The latest science and treatments for menopause symptoms - Dr Beth Thomas - Middling Along

In this episode we catch up with Dr Beth Thomas - who works with me at Managing the Menopause as our clinical lead, is a GP, and a menopause specialist seeing private clients with Everything Menopause.

We are covering - only a little belatedly - the latest research and developments that were presented this summer at the British Menopause Society conference. So if you’d like to find out more about what an expert in menopause is excited about, listen on to hear about:

• Fezolinetant (Veozah) - and when we might expect to hear more about this new class of drug for vasomotor symptoms being available for those who can’t take HRT 

• Why rates of endometrial cancer have greatly increased over the last decade

• The ‘Rule of 20’ for addressing weight gain in menopause

• Some fascinating facts about our gut microbiome and why this is the next big thing

• Ethnic differences in menopause symptoms, onset, and access to care

• Female-specific risk factors for increased risk of cardiovascular disease

• How to deal with sleep disturbance - and why you should care about ‘WASO’

• And last, but by no means least, tune in to find out about ‘Beth’s Rule’ and why we might all want to Be More Beth!
