Hello you lovely supporter of my petition to initiate change to GP appointments.

I woke up today to a further 750 supporters (yay!) so the message is getting out there and all shares of the petition help the cause. 

I have had some criticism of my goal as there are already some strides forward in the way that menopause is dealt with in our doctor's surgeries but in my professional experience, in many cases the information is not reaching those who need it most and GPs are still finding it difficult to offer what women need during that short appointment.

I love simple and of course lengthy booklets or on screen pop ups in the waiting room are useful but simple is what we need at those early research stages, so a simple 2 sided one page leaflet with symptoms, HRT facts and references to key resources with next steps, that fits in your pocket, handbag or purse is so useful.

This also allows the GP extra time to get to know the woman as an individual rather than a set of random symptoms.

Anyhoo ... that's my update

Thank you and please share the link to the petition (see below)

My husband would not want me to have continued to 'cope' without the right information and nobody should.
