What will you get?
✔ Check your symptoms against other recognised signs
✔ Learn why (at 45+) you may not need a blood test
✔ Walk in with the questions that get you real options
If your body and mind have quietly changed in your 40s but no one's giving you answers, this might be perimenopause. Symptoms can start years before periods stop — and they're often dismissed. This toolkit helps you recognise what's happening and get it taken seriously.

About


Hi! I’m Dr Sylvia, a UK-based GP specialising in women's and sexual health, committed to giving you clear, evidence‑based information so you can make confident decisions about your body. Through my AskAwayHealth platform and community, I support women around the world with calm, practical guidance on hormones, periods, fibroids, fertility, menopause, pregnancy and everyday health worries.

Thank you for making this video because I was having alot of anxiety about getting this exam. I was literally crying and my mom was telling me this is part of being a woman and we have to do these things as adults and she couldn't understand why I was acting the way I was acting. Like no one talked to me about it or tried helped me figure it out just gave me a paper with details and sent me on my way. I have one scheduled for today and this has helped calm my nerves.
