Menopause is the final period in a woman's life (diagnosed retrospectively at 12 months afterwards), signifying the conclusion of fertility.
Perimenopause refers to the years leading up to the menopause, where the ovaries may not function as reliably. This phase is marked by hormonal fluctuations and menstrual irregularities, and is often accompanied by symptoms of varying severity.
This transitional time can occur for 4-8 years preceeding menopause.
With many other possible symptoms and physical changes, perimenopause and menopause affects every woman differently. For many, the symptoms can negatively impact daily life, health, and relationships.
It doesn't have to.
Our practice is dedicated to providing empathetic, personalised and evidence-based care to help improve your symptoms and empower you to live life.
Dr Jessie Huang
Special focus: Menopause, weight management, aesthetic medicine, hair loss.
I am Australian trained and have over 20 years of experience. My passion for women's health has always been strong but it became more personal a year after the birth of my first child, when I experienced five fractured ribs due to lactational osteoporosis. This deepened my commitment to addressing health issues that disproportionately affect women.
My mission is to help women feel like themselves again - healthy, strong and empowered.
I look forward to partnering with you to navigate this important stage of life.
