Each week, menopause Doctor Naomi Potter is joined by a new guest to explore the real-life impact of their hormonal changes. From hot flushes and anxiety, to brain fog and sleep problems, no topic is off limits.
Whether you’re wondering if HRT is right for you, want to restore your libido, or need a help managing menopause symptoms, this is a safe space for women to face their midlife insecurities. So settle in, embrace the hormones, and enjoy the laughs along the way.
Dr Naomi Potter breaks down everything women need to know about post-menopause – a stage that’s often misunderstood, under-discussed, and wrongly assumed to be symptom-free.
Naomi explains what’s normal, what’s not, and how to feel supported and informed once periods have stopped. She also tackles some of the biggest questions women ask in clinic about HRT, bone and heart health, urogenital symptoms, contraception, and knowing where you actually sit on the menopause timeline.
If post-menopause feels confusing, overwhelming, or like unexplored territory, this episode is here to bring clarity, reassurance and practical guidance.
