Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of One For The Road. This week I am joined by doctor and menopause specialist Rebecca Lewis, as we discuss the links between alcohol consumption and the exacerbation of the symptoms of menopause. Rebecca qualified from Guy’s Medical School and initially pursued a career in Anaesthetics gaining FRCA in 1996. She then changed specialty to General Practice (MRCGP 2000) having been interested in women’s health and gained DRCOG in 1998. During her time in General Practice, she became interested in menopause and by how dramatically it could affect individuals. She found this the most rewarding area of medicine to be involved in as once a woman is correctly diagnosed and treated with the right type and dose of HRT their life can be transformed and needless suffering stopped.  As a result, she is now passionate about improving education and knowledge about menopause, not only within medicine but in the workplace and society as a whole. Her aim is to make menopause a positive experience not hampered by symptoms so that women can be allowed to get on and enjoy healthy, active lives for many years ahead.
