Closed petition Women of North Wales have the right to have a Menopause Services/Clinic in Ysbyty Gwynedd
Not everyone can afford to travel to Wrexham.
Not everyone can afford to pay privately to go to a Menopause clinic.
Not everyone has the time to go to Wrexham, maybe they care for children and family members etc.
Everyone should have the choice.
This should be on our doorstep in Ysbyty Gwynedd with more specialist services local to North Wales including regularly updates for GP’s, Gynaecologists, practitioners and employers supporting them on Menopause and the benefits of HRT.
More details
The health board expect women to travel to the nearest NHS menopause clinic in Wrexham, as they are cutting back the little support we have in Ysbyty Gwynedd, this is not acceptable and especially in the current financial crisis.
We need resource on our doorstep local to us; the health board do not meet the demands of women suffering the ordeal, misery, pain, and discomfort along with all the other symptoms of the Menopause and the impact on their family.
Welsh Government must invest more in menopause resources and services in Wales.
Women are struggling to stay in their employment, along with sometimes having caring responsibilities. Women leave work as they cannot cope with the some of the symptoms.
