Feedback for Paula Briggs, Sexual and Reproductive Health Consultant
"I suffered for years with flushes, sweats and low moods. My GP only offered me antidepressants and told me nothing more could be done for the sweats. He said HRT would only delay the inevitable.
A friedn recommended Dr Briggs and I felt listened to for the first time. It was good to talk to another woman of a similar age who understood what I was experiencing.
She recognised that my symptoms might be related to the menopause. We tallked about treatment options and I am now on HRT.
My mood has lifted, I have more energy and feel like me again. Thak you so much for giving me my life back."
