Dr Inga has worked as a GP for the last 17 years, the last seven years based in Oxfordshire. Initially, she trained to become a gynaecologist, working in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the Northern General Hospital, Sheffield. It was during this time that her interest in Women’s Health developed.
 
During her time as the lead of a Well Woman Clinic in Devon, she has
trained and developed an understanding of well-being related to
menopause and weight loss. 
Having menopausal symptoms can really affect your life in a
detrimental way. Not enough women talk about their menopause
and there is still much uncertainty about what menopause
means and how it can be managed. 

There is an increasing understanding of how hormonal imbalance
causes accelerated ageing of our skin, and our thinking processes and
impairs our overall well-being. If one has experienced menopause
or has had a loved one going through it, they will know how there is
a rapid onset of ageing such as changes in the face and body, soon
after the menopause. It is not just about the hot flushes – it is about
overall ageing.
