Hi, I’m Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD), a Pioneering Researcher into Lifestyle Solutions for Menopause & Women's Healthy Ageing.
For the past decade I have received thousands of emails from women. Most feel like they have tried ‘everything’ for their symptoms or weight gain, and nothing has worked long term. Many are also through menopause, and are confused why their symptoms have returned.
As a Women’s Healthy Ageing Educator, my passion is to help women and health professionals understand what is really going on at a cellular level – that it’s not just about hormonal decline. Every single organ is ageing and changing, and for many of us, inflammation accelarates during midlife.
I have put together a collection of Menopause & Post-Menopause Guides based on the most common questions I have received over the past decade. Everything below is free.
Menopause & Post-Menopause Symptom Guides

Weight Gain
Started putting on weight in midlife despite not changing anything? Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD) explains the five key factors driving menopause weight gain, including a condition called oestrogen dominance that keeps women in fat-storing mode.
Swollen Joints & Fluid Retention
Have your joints started to swell, or are you holding on to more fluid as you move through menopause? Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD) explains what is causing the swelling and some lifestyle changes that ease it.
Joint Pain
Are you struggling with aching joints, sore muscles, recurring injuries, plantar fasciitis or frozen shoulder? Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD) describes why these conditions are more frequent in midlife, and some lifestyle solutions that can help.
Tender Breasts
Your breast lymphatic vessels are ageing and breast tissue has a higher number of oestrogen receptors. Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD) explains what is causing the tenderness and some lifestyle changes that ease it.
Menopause is more than just hot flushes
As you reach midlife, have you noticed changes in your sleep, mood or energy? Do your joints ache? Has stubborn belly fat appeared or do you now struggle with digestion issues and bloating?
If you aren’t sure if your symptoms are related to menopause, or if you are actually in menopause, then start with my free Symptoms Quiz.

Your Menopause Questions Answered

Menopause usually starts in our mid-40s and this stage is known as peri-menopause. Periods start to fluctuate as reproductive hormones decline.
The average age of menopause globally is 51 – 52 years old.
Women are considered to be in post-menopause when they have not had a period for 12 consecutive months.
Research suggests the menopausal transition is strongly associated with weight gain, which in up to 70% of women is now a known symptom.
There are many factors impacting your weight gain in menopause, that are made worse in combination with your new hormonal environment and inflammation accumulating in your fat cells.
The free weight gain guide above explains the five key factors in detail.
Inflammation in the body makes our symptoms worse. The term ‘inflammaging’ refers to the chronic, low-grade inflammation that characterises ageing, and it compounds the hormonal changes already underway in midlife. I speak about Inflammageing in every guide above.
No matter whether you are on Menopause Hormonal Therapy (MHT) or not, lifestyle changes in menopause are essential.
Lifestyle changes help to rebalance your HPA-Thyroid Axis, which gets out of balance during menopause. In each free guide, I will share some important lifestyle changes with you.
