In the podcast, Tina describes how Theramex addresses the particular health needs of women, the changing health concerns for women pre- and post-menopause, the value of DEXA scans, other preventative screenings and the increased importance of fitness, diet and exercise habits from the late 40s onwards. They also discuss the role of supplements and of HRT.

Tina says that Theramex works on many aspects that can improve the health care and lives of women - from fertility, contraception and menopause to osteoporosis and uterine fibroids. She highlights how Theramex colleagues work hard to make a positive difference to women's health.

"I love the people. I love the fact that even though we're a business, and we're there to make money for our investors, everyone has that passion and that drive in what we're doing to make a difference for women," says Tina.

Highlighting the health needs of women

"The key things that women need to know are that, first of all, I don't think that women should be afraid of ageing in their healthcare, but I think they need to be aware that different things happen to their body," shares Tina.

"You have a right to be listened to, because women know their own bodies. If there is a change, then you know, and you have that right to be taken seriously," adds Tina.
