Also attending the seminar is Newson Health clinical director Dr Rebecca Lewis, Dr Newson is also set to appear on Icelandic television to discuss the menopause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Newson said: \u2018The perimenopause and menopause are life events that every woman will go through \u2013 with 47 million globally this year alone [1].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Menopause is a global issue, and that\u2019s why I am so excited to be presenting to fellow clinicians in Iceland about the menopause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Education for healthcare professionals on the recognition and management of menopause symptoms is crucial, as well as the impact of low hormones can have on future health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018I\u2019m also really honoured to be asked to appear on Icelandic TV, which is another great opportunity to spread awareness and open the conversation up around the menopause.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

balance <\/em><\/strong>is on a mission to make menopause support inclusive and accessible to all, and as part of this mission has translated a range of free information posters into Icelandic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The posters are designed to be downloaded, printed and shared in the workplace with colleagues, or even among your friends and family, and cover topics such as unexpected aches and pains, low mood, anxiety and depression, bone, heart and brain health, and genitourinary symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
