Rated five-star on Google and offering unmatched expertise the Menopause Clinic is the leading option for anyone in the Manchester region seeking a menopause clinic.
We are local – based in Bury and so within easy reach of any area of Manchester, by road or public transport. We provide tailored bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and we are empathetic. Our sole focus is on helping women in menopause and earlier perimenopause.
Other clinics in the north west may provide HRT, and there is even a move promoting over-the-counter help. Instead, we listen to you as an individual and provide BHRT, these the hormones that the body accepts far more readily. They have the greatest impact in helping make menopause manageable.
At the Menopause Clinic in Bury, the hormone package is prescribed by Deborah Vines, a Manchester local and trained expert in these treatments.
For this bespoke treatment, you need only visit the clinic once per year – and given we are in relation to Manchester that is clearly not a huge difficulty.
Our full process for matching you with the BHRT treatments that can have a profound impact on your life is described below.
Suitability for Menopause Hormone Treatments in Manchester
Those experiencing menopause or perimenopause are in most cases suitable for our treatment.
There is no need to wait for suffering to worsen, as soon as anyone experiences what they believe to be the first symptoms it can be worth having an assessment. Why wait to feel you are suffering more when carefully prescribed BHRT treatments could do so much to stop the menopause ever having the impact it otherwise might.
Equally, many clients we see in Manchester have gone through menopause for a period of time – it is not too late to start as the hormones will still do so much to reduce the impact.
The impact of hormone depletion can be profound – there can be memory loss, loss of libido, headaches and many more negative symptoms.
The Hormones We Provide in BHRT Treatment
Our prescribed hormones are based on ‘Diosgenin’ a natural substance made from natural plant oestrogen.
We help to rectify any reduction in oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone. By the age of 40, Oestrogen levels can be almost entirely depleted, while progesterone can also be very low and testosterone at around half its level of earlier life.
The hormones, delivered as creams, lozenges and capsules, are carefully balanced to your specific needs.
After all, everyone who sees us is an individual – you cannot group clients together based on age or other criteria as everyone experiences their own menopause.
This is why the move to make over-the-counter treatments, without any analysis is perhaps a worry – these will not be tailored to anyone as an individual, and so the hormone blend might not have the positive impact hoped for. They will be readily available in Manchester, but we believe expertise is to be valued.
Our Four-Step BHRT Treatment Process
The four stages to follow for your personalised Biochemical Hormone Replacement Therapy package are:
- Contact the Menopause Clinic to arrange a consultation with BHRT treatment specialist Deborah Vines.
- A consultation of around 45-minutes will be held, this will also look into your medical history. At this consultation, a blood sample will be taken and sent away for analysis to assess your current hormone levels. We are, of course, a short drive at most away from any area of Manchester.
- Test results are returned – often inside two days – and we would then call you to discuss the results and also outline our suggested treatment plan and prescription.
- The prescription will be sent to your local pharmacy, who will post you the medication or you can walk of course. Next day delivery is possible.
Six weeks later, we would phone you to discuss how you are feeling – in some rare cases we would then tweak the prescription a little to maximise beneficial impact.
A second prescription is then sent to the pharmacy, this covering the next four-month period.
At the six-month stage, a phone consultation is held with Deborah Vines, this is another chance to discuss how you are feeling and for us to assess the positive impact of the BHRT treatment.
Two more repeat prescriptions are then possible, these would last up to six months and so the whole process covers a year’s worth of treatment.
At this stage, the whole process would repeat as a face-to-face prescription must be held at least once a year.
