Menopause treatments in general practice: HealthCert GP Update, 2026

In this HealthCert GP Update, Dr Simone Gonzo guides you through hormonal and non-hormonal treatment options for menopause in general practice — providing a clear, practical overview tailored for busy GPs.

What you will learn

Menopause presentations are increasing in complexity and expectations from patients are higher than ever. From navigating hormone therapy risks and benefits, to managing vasomotor symptoms, mood, sleep disturbance, bone health and cardiometabolic risk, GPs are often the first (and ongoing) point of care.

In this HealthCert GP Update webinar, Dr Simone Gonzo guides you through:

• When and how to prescribe menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) safely
• Risk stratification and contraindications 
• Managing women who are unsuitable for hormones 
• Evidence-based non-hormonal treatment options
• Structuring menopause consultations in busy general practice
• Practical documentation and follow-up considerations
