Perimenopause / Menopause
We offer a comprehensive pelvic health assessment for any woman who is perimenopausal or menopausal. This can be useful for individuals who are experiencing symptoms now, or for those who would like to find out how to minimise the risk of symptoms in the future.
As well as checking your general health and wellbeing, we will ask you questions about your bladder and bowel health, the health of your vulva and vagina and whether you are having any discomfort or problems with sexual intercourse.
We will carry out a full examination and assessment of your posture, movement, core activity and an internal examination to assess your pelvic floor.
Advice and exercise will then be given, tailored to your needs to help improve any symptoms or difficulties you are experiencing.
We can also advise on how to minimise other complications of menopause such as sarcopenia (muscle wastage). osteopenia (brittle bones) and cardiac health.
We also have an extensive network of specialist women’s health services that we can signpost you to dependent on your needs.
