Prior to the consultation, we'll send you a medical history and symptom chart questionnaire. This will help us understand your health needs and optimise our time together during the consultation.
During your initial consultation, we'll take the time to discuss your symptoms and explain their underlying causes. Our approach follows British Menopause Society and NICE guidelines and we'll present you with evidence-based options tailored to your individual needs. We can advise you on a range of treatments, including hormonal and non-hormonal options, alternative and complementary therapies, and lifestyle changes.
We'll also conduct a comprehensive lifestyle assessment, evaluating your nutrition, sleep, stress, physical activity, weight management, and mental health. We'll make sure to answer all your questions and provide you with the guidance and information you need to make informed decisions about your care.
Together, we'll create a personalised treatment plan based on your unique needs. We may prescribe HRT or non-hormonal treatments, depending on what is appropriate for you.
If necessary, we may also recommend additional investigations or assessments with other healthcare professionals, with your agreement, particularly for complex cases.
Following the initial consultation, we'll recommend an ongoing care package that may involve continuing with us or with your GP, as you prefer. Our goal is to provide you with the support you need for as long as you need it.

Very caring and thorough. Carys was particularly kind as my problem was sleep related and not entirely a menopausal problem since I’m well past that.
Dr Carys Sonnenberg is a highly experienced and knowledgeable Doctor in women’s health and she uses a holistic approach. Following consultation, she communicates with the GP , passing on to them her expert knowledge and guidance, along with a recommended plan of care for the patient thereafter. In doing so, she is not only ensuring the best possible outcome for her patient but is educating the Gp’s as well .
Feedback: Dr Carys Sonnenberg, Rowena Health I recently had an online consultation with Dr Carys Sonnenberg regarding menopause, and I can honestly say it was one of the most empowering and enlightening medical experiences I’ve ever had. Dr Sonnenberg was absolutely brilliant — she listened attentively, validated my concerns, and explained the underlying reasons behind my symptoms with clarity and compassion. What truly stood out was her ability to connect the dots between what I was experiencing and the broader spectrum of menopausal symptoms. She helped me realise that many issues I had previously chalked up to “just getting older” were in fact part of this natural transition. That insight alone was invaluable. Her advice and guidance were thorough, thoughtful, and worth every single penny. The follow-up letter arrived promptly and included excellent reference sites that I’m genuinely looking forward to exploring. My prescription is already sorted, and I’ve got a full blood test booked this week — I feel informed, supported, and most importantly, back in control. Thank you, Dr Sonnenberg. You’re not just a clinician — you’re a mentor and advocate for women navigating this stage of life. I deeply appreciate your expertise and care x
I've had two appointments with Dr Carys and she is patient, very understanding and very knowledgable. She explained everything and makes you feel empowered to make your own decisions. Very positive and happy to have this clinic to help with the ride of peri menopause.
I'm delighted to be able to leave a review. i am a returning client . Following the resolution of the issues I faced last time. I have been able to chat with the doctor who I saw who has been able I feel re prioritize what I need to do next I have had some excellent advice and a wealth of information . I feel like I have been well supported and listened to .
I cannot recommend Rowena Health enough. I have been fortunate enough to be a patient there for several years now and the care and advice I have received has been amazing. Dr Sonnenberg is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring Doctor who always listens to all you say and involves you in all decisions. An amazing place for all Menopause care and advice.
Carys is the most gentle empathetic doctor. Very thorough and really listens. I feel heard, understood and confident in the plan we have decided.
I have now had two very helpful appointments; it is very reassuring to feel heard and discuss my symptoms at depth with Dr. Sonnenberg. I would highly recommend.
I had a really helpful and supportive consultation with Dr Chrystal. It is such a relief to be able to discuss how your treatment is going and ways forward. I really recommend investing in an appointment, I have felt much better after the tweaks to my HRT and no question is disregarded or felt to be silly. I have a complicated medical history with a surgical menopause after cancer, so I often feel "too much", but not here, it's welcomed and understood.
