well, sadly my GP is less than confident, and another didn’t know how to check for estrogen absorption had to refer to local hospital for advice. I am progesterone intolerant and feeling very fed up about my treatment. Can’t afford to go private, if I could I most certainly would 100%. My mother had dementia, how frightening to realise I may not get testosterone. Thank you Dr Newson for fighting for us.
Thank you so much for your hard work. I must say, I had a positive experience with HRT and the NHS. Unfortunately that was not the case with a life threatening condition that my husband developed. Just getting referred took two weeks each time.... Out of desperation we went private but they could not do the sofisticated tests that were needed.... Back in NHS.... The frustration and sheer amount of not caring was defestating. They want to check the boxes, not sort a strange problem
Louise and Kate, fantastic 💛Knowledgeable, pioneering women supporting women, keep it going. I live in a deprived part of Glasgow, no one wants to know about HRT, not other women I know*, and not doctors in general. My GP is lovely and cooperative with my HRT needs to a point, but is there any interest in the future me's health? NHS seems to be fixated on lowest dose for shortest time and that's no good for menopause care, if you can get it at all. Doctors are intelligent people by definition, so why aren't they thinking ? WHY aren't they bothered the way Louise is, Kate is, or I am? 😊xx *Editing to add, I forgot to mention that Menopause Warriors is a volunteer group of women in Glasgow, who DO support other women, so if you're in the Glasgow area or on Facebook, they are very welcoming 💛xx
Male misogyny or female apathy? We should be fending for ourselves not waiting for men to fix us or take us seriously. Maybe we should begin by taking ourselves more seriously instead of blaming daddy for all the things we have not bothered to accomplish for ourselves. There are more women in Medicine than ever before and even more than men. So if we cannot help ourselves now we never will.
Great, educational conversation! So much needed worldwide 🌎!
Best wishes from Germany 🇩🇪

fantastic info, thank you ladies!
Louise, you are an angel 😇
Could you make a podcast about progesteron intolerance. Whether is there an alternative or stop hrt❤
I’d be happy to do any test for you. I’ve lost everything because of this.
Hi! Dr Louise. A question for you! I have been refused Testosterone at my Drs surgery. Can I buy it from you please! Please answer.
Yes you can.
