NICE menopause guidelines: what do they mean for you? | The Dr Louise Newson Podcast

This month marks eight years since the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) first-ever menopause guidelines were published in a bid to improve the consistency of support and information provided to women during the menopause.

The guidelines were developed for healthcare professionals, and for women themselves, and cover menopause diagnosis and management.

But what does this mean for you and the level of menopause care you should expect from healthcare professionals?

In this video to coincide with the anniversary, Dr Louise Newson and Newson Health Chief Clinical Officer and Operations Director Katy Jackson discuss:

How the NICE guidelines are used in practice at Newson Health
