Some Conversations Are Easier Face to Face
Perimenopause and menopause can change how you sleep, how you think, and how you feel in your own body. Hot flashes, night sweats, mood shifts and brain fog are common. Common doesn't mean you have to put up with them.
For many women in Prince Edward Island, finding someone who focuses on menopause care has meant long waits or long drives. NuHaven already offers virtual menopause care across PEI, and some people would still rather talk it through in person.
NuHaven Health is now offering in-person appointments at our menopause clinic in Charlottetown with Michelle Gaudet, NP, MSCP. Michelle is a nurse practitioner and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner who lives in PEI, so your care stays on the Island.
What Happens at a Menopause Appointment in Charlottetown
Your appointment is a focused visit about your hormone health. Michelle reviews your symptoms, your health history and what you'd like to feel different, then walks you through your options.
Depending on your health and preferences, those options may include menopausal hormone therapy (often called HRT), non-hormonal treatments, or a combination. Each option comes with a plain-language conversation about benefits and risks, so the decision you make is an informed one.
If you're still working out whether what you're feeling is perimenopause, our guide to perimenopause symptoms covers what's typical and when to seek care.
