Perimenopause & Menopause
The menopause transition is a complex and often challenging time for women, bringing a wide range of physical and emotional changes. With many years of experience supporting women through the perimenopause and beyond, Dr Colin Schauder provides personalised, evidence-based care tailored to you.
Menopause Care
Comprehensive consultations and personalised treatment plans are available for a range of menopausal concerns, including:
- Perimenopause and menopause symptom management
- Contraception during perimenopause
- Support for reduced libido
- Perimenopause and menopause migraine management
- Investigation of Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI)
- Genitourinary symptoms of menopause (GSM)
Your medical and gynaecological history will be carefully considered so that your treatment is appropriate for you. A follow-up appointment is usually arranged at three months to review how you are doing and how you are responding to treatment.
Coil Fitting, Removal & Replacement
With over a decade of experience working in family planning clinics, Dr Schauder has extensive experience fitting and removing coils.
Coil fitting is available for perimenopausal women as part of an HRT regimen, as well as for contraception and the management of heavy, prolonged, irregular or painful periods in pre-menopausal and perimenopausal women.
The following services are offered:
- Hormonal intrauterine system (IUS) fitting – Mirena and Kyleena
- Non-hormonal copper intrauterine device (IUD) fitting – Nova T 380
- Coil removal and replacement
- Coil thread check following fitting, or if you are unable to feel the threads
A female assistant/chaperone will be present throughout the procedure to help you feel comfortable, supported and respected.
