Do I need blood tests before a consultation?+
Not necessarily. Your clinician will first review your symptoms and history. Testing may then be recommended when it is useful for investigation, treatment suitability or monitoring.
Can women and men use this service?+
Yes. The service is designed for adults with women’s, men’s and broader hormone-related concerns. The clinical pathway will differ according to your symptoms and circumstances.
Does an assessment guarantee hormone treatment?+
No. Treatment is recommended only when clinically appropriate. A clinician may instead advise further tests, a GP appointment, specialist referral, physical examination or another form of care.
Can I bring blood results I already have?+
Yes. Bring any recent laboratory results and relevant clinical letters. Your clinician will decide whether they provide enough information or whether anything should be repeated.
What happens after treatment begins?+
The review schedule depends on the treatment and your clinical needs. Follow-up may cover symptom response, side effects, relevant measurements and whether the plan remains suitable.
What if online care is not suitable?+
Your clinician will explain the safest next step, which may include your GP, a specialist, urgent care or a face-to-face examination.
