Evidence-Based Menopause Medicine · Toronto
Menopause Care, Done Properly
Menopause is not a single event — it is a complex physiological transition affecting multiple systems, often in ways that are under-recognized or undertreated. Our focus is not just symptom relief, but restoring function, protecting your long-term health, and helping you feel like yourself again.

Who This Is For
You Deserve More Than
"It's Just Menopause."
We see women across the full spectrum of midlife hormonal transition. Many patients come to us after years of being told their symptoms are normal, inevitable, or something to simply manage. We take those symptoms seriously — because changes that affect your daily function and quality of life are worth assessing, not dismissing.
You may benefit from an assessment if you…
Notice changes that are affecting your daily function or quality of life
Want a clear, medically grounded plan rather than trial-and-error care
Feel uncertain about what is “normal” versus what is treatable

Clinical Areas We Manage
Comprehensive Care at Every Stage of Transition
We assess and manage menopause across the full spectrum — from early transition to complex cases requiring individualized clinical planning.
Stage 01
Perimenopause
The hormonal transition phase before menopause, often marked by irregular cycles and emerging symptoms.
Stage 02
Natural Menopause
Confirmed after 12 months without a menstrual period; the most common entry point for care.
Stage 03
Early Menopause
Menopause occurring between ages 40–45, requiring careful assessment and longer-term planning.
Stage 04
Premature Menopause
Occurring before age 40. Carries distinct risks and requires individualized, evidence-based management.
Stage 05
Surgical Menopause
Following oophorectomy; typically abrupt onset requiring prompt and structured clinical response.
Specialist
Complex Cases
Elevated risk profiles, osteopenia, osteoporosis, and complex medical histories.
Symptom-Based Care
Our clinic focuses on addressing the symptoms that can arise during midlife and menopause, including:
Menopause-related symptoms
Night sweats and other sleep disturbances
Mood changes (such as irritability, anxiety, or depressive mood)
Painful intercourse
Low sexual desire (HSDD hypoactive sexual desire disorder)
Hot flashes, excessive sweating
Vaginal dryness, discomfort
Urine frequency, incontinence, recurrent urine infections.
Other individual or unique concerns
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms or have questions about menopause and midlife health, we are here to help with compassionate, evidence-based care.
What Happens When You Come In
The Goal Is Depth, Not Speed.
We run visits differently from a typical brief consultation. Here is what to expect at every stage.
STEP 01
Before You Arrive
You will complete a structured intake covering your medical and reproductive history, current symptoms, medications and prior treatments, and your personal priorities.
This means when you walk in, the visit can focus entirely on analysis and planning — not basic data collection.
INTAKE FORM COVERS
Medical & reproductive history
Current symptoms
Medications & prior treatments
Your priorities and concerns
STEP 02
During Your Visit
Comprehensive Review
Dr. Machat goes through your history in detail, identifies patterns, and clarifies contributing factors.
Clinical Decision-Making
Your symptoms are translated into a working diagnosis and appropriate options are discussed with you.
Targeted Examination
A physical exam is performed when clinically indicated — including a pelvic exam where relevant, always with clear explanation and your consent.
STEP 03
Your Treatment Plan
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Your plan is built around your specific profile. You will leave understanding exactly why each option is being considered, what to expect, and what the risks are.
PLAN MAY INCLUDE
Hormonal Therapies
Non-hormonal Pharmacologic Options
Evidence-Based Lifestyle Interventions
Targeted Therapies
Informed decision-making — not guesswork.
Follow-Up & Ongoing Care
We Stay With You
Through the Process.
Menopause management is longitudinal — it doesn't end after the first visit. We reassess regularly to track your response to treatment, adjust therapy based on real outcomes, and monitor safety and long-term risk over time.
You are not expected to figure anything out between appointments. We guide the process.
Regular reassessments to measure how your body is responding to the plan.
Therapy is adjusted based on outcomes — not left on autopilot.
Ongoing attention to safety, risk factors, and your evolving health profile.
