Menopause Nurse Consultations
You may not think you’re in need of treatment or ready for a “full” consultation with one of our doctors, but when it comes to healthy ageing everyone benefits from being well informed and prepared! If you want information about perimenopause and menopause that is personalised to your situation, then a nurse consultation is perfect for you.
Discuss your particular symptoms, issues and concerns about the menopausal transition. Find out what menopausal stage you’re in, and what this means for your current and future health and wellbeing. Our nurse can also discuss lifestyle modifications and the broad range of potential treatment options with you (in general terms), which may help you decide whether to see one of our doctors for a treatment plan, however be aware that nurses cannot currently prescribe medication.

Exercise Physiology around Menopause
Exercise Physiologists are university-trained allied health professionals who specialise in using movement as medicine.
During menopause, exercise is not simply about “staying active.” When prescribed correctly it can help to:
- Improve cardiovascular health and reduce long-term heart disease risk
- Support bone density and reduce osteoporosis risk
- Maintain and build muscle mass to counter age-related muscle loss
- Improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic health
- Reduce fatigue and improve energy levels
- Support mood and nervous system regulation
- Improve pelvic floor function and continence
- Help manage body composition changes that often occur during menopause
In most cases no Medicare rebate is applicable, unless you have a Chronic Condition Management Plan from a GP.
