London Hormone Clinic

London Hormone Clinic At London Hormone Clinic we specialise in treating a wide range of hormonal conditions. Jan and Amalia have worked together for several years.

At LHC we have expertise in treating a wide range of hormonal conditions. We aim for hormonal optimization to restore women’s health and wellbeing. We firmly believe that women should not suffer in silence and strive to help our patients recover and achieve their full potential. They had in fact been at the same school (though not quite at the same time). Their passion for promoting bio-identical hormone therapy has inspired them to set up LHC, where they can combine their extensive knowledge with experience. LHC allows them to adopt an integrated approach to optimum health, greatly enhanced by their shared ideology and approach to patient care

Despite its many benefits, currently only around 8,000 of the 3 million women of menopausal age in the UK are prescribed testosterone as part of NHS hormone replacement therapy. And those that are, are given creams and gels that are designed to be used by men. Women can still access testosterone if their GP is willing to prescribe it, but current guidelines say this can only be done to treat severely reduced libido.

That’s because the growing body of evidence which shows the benefits of testosterone replacement for menopausal women hasn’t yet filtered down to NHS guidelines.

Private menopause and hormone clinics are prescribing testosterone for patients – both male and female – and seeing huge benefits. They do this based on both an evaluation of a patient’s symptoms, and comprehensive blood tests, which rule out other issues such as thyroid function and insulin resistance and give a clear measure of the amount of testosterone needed to replenish deficiencies and achieve optimal health.

And they do this not only to alleviate symptoms present today, but to maintain cardiovascular health, avoid musculoskeletal decline, and optimise metabolic efficiency – the key to managing insulin resistance. All of which are absolutely critical when it comes to maintaining long-term health.

What’s needed now is equality in access to testosterone replacement, so that all women and men who need it can access it.

As a highly experienced team of doctors, we're passionate about sharing our knowledge on hormones and health.

That's why we take the time to listen to our patients, to fully understand their symptoms and the impact they are having, and to explain both our diagnosis and treatment options.

We also take every opportunity to talk to wider audiences about the common hormonal conditions that may be affecting them. When an editor or journalist asks for information, we are always happy to respond.

We've recently featured on the BBC, in The Guardian, Stylist, Metro, Mail on Sunday, Independent and Harper's Bazaar amongst many others talking about weight loss medications, hrt, menopause, periods, pregnancy and endometriosis.

If you have a question or would like us to comment on any hormone-related subject, then please get in contact: www.londonhormoneclinic.com

Our most read journal of the year was about perimenopause diagnosis and treatment, and the fact that so many women in their forties self-diagnose perimenopause, or are told they are perimenopausal, when in fact they are not. Many of these women are in fact experiencing low progesterone, something that is rarely talked about and hugely misunderstood. To find out more about perimenopause and low progesterone and why it's important to recognise and treat them differently, head to our website, or contact us for more information.

Hair loss/thinning is part of the natural ageing process, as common as it is distressing.

It can, however, be treated. Firstly by working out whether insulin resistance is to blame. And, if it is, treating it through lifestyle changes and hormone replacement therapy.

Hair tonics can be prescribed and are a very effective treatment. Hair supplements have their place too as people with hair loss are often deficient in nutrients such as B vitamins and ferritin. These can be bought from high street chemists (you don’t need to buy expensive brands).

And then, there's diet. Hair is low down the pecking order when it comes to nutrients, so it's important to have a varied, balanced diet.

So many women in their forties believe - or are told - they're perimenopausal, when in actual fact, they're probably not. In all likelihood, what's happening is low progesterone, something that's rarely talked about and often misunderstood.

The hormone, progesterone, plays a vital role in the body,
improving energy and stamina, burning fat, normalising blood sugar, helping build bones and supporting thyroid function.
It’s a natural diuretic and antidepressant, so it’s easy to see why, when levels are low, women really don’t feel like themselves.

There are very few places women in their forties can go, to get an understanding of, and treatment for, hormone imbalance. Our clinic is one of them. We have an exceptional team of specialist doctors with years of experience in hormonal care. To find out what makes our clinic different, check out our website or get in touch.

