Bleeding and HRT webinar
21st September
This educational webinar will allow Dr Louise Price and Dr Lindsey Thomas, two primary care menopause specialists, to discuss bleeding issues relating to HRT and provide an opportunity for PCWHF Members to ask the questions they are needing the answers for.
The recent rapid increase in use of HRT has led to many women presenting to primary care with unpredictable bleeding. This is causing concern to women, primary and secondary care clinicians in terms of increasing referral rates and the impact this is having on two week wait clinics.
