Medscape UK’s news editor argues that menopause isn’t over-medicalised and instead isn't taken seriously enough by the healthcare profession.
However, the news story and the study make references to menopause being over-medicalised, which I find unhelpful.
As a peri-menopausal woman myself, it took several appointments with my GP over 3-4 years, followed by a final demand when my symptoms began to significantly affect my quality of life, before I was prescribed medication. I have never felt satisfied with my menopause management. How could I with the barely 10 minutes and one symptom allowed me for each GP appointment? The GP has no time to give me evidence-based information about how I can manage my specific circumstances.
But there are many women who, no matter what amount of exercise, healthy food, and positive attitude towards ageing that they have, will still face significant challenges. Yes. We absolutely need a new framework for managing menopause where needed. Certainly, it would be great if we could all think of this process as a normal part of healthy ageing.
