Women using HRT won’t be reimbursed despite the fact that the medication was supposed to be made ‘free’.

Free HRT was supposed to come into effect on January 1st, but it has been delayed in a row between the Government and pharmacists. Today, a new date of the 1st of June was announced.

Joining Andrea to discuss this is Loretta Dignam, Founder & CEO of The Menopause Hub, Sheena Mitchell, Pharmacy Owner and Health Advocate at WonderCare.ie and Catherine O’Keeffe, Menopause Workplace Consultant.
