Menopause without HRT...

Are we pathologising Womanhood?

Why do Menopause symptoms vary in different populations - if we, in the West, talk to Nomadic tribeswomen about menopause they laugh - they do not experience the myriad of issues we do... why, what have we done differently?

Join us on Monday 17th April to hear an expert panel discuss...

  • Can we navigate the Menopause without HRT?

  • If we're using HRT, how else can we optimally support ourselves?
  • If we've not reached the menopause, how can we prepare ourselves?

Bring your notepad and expect to go home with a health plan of achievable, low cost, low environmental impact solutions.

Speakers

  • Caroline Gaskin: Caroline has supported women through menopause in her holistic health practice for over 20 years and will help unravel questions about how we experience the menopause.
  • Tanya Moulding: Tanya has worked within the field of olfaction for over 15 years and will be looking at the therapeutic and psychological effects of five sacred oils in relation to the menopause.
  • Desiree Diaz: Desiree has studied the Wise Woman Tradition of healing using knowledge of the wisdom of plants and will look at how herbs and yoni steaming can support us before and during the menopause.

The discussion will be Chaired by Ali Masterman.

We are also pleased to introduce the award winning Fermenti - delicious treats to boost your microbiome, which you'll be able to try, along with herbal teas expertly blended especially for the occasion, while you delve into goody bags.

📰 What’s the latest in Women's Health News 📰 ⭕ What’s in a Name? ⭕ Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) has been renamed as Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). This change is important as it reclassifies the condition from a reproductive issue to a systemic endocrine and metabolic disorder. The removal of ‘cyst’ reflects an inaccuracy in terminology, as what this actually denotes is arrested ovarian follicles. The inclusion of ‘metabolic’ highlights that this condition can affect the whole body and should be treated as such. ⭕ Cancer Treatment Wins ⭕ The NHS is now offering a new targeted therapy (mirvetuximab soravtansine) for women and people living with ovarian cancer. The drug combines a ‘homing’ antibody with a cancer-killing medicine which attaches to ovarian cancer cells. This means that many living with ovarian cancer won’t have to suffer through chemotherapy. As patient Patricia Hill says, “it’s been incredibly positive… this is the first time that I’ve actually been able to get on with my life.” ⭕ English Caesarean Birth Rates ⭕ A recent report has highlighted that over 40% of births in England are now surgical, one of the highest rates in the world. This is an increase not reflected in other European countries or the USA. The report cites “demographic, health, social and health system changes in England”. However, this has not been accompanied by an improvement in outcomes for babies and maternal deaths have increased.

University of Oxford. ⭕ National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce ⭕ The independent investigation by Baroness Amos, which underpins the National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce, is due to release its final report with recommendations later this month. Following this, the Taskforce will publish a new national action plan for maternity care – watch this space.