When it comes to menopause, most GPs and hormone clinics look at oestrogen and progesterone levels, whilst some consider testosterone too, but in many cases, this isn’t enough. We go much further replacing thyroid hormones, Dhea for motivation, melatonin for sleep, and reversing the onset of early pre-diabetes, the driver for many long-term health problems.

We also make it a priority to understand each of our patient’s individual requirements and tailor their treatment plans accordingly. There is no one-size-fits-all approach here, just evidence-based medicine, combined with a personalised patient-focused approach, delivered with thought and compassion.

Perimenopause can be a difficult time and, because symptoms vary and there’s no clear path through it, it often leaves women with many questions. One of which is about contraception and whether they still need to use it.

A follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) test can help to provide answers as, even if a woman isn’t having regular periods, or any periods at all, she could still be ovulating.

This test is one many GPs will carry out, if asked. They usually do this for women aged 40-45 with menopausal symptoms and a change in their menstrual cycle and women under 40 when premature menopause is suspected.

Perimenopause is a normal hormonal life stage, but it’s often misunderstood, even by those in the medical profession. It may surprise you to hear that it’s not a straight road. A woman can be perimenopausal one day and then be pre-menopausal again.
There’s also a growing tide of misinformation online and no two women’s experience of this life stage will be the same. Given all of this, it's little wonder women are confused as to whether they are perimenopausal or not.

A follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) test (a simple test that many GPs will do) can be an indicator. That’s because levels of FSH start to rise in perimenopause in response to the ovaries producing less oestrogen.

But a test alone is not enough. The results need to be taken alongside a women’s symptoms, menstrual cycle and medical history.

The biggest study of its kind in the United States has found a connection between breast cancer cases and air pollution. The findings, from five large studies across America, reinforce the critical connection between the environment and women’s health, highlighting the need for stronger action and public health policy across the world.

In almost 30,000 cases, exposure to nitrogen dioxide was linked to increased risk of breast cancer. Nitrogen dioxide mainly comes from vehicles emissions and the burning of fossil fuels but can also come from indoor sources such as unvented gas stoves and heaters. Fine particulate matter (particles that are too small to be seen by the naked eye) were also linked to increased incidence. This type of pollution comes from vehicle emissions, power plants and burning fuel, as well as from dust, ash and sea spray. Ozone levels were also seen to have an impact on the presence of tumours.

“Why did my GP insist on changing my HRT? I feel good and have been on it for years.” It’s a question we’re being asked on an almost daily basis and unfortunately, we don’t have the answers.

What we do know is that GPs are over-stretched, there’s more demand for hormone replacement therapy than ever before and a distinct lack of training and support for front-line health workers when it comes to hormones. We also know that it can’t be for financial reasons, as HRT prescriptions are relatively low cost.

There’s another issue and it’s something we hear time and time again from patients – that they’re just not being listened to and that their symptoms are being ignored or misunderstood.

We know from our years of experience that listening and understanding should come before anything else, and that there can’t be a one-size-fits-all approach to HRT.

We’re often asked how GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro work and whether they’re safe. Here is a simple guide…

When we eat food, appetite receptors in the brain are triggered. These release hormones that make us feel full – one of which is GLP-1.

These medications mimic that hormone, making patients feel full when they eat very little, or nothing at all. They also slow the stomach emptying which decreases appetite, allowing people to make better food choices, lose weight and reverse insulin resistance.

As for whether they’re safe. Yes. They can be incredibly helpful for people with diabetes, heart disease and underlying insulin resistance. And those who are at high risk of developing those conditions. But they are being widely misused – taken for weight loss alone and without medical supervision. This is resulting in almost all of people (85% say recent studies) regaining the weight lost when they come off the drugs, and many suffering side effects, which can be serious.

At London Hormone Clinic, we medically prescribe these drugs, carefully and continually monitor patients when they’re on them and support them nutritionally and psychologically. Our approach is different, and it works.
