Hot flushes
Hi, I'll be 60 in July and get a hot flush maybe once every few weeks. While they're not bad enough to soak the bed, they occasionally wake me up during the night.
Is there anything I can do to stop them waking me up in the night? (Maureen)

Urge incontinence
I have had urge incontinence for ages and none of the medications have done any good. Also the cervix exercises haven't helped either. I have an appointment with the gynaecology department in a couple of weeks, but I am not holding out much hope. In 2007 I had a stress related incontinence operation...

Post Hysterectomy
After suffering with andenomyosis and fibroids for years I had a hysterectomy last year, my uterus and cervix were removed. There really hasn’t been much after care information to be honest. I kept my ovaries and I’ve noticed I will get some pain around the time of my period. If I don’t have a uteru...

Painful intercourse
I have extreme pain during sex and smears. I cannot help but scream or shove my fist in my mouth. I have had this since my late 20s. There have been lots of tests and scans and nothing is seen. It is the bony bit that the speculum or penis touches, i assume my pelvic opening. Is there anything you c...

When having a smear test I have been told that I have the HPV virus present but no pre cancerous cells detected year on year. Can you please explain how this would be possible? (Julie)

Anorgasmia
This may be out of the scope for this clinic but I have anorgasmia which has become worse the older I’ve got. I don’t know who can help me with this or how to broach it with my GP-couples therapy is out of the question. What can be done to help me? (Rebekah)
