A new study out of the US is causing quite a stir. It's a observational study that examined more than 120K medical records is showing some interesting trends with possible reductions of up to 60% for cardiovascular disease, breast cancer and other conditions.
It was presented at the Menopause Society's conference as a poster presentation - which means it hasn't been peer reviewed yet.
We speak to the researchers behind the study to find out what they found and what it really means in practice as an observational study does not show causation. So what do we need to do next to see if the trends they've found are right.
Join us then to get the inside knowledge.

Clare Johnston's parents are in their 80's and were living in pain and her mother was no longer able to walk very far unassisted. Clare thought something has to be one and brought in an exercise expert who has literally transformed their lives. Her mother is now able to take long walks outside without a walking frame or cane and their lives have been transformed.
Clare joins us to talk about what they've done and why it matters.
Not to be missed!

Did you know that there were so many stages of menopause?

So, the MHrA has approved the Australian product Androfemme for the treatment of hyposexual desire disorder (HSDD) which is great - but that doesn’t unfortunately mean you’ll be able to get it today.
The press release from manufacturer says it will probably not be available until sometime in 2026 and then it will need to be approved by individual ICBs.
So, good news but not immediate access.
This makes the UK the 4th country in the world to issue a license for this testosterone product.
I hope that helps.
We finally have a new progestogen option available to give alongside oral or transdermal oestrogen. Dydrogesterone 10mg can now be prescribed to women in the UK as an alternative option to micronised progesterone (Utrogestan, Gepretix) or other progestins. Some women do not get on with ‘natural’ progesterone or they don’t want or have side effects with the Mirena coil. Dydrogesterone has so far only been available in combined HRT options (Femoston) and we are really excited that it has now launched as a standalone medication. Particularly when combined with transdermal oestrogen, it offers more flexibility regarding the oestrogen dose compared to the oral combined options(Femoston) and this also reduces blood clot risk.
