224 Confidence in the Menopause: introducing our revamped course

October marks World Menopause Month, and on this week’s podcast, Dr Louise is joined by Newson Health colleague Dr Penny Ward to talk about the relaunch of our Confidence in the Menopause. Confidence in the Menopause is a CPD-accredited online course from Newson Health which is designed to increase your knowledge of, and confidence in, managing all aspects of the perimenopause and menopause. The course contains free and subscriber-only modules and is designed not only for those working in healthcare: it’s for everyone. We’ve included tailored information for non-healthcare professionals, whether you are a woman looking for information to help you make the right decisions and get the most out of their healthcare consultations, or a partner, friend or colleague who simply wants to know more. Dr Penny’s top three reasons for completing Confidence in the Menopause: It will give you an understanding what is inevitably going to happen to your own body or a loved one's body if you're a partner, friend or colleague. You will be able to appreciate the wide variety of symptoms that women can experience whilst undergoing hormonal changes. It’s an opportunity to listen to the presentations, particularly the one that is dispelling the myths about the menopause and HRT to understand exactly what's gone before us.
