Hormones and urinary symptoms in women | Dr Louise Newson

Urinary symptoms like urgency, frequency, leaking or recurring UTIs can have a significant impact on quality of life, especially during perimenopause and menopause. In this live session, Dr Louise Newson will explain how hormonal changes affect the bladder, pelvic floor, and vaginal tissues, and why these symptoms are often hormone-related but rarely recognised as such. Dr Newson will guide you through the underlying causes of these symptoms, the role of oestrogen and how evidence-based treatments (including local hormone therapy) can make a real difference. She’ll also discuss how to approach these concerns with your healthcare provider and what options are available if symptoms persist. This session is ideal for anyone experiencing urinary changes or discomfort, as well as those supporting women through midlife health transitions. A short Q&A will follow at the end of the session to answer questions in the Live chat. #Hormones #UrinarySymptoms #DrLouiseNewson #Menopause #Perimenopause #BladderHealth #UTIs #Incontinence #VaginalHealth #WomenHealth #HormoneHealth
