Redefining Midlife with Jo Clark

105. Having a Doctor in Your Corner with Dr Sian Hebron


Listen Later

Midlife certainly comes with a myriad of health complexities, meaning we can be left feeling stranded at times. In this episode, I interview Dr Sian Hebron, a general practitioner with over two decades of experience, mainly focusing on Menopause and Women's health. Dr Hebron is a member of the Australasian Menopause Society, which reflects her commitment to supporting women through all stages of midlife. This conversation is filled with knowledge and information as we cover topics such as:

  • Alcohol consumption, its health risks, and the need for support in dealing with lifestyle changes.

  • The significance of thorough GP consultations and adequate time and support for women.

  • Understanding Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM)

  • Private prescription costs, government support, and treatment options

  • Over medicalisation of Menopause

  • DHEA, HRT and more!

  • The episode is a comprehensive guide on how women can navigate midlife challenges with informed, compassionate healthcare.

    At the end of this episode, I also ask Dr Hebron specific listener questions. Please note, this is general advice only, because she hasn't sat down with each particular woman to get important background information.

    To get in contact with Sian you can email : [email protected] or find her on Instagram: @menopausedrsian. Dr Sian’s new clinic (from 2 October 2024) will be at ‘Alchemy in Motion’, 2 Lanyana Way, Noosa Heads.
