Menopause & perimenopause

Practical dietary and lifestyle strategies to reduce hot flushes, protect bone and muscle, and support sleep and mood during perimenopause and menopause.

Menopause marks the permanent end of menstrual cycles and is driven by a decline in estrogen; the transition (perimenopause) can last several years and commonly brings irregular bleeding, hot flushes, sleep disruption, mood changes and shifts in body composition. Our nutrition care targets symptom relief (dietary triggers for flushes, sleep hygiene, gut‑friendly eating) and long‑term health priorities such as bone density, heart health and preserving muscle mass through tailored protein and micronutrient strategies.

Based in Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, our Ausclin Dietitians ensure personalised care for your symptoms, lifestyle and changing health needs — in-clinic or via telehealth. We discuss the evidence and safety around phytoestrogens, soy and herbal products; provide nutrient checks (calcium, vitamin D, vitamin B12) and supplementation guidance where appropriate; screen for disordered eating or changes in your relationship with food; and support joyful, sustainable movement that fits your life.

Women in their 40s often experience a range of symptoms as they approach perimenopause or menopause.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome – Nutrition Support in Newcastle & Lake Macquarie

Personalised Support for PCOS

Take control of PCOS symptoms with evidence-based, non-judgemental nutrition and lifestyle strategies.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)PCOS is a common hormonal condition that can cause irregular or absent periods, ovulatory problems, elevated androgens (acne, excess hair growth) and features of insulin resistance. Nutrition is a cornerstone of management — improving carbohydrate quality, meal timing, and overall dietary pattern can help stabilise blood glucose, support ovulation and reduce metabolic risk. At Ausclin, we emphasise these evidence-based strategies to give our clients the best possible outcomes.

Our PCOS care at Ausclin, serving Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, includes non‑shaming, evidence‑based approaches to carbohydrate portioning and timing, anti‑inflammatory food strategies, safe supplement advice where indicated, and support to break cycles of dieting and weight cycling. We also help design sustainable physical activity plans and liaise with your medical team for a coordinated approach to fertility or metabolic concerns.
