Menopause & Perimenopause Support in Huntingdon | Private GP Care

Private GP

28/08/2025 by Dr Antony Malloy

Introduction

Up to 80% of women experience at least one disruptive symptom during the menopause transition. It can be sudden, confusing and exhausting. At Mayfield Clinic we offer clear, personalised pathways for women from Huntingdon who want prompt, private menopause support and ongoing care from a named GP. We take time to listen, assess and build a treatment plan tailored to you.

What are perimenopause and menopause?

Perimenopause is the lead-up to menopause when hormone levels become unpredictable. Menopause itself is defined as 12 months without a period. Both stages can cause hot flashes, night sweats, irregular periods, mood changes, sleep disturbance and brain fog. Symptoms vary hugely between individuals — and that’s where personalised care matters.

Common symptoms we treat

Our private menopause consultations cover the full range of concerns: vasomotor symptoms (hot flushes, night sweats), menstrual changes, low mood or anxiety, reduced libido, urinary changes, sleep disruption, memory or concentration problems, and long-term health risks such as bone and cardiovascular changes.

What happens in a Mayfield menopause consultation?

When you book a Menopause GP consultation with us you'll get a structured assessment:

HRT and other treatment options

HRT can be highly effective for many symptoms. We discuss formulation, route (patch, gel, tablets), risks and benefits in plain terms. If HRT is not suitable, we explore alternatives: SSRIs/SNRIs for hot flushes and mood, topical vaginal treatments, or other symptom-directed therapies. All private prescriptions and their management are explained in line with best practice — see our private prescribing information here.

Practical lifestyle and health checks

Small changes often make a meaningful difference. We offer evidence-based advice on sleep hygiene, weight-bearing exercise for bone health, cardiovascular risk reduction, alcohol and caffeine, and strategies for managing night sweats. We also check bone risk and signpost DEXA scanning where appropriate.

“Rapid access and continuity with a named GP often makes the biggest difference — consistent review prevents small problems becoming larger ones.”

Continuity of care and Membership benefits

Mayfield Clinic emphasises continuity: many patients from Huntingdon choose to see the same named GP for ongoing reviews and medication adjustments. Our Membership options, including the Core Subscription, provide a set number of annual appointments and priority booking. Members can book directly via a dedicated phone line or WhatsApp for fast access.

How we work for Huntingdon patients

If you live in Huntingdon you’ll find our service straightforward and familiar. Although we serve Huntingdon patients, consultations and treatments take place at our Cambridge practice — a short, convenient trip from Huntingdon. You can learn more about our Huntingdon service area here and the Cambridge clinic location here.

Many Huntingdon patients tell us they value the clinical continuity and fast access they get through Mayfield: same-day or next-available appointments can often be arranged for new or urgent menopause concerns.
