In this podcast, Dr Louise Newson talks to Leigh, a partner of one of her patients who vividly describes how worried he was when he saw the changes in&nbsp;his&nbsp;wife and had no idea what was going on. They discuss potential ways of improving education to men and partners. It is&nbsp;really important&nbsp;that partners are involved and understand potential symptoms. Partners can often have a pivotal role in diagnosing the perimenopause and menopause and can help seek the right advice and treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/menopause-library\/menopause-and-relationships-a-guide-for-partners-booklet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here to take a look at this booklet,<\/a> created by Dr Newson, which is a helpful\u00a0guide specially created for partners to help a loved one manage the\u00a0menopause<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leigh Goulding&#8217;s Three Take Home Tips for partners:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hold your tongue &#8211; any arguments you may be having may simply be due to perimenopaue and menopause.<\/li><li>Do your research and make sure to check the sources of whatever you read.<\/li><li>&#8220;Happy wife, happy life!&#8221;<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Louise Newson chats with a partner of one of her patients Lee Goulding<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6779,"template":"","subject":[42],"content-type":[17],"library-format":[14],"library-author":[],"class_list":["post-667","menopauselibrary","type-menopauselibrary","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","subject-relationships","content-type-podcast","library-format-listen"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/menopauselibrary\/667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/menopauselibrary"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/menopauselibrary"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6779"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=667"},{"taxonomy":"content-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-type?post=667"},{"taxonomy":"library-format","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/library-format?post=667"},{"taxonomy":"library-author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.balance-menopause.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/library-author?post=667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
