Prescribing and monitoring for hormonal, cycle and symptom management.
What is involved
Hormonal treatment, cycle management and symptom control
Ongoing management of the treatments that are not procedures — hormonal treatment, cycle regulation, symptom control — with the reviews that make them work. Most of these need adjusting, and a treatment prescribed without a follow-up is a treatment that gets abandoned rather than optimised.
What the appointment includes
Before you come
Offered for every examination, and yours whether or not you are asked. You may also bring someone of your own.
Without giving a reason. An examination that is not comfortable can be paused or abandoned.
The date your last period started, and roughly how your cycle has been running. It changes what we look for.
Whether we may leave a voicemail, send a text, or write to your GP. All three are your decision.
Checklist
What to bring
One is offered for every examination and you can have one whether or not you are asked. You can also bring someone of your own, and you can ask to stop at any point without giving a reason.
Appointments
Consultations are with a consultant gynaecologist and last up to forty-five minutes. A chaperone is available for any examination and you only have to ask.
