How can I support her

Hi All,

I’ve come here to ask you all how I can help and support my partner. She’s clearly symptomatic of perimenopause at 42yrs and is stuck between a rock and a hard place. She’s struggling to get a GP appointment as every morning by the time she gets through on the phone all the appointments are gone so she used her private GP who agreed and said he’d send a prescription for HRT then called back to say he’d changed his mind as her records showed a slightly raised ALT level and she’d had HELLP during pregnancy so he wanted to refer her to a Gynaecologist…. He made the referral and then came the ‘claim denied’ notice from the healthcare because it was deemed to be pre existing and ‘routine’ which they do not cover. As a man who fought for 10yrs to get a hormonal deficiency diagnosed I have a small window into the world of hormonal issues and I’m just desperate to help and support her however I can and in whatever manner that is. It’s not about shoving her on medication. If she doesn’t want medication or it doesn’t work for her then I’m 100% behind that. I just want to know if there’s anything else I can do because I feel pretty helpless at the moment and I don’t like seeing her struggle.
