Dr. Peter Mester is a doctor specialising in internal medicine. He also works for SeeMe-nopause. His advice to women entering perimenopause? Practise self-care to reduce menopausal symptoms or to prevent them from getting worse.
The best care? Self-care! Prevention should be your number one priority. I advise every woman to explore what steps can be taken before, during and after menopause to maintain good health.
As a specialist in internal medicine, Dr. Mester treats a wide range of patients with varying conditions, from mild to complex or serious medical problems. Throughout his professional career, his interest has shifted towards cancer cachexia, malnutrition, sarcopenia wasting disorders, and AIDS. Managing menopause is an area of medicine he is also interested in, which is why he joined the SeeMe-nopause team.
Dr. Mester: “Online platforms, such as SeeMe-nopause, have the power to revolutionise the world of healthcare, making it more efficient and effective. Medical questionnaires and regular feedback loops enable me to provide patients with medical support in a fast and practical way. This approach alleviates some of the pressure that traditional healthcare organisations are under.”
I must rely on my medical knowledge more than ever as there is no physical encounter with the patient. This offers new professional challenges and opportunities, which is exciting.
