Menopause Clinic in Belfast
At Beechill Clinic, our Menopause Clinic provides practical, evidence-based support for women experiencing symptoms related to perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. Hormonal changes during this stage of life can affect many aspects of physical and emotional wellbeing, and our clinic is designed to provide clear guidance, personalised care, and effective treatment options.
The clinic is led by one of our GPs with a special interest in menopause care, offering supportive consultations in a comfortable and confidential setting. Many women experience symptoms such as hot flushes, sleep disturbance, mood changes, fatigue, brain fog, and genitourinary symptoms during this time. Our aim is to help you understand what is happening in your body and explore treatment options that suit your individual needs.
During your consultation, we take the time to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and overall health. You will receive a clear explanation of perimenopause and menopause, how menopause is diagnosed, and the treatment options available to help manage symptoms and support long-term health.
If appropriate, treatment options may include Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) or non-hormonal alternatives. Our doctors provide balanced information about the benefits and potential risks of each option so that you can make an informed decision about your care.
If you would like guidance and support through this stage of life, book your menopause consultation today.

Menopause Clinic – Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need tests before my appointment?
No. The initial consultation focuses on understanding your symptoms, medical history, and previous investigations. If testing may be helpful, it will be discussed afterwards.
Will I need lots of tests?
Not necessarily. Many patients benefit from limited or no additional testing. The approach is selective and clinically focused rather than exhaustive.
Are tests included in the consultation fee?
No. Testing costs are separate and depend on what is clinically appropriate. You will always have the opportunity to decide before proceeding.
Can you review tests I’ve already had?
Yes. Previous NHS or private investigations can be reviewed during your consultation. Extensive functional medicine test reviews may require additional time, with a separate review fee discussed in advance.
Does this replace NHS care?
No. The Functional Medicine Clinic works alongside NHS and private healthcare services. With your consent, relevant information can be shared with your GP.
What happens after the results appointment?
Functional medicine focuses on long-term health optimisation rather than quick fixes. Many patients benefit from follow-up appointments to review progress, implement changes gradually, and adjust their plan as needed. The number of follow-ups will always be tailored to your individual needs.
