Our pharmacist-led menopause prescribing service provides a structured assessment, personalised treatment plan and prescription support tailored to each individual. We consider symptoms, medical history and personal preferences to recommend HRT or non-hormonal alternatives. Consultations include discussion of risks and benefits, formulation options, dosing and monitoring. Prescriptions can be issued where appropriate and integrated with your GP care. We also arrange follow-up checks to review symptom control and side effects, adjusting treatment as needed. Our team works to make menopause care accessible, confidential and convenient for people across London and the Home Counties.

We support people through the full menopause journey, from perimenopause symptoms to postmenopausal management. Our pharmacists assess vasomotor symptoms, mood changes, sleep disturbance and genitourinary symptoms, recommending evidence-based treatments including systemic and local HRT, or non-hormonal options where appropriate. We explain potential side effects, cardiovascular and breast health considerations, and help you choose the right formulation and dose. If needed, we coordinate with your GP for shared care arrangements and investigations. Our focus is safe, informed prescribing and personalised monitoring to optimise symptom control and quality of life.

Before your consultation we ask for a concise medical history and symptom overview to make the appointment efficient and focused. This includes menstrual history, current symptoms, past medical problems, medications and family history relevant to hormone therapy. Preparing this information ensures we can safely assess eligibility for HRT and discuss alternatives quickly. The initial consultation typically lasts 20–30 minutes and covers informed consent, treatment options and follow-up plans. Where appropriate, we issue prescriptions and arrange monitoring with your GP. Our pre-appointment process helps us tailor care from the first contact.

We provide detailed information on different HRT formulations and delivery methods so you can choose what best fits your lifestyle and medical needs. Our pharmacists review cardiovascular and breast health risk factors, advise on preventative measures and discuss alternative treatments when HRT is unsuitable. Confidentiality is central to our service, and we support shared care with GPs where needed. We also offer written action plans and information resources to help you manage symptoms confidently between appointments.
