It came out of the blue.

How did you cope?

Look at you bring that back to menopause.

Welcome back to the Lower Down Experience podcast, where each week I bring you insightful and inspiring guests that will open your mind and empower your life.

That's how we keep it growing.

Something I hear all the time from women in their 40s and 50s is that they feel like their care is all over the place.

One appointment for hormones, another for bone health, another for intimate health, and none of it is really joined up.

That is exactly why I love BlackRock Health and what they have done in their Women's Health Centre.

It is a full 360 approach to midlife health, bringing together consultants, specialist nurses and allied health experts all in one place.

It's a small, focused team, which means your care feels personal and coordinated.

And what really stands out is how seamless it is.

You can have your consultations, diagnostics and even procedures organised in a really joined up way, sometimes on the same day.

And it's not just about treating symptoms.

They look at the full picture of your heart, breast, brain and bone health, as well as your overall wellbeing, with support from physio, nutrition and psychology too.

This is how women's healthcare should be.

Preventative, joined up and centred around you.

If you are in that stage of life and want to feel properly supported, it is definitely worth looking into the Women's Health Centre at Blackrock Health.
