A consultation can help identify appropriate investigations, screening and referrals based on symptoms, age, medical history and personal preferences.
Discuss symptoms without delay
Heavy or irregular periods, pelvic discomfort and menopausal symptoms can affect daily life and deserve an individual assessment.
General medicine can help review broader health concerns and advise whether specialist assessment is appropriate.
Preventive care that fits your needs
- Discuss cervical and breast screening according to age, history and applicable guidance.
- Review blood pressure, metabolic risks, bone health and vaccinations where appropriate.
- Ask about privacy, consent and a chaperone before an intimate examination.
Practical everyday guidance
- Eat varied meals with sources of iron, protein and calcium.
- Choose regular activity, including suitable strength and weight-bearing exercise.
- Prioritise sleep and seek support for persistent stress or low mood.
- Avoid tobacco and limit alcohol.
- Track menstrual changes or symptoms that affect daily activities.
- Discuss supplements and reproductive plans with a clinician rather than self-prescribing.
