This week sees World Menopause Day, giving time to reflect on the progress being made in helping women through this period in their lives.
One of the leading experts Dr Louise Newson, regularly has visitors from all over the world to her clinic in Stratford Upon Avon.
She’s been talking about how far we’ve come but gives a note of caution that there is still a very long way to go:
“We have been working really hard to improve education and knowledge to as many people as possible. Awareness has grown, conversations have opened up and more women are recognising the important roles our hormones progesterone, estradiol and testosterone have for our health and wellbeing.
However, globally only around 5% of menopausal women are currently prescribed hormones so we still have a long way to go”.

It’s great to see the above recommendation and happy ending, but sadly it’s rare to hear of IVF Clinics with over 80 percent success rates like this one.
We first heard about the @crpclinic in the UK, after interviewing Louise Warneford who suffered an astonishing 18 miscarriages before finally having success with Professor Shehata.
It took only one attempt with his protocol for her to have her beautiful baby boy.
If you want to find out more she’s written a useful book called ‘Baby Dreams’ which you can buy on Amazon.

So why did Lily Collins have a baby through surrogacy?
Although there’s been no official response as to why the 35 year old star of the hit Netflix series ‘Emily In Paris’, has used a surrogate to have a baby, a clue comes in her 2017 memoir ‘Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me’,
Lily – the daughter of musician Phil Collins – candidly described how an eating disorder had a devastating effect on her reproductive system. She revealed she used to eat ‘every type of junk food possible’ and then force herself to vomit. She said it stopped her menstrual cycle adding: ‘I was terrified I had ruined my chances of having kids.’

Life happens when you choose to quit IVF says our reporter Emma Kemsley with a smile.
She’s feeling rejuvenated after moving to the Costa Brava, and spending her first Christmas in her new home.
In her latest blog she wonders if she would be feeling so positive had her #ivf worked?
No is her answer because she says she’d likely be in the UK and knackered from a busy back to school routine.
She and her husband James and cute dog Fletcher, made the brave decision to quit IVF in April 2022. In her words they “got off the fertility merry-go-round and regained their freedom, sanity and finances”.
In 2023, after researching several European cities, they found their dream renovation project and relocated to Spain.
They haven’t looked back since and are happy to be childless by choice.
