After getting nowhere with the NHS with decades of totally debilitating frequent heavy painful periods I paid to consult Miss Iyengar privately. She lacked empathy, seemed disinterested - disbelieving even, baulked at the gruesome details (if you can't describe your horrific periods to a female gynae consultant - who can you tell?!) and her only suggestion was to put me into surgical menopause which wasn't an option for me as was already suffering dreadfully with natural perimenopause and am very medication sensitive. £300 down the drain. I ignored her advice and consulted a top London gynae who listened, gave me a full hysterectomy and found fibroids in my womb and endometriosis my tubes, ovaries, spine, pelvis and bowel which he excised. I'm now on HRT and feel a million dollars. As a previous reviewer said, if you have endometriosis or even a suspicion of it, ask your GP to refer you to centres of excellence for it locally at Luton & Dunstable, Oxford Women's Centre or the Royal Free, or go privately to any of their consultants. Bucks Hospitals NHS Trust Gynae department is a shambles and Miss Iyengar as our only local private gynae is terrible - they know nothing of endometriosis and gaslight women who are suffering beyond anything they can possibly imagine. Shame on you. I will say Miss Iyengar's secretary is excellent though - how she can work for such a women I don't know - but thank you for always treating me with courtesy and respect. Oh and that Miss Iyengar is the local 'menopause specialist' for Bucks is a joke - she knows how you put you into menopause but not how to help you with it. Do yourself a favour and read up on https://www.balance-menopause.com/ and work with your GP or self refer to Newson Health and get proper advice.
