This week Dr Lucy Cox and Dr Helen Barnes from Red Whale's women's health team join Nik to discuss the recent Channel 4 documentary 'Davina McCall: Sex, Myths and the Menopause'. It's great to have the menopause being discussed on prime time TV, and it certainly gave us a lot to talk about as we tried to see the issues brought up from different angles. Was it fair to primary care?...
We've also got the usual look at the news headlines and the week in daytime TV.
