Perimenopause, menopause and HRT support from Dr Dana, with a private, unhurried conversation, not a ten-minute slot.
Ireland's leading menopause clinics are concentrated in Dublin, leaving women across the Midlands travelling over an hour for proper advice and HRT. Athlone Medical offers the same standard of care locally, without the round trip.
Dr Dana takes the time to talk through your symptoms properly, whatever stage you're at, from early perimenopause through to established menopause, with HRT prescribing and ongoing review as part of your care.
Select what applies. This is not a diagnosis, many symptoms overlap with other conditions, but it can help frame a useful conversation with Dr Dana.
Your answers stay on this page, nothing is recorded or sent anywhere.
Illustrative only. Many of these symptoms can have causes other than perimenopause or menopause. A consultation with Dr Dana is the way to get a proper answer.
Call ahead for a longer slot, or walk in during quieter hours.
Dr Dana talks through your symptoms, history and what matters most to you.
HRT or another approach agreed together, with bloods arranged if useful.
Follow-up to check how treatment is working and adjust as needed.
Everyone's needs are different. This is a starting point for your consultation, not a recommendation, the right option depends on your symptoms and health history.

| Gel | Applied to skin daily | Flexible dosing, quick to adjust |
| Tablets | Taken orally daily | Simple routine, not suited to everyone |
