Jennifer is the clinical director and founder of Menopause Natural Solutions.

Jennifer’s interest in natural therapies started when she was diagnosed with PCOS in her early twenties and was told she may struggle to ever have children. Initially, she tried the oral contraceptive pill as prescribed by her doctor but this didn’t last long as she found the mood swings and other side effects unbearable but she still had to do something about the pain, the stabbing sensation in her ovaries could drop her to the ground. Next, she tried Naturopathy. Her pain stopped, her cycles regulated and her fertility returned. She never looked back. She left her career in television and retrained so that she could help other women like herself.
