Our path to better health and lasting wellness
We believe menopause care is more than a prescription. It is a long-term approach to how you feel, sleep, work and live. With doctor-led care, regular reviews and personalised plans, we guide you every step of the way.
Menopause care from doctors who stay involved.
Too many women are told their symptoms are just part of getting older, or handed a prescription with no plan for what happens next. Arc HRT was set up to do it differently: proper consultations, treatment based on the evidence, and doctors who keep reviewing your care after the first prescription.

- Behind Arc HRT and Arc TRT
- 1 team
Years of leading hormone care in the UK.
Arc HRT is built on the experience of the team behind Arc TRT. Dr Chris Airey has treated thousands of patients across three of the UK’s leading testosterone clinics, writing the protocols and training the doctors who delivered them.
That work shaped how we look after you now: properly assessed, closely monitored and adjusted to the individual.
Every person is individual, with differences in receptors and response to therapy; therefore, this requires an individualised approach.
-
Grounded in NHS medicine
Dr Chris Airey and Dr Lauren Airey trained in the NHS and still practise Acute Medicine there. Chris went on to complete a postgraduate Diploma in Endocrinology; Lauren holds a first-class Master’s in Medical Science with a focus on nutrition.
-
Leading hormone care at UK clinics
Chris was Medical Director at CJA Balance and Optimale, then Medical Lead for Testosterone at Manual. At each he wrote the treatment protocols, built the patient pathways and trained the doctors who followed them.
-
Arc TRT: hormone care, done properly
Chris and Lauren went on to lead Arc TRT, a doctor-led clinic for men with testosterone deficiency, where every plan is built around the individual: their symptoms, their blood results and how they respond to treatment.
-
Arc HRT: the same care for menopause
Arc HRT brings that approach to perimenopause and menopause. Lauren leads menopause care, with time to talk, the full range of HRT explained, and testosterone assessed properly rather than left out.

Your first point of contact — appointments, prescriptions, blood tests, and keeping things moving between you and your doctor.
Care, expertise and individualised medicine.
Getting good menopause care in the UK is not always easy. GP appointments are short, waits can be long, and many online services prescribe from a questionnaire without a conversation. Arc HRT was created to fill that gap.
We are a doctor-led clinic with one simple goal: to help women across the UK understand what is happening to their bodies and feel like themselves again, through safe, evidence-led treatment.
-
A clearer path to treatment
A short health questionnaire, then a video consultation with a doctor who has read it. If treatment is right for you, you get a written plan and your prescription delivered, with a review at three months. Our prices are published, so you know what each step costs.

Led by experienced doctors
Every consultation is with a UK GMC-registered doctor. Dr Lauren Airey leads menopause care, Dr Chris Airey sets the clinical standards we work to, and Dr Simba Gwatsha brings over ten years of clinical experience across acute medicine, emergency care, haematology and oncology.

A responsible approach
HRT is not right for everyone, and some symptoms need investigating before anyone treats them. We are clear about who we can and cannot help, refer you on when that is the right thing to do, and adjust or stop treatment if it is not working.
Who we treat -
Built around you
Hormones are one part of how you feel. Sleep, nutrition, movement and stress all play a role, and your plan takes them into account. You are treated as an individual, not another patient on a standard protocol.
Our menopause diet guide
Know a man who is not himself lately?
Men's hormones change too. Low testosterone brings fatigue, low mood, poor sleep, lost drive and lost libido, and most men put it down to age or stress. Arc TRT is run by the same doctors as Arc HRT, with the same approach: proper testing, treatment built around the individual, and reviews that keep going.
If your partner, brother, friend or colleague is struggling, send him to Arc TRT. He will get the same care you do here.
- Testosterone deficiencyA home blood test, then a GMC-registered doctor reviews his levels and symptoms.
- Personalised TRTTreatment adjusted to his bloods and response, with ongoing monitoring.

How is Arc HRT related to Arc TRT?
They are sister clinics with the same doctors, clinical standards and approach. Arc TRT treats testosterone deficiency in men; Arc HRT looks after women through perimenopause and menopause. If you know a man who is struggling with his hormones, Arc TRT is the place to send him.
Are your doctors GMC-registered?
Yes. Every doctor you see is registered with the General Medical Council, and their GMC numbers are on their team profiles so you can check them on the medical register.
Do I need to visit you in Southampton?
No. Consultations are by video, prescriptions are delivered to your door and blood tests can be done at home or at a clinic near you. Our team is based in Southampton.
