About
Perimenopause is a time of significant transition, and often challenge, in the lives of women and all those who have experienced menstrual cycles. All evidence now points to early, proactive and ongoing intervention as the best insurance policy for both minimisation of acute symptoms and long-term health outcomes (improved sleep & cognition and reduced all cause morbidity & mortality anyone!?). In this 5-part, 9 hour masterclass series, Rhiannon takes practitioners through every aspect of managing patients experiencing menopause, from the earliest changes through to long-term management considerations. Bonus material on migraines, adrenal, androgen and metabolic considerations. On completion of this course practitioners will be confident in: 🌟 Hormone pathology assessment: from markers of early changes, to perimenopause fluctuations, through to the post menopausal picture. 🌟 Identifying markers in general pathology indicative of long term risk for bone density issues. 🌟 Identifying clinical signs & symptoms that act as early indicators of pending change & long term risk. 🌟 Key clinical strategies for optimising hormones through perimenopause. 🌟 Supporting patients before they're even aware symptoms may be related to perimenopause changes. 🌟 Implementing the most effective interventions for symptom management including hot flushes, mood changes, insomnia, libido issues, migraines, heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), cognition challenges & genitourinary symptoms. 🌟 Clinical strategies for assessing & optimising metabolic, cardiovascular, bone, brain, thyroid and adrenal health specific to perimenopause and beyond. 🌟 Safety, contraindications & benefits of soy isoflavones prescription. 🌟 Understanding menopausal hormone therapy (MHT), including safety, indications, efficacy, forms and safe & effective co-prescription of herbal & nutritional medicines.
