Silvia Lite for NHS Primary Care
Structured menopause intake for NHS primary care
Support capacity, consistency and the Women's Health Strategy with a standardised pre-consultation assessment that gives clinicians organised information from the start.
Silvia Lite helps NHS teams prepare menopause consultations before the appointment begins. Patients complete a structured assessment covering symptoms and key health domains, allowing clinicians to begin consultations with organised patient-reported information.

The Challenge
Supporting menopause care in primary care
Menopause consultations in primary care often involve complex symptom histories, multiple health considerations and limited appointment time.
Clinicians frequently need to gather extensive patient history within a short consultation, making it difficult to consistently capture all relevant information.
Structured consultation preparation can help NHS teams:
Capture consistent patient information
Improve consultation efficiency
Support more structured menopause care
Information Capture
Structured information capture for menopause consultations
Silvia Lite enables patients to complete a structured menopause assessment before their consultation. The assessment can be completed digitally on any device, or administered over the phone by a member of the practice team for patients with barriers to technology access.
The assessment captures patient-reported information across key menopause health domains and organises the information for clinician review.

System Benefits
Benefits for NHS teams and systems
Capacity support
Structured consultation preparation can reduce the time spent gathering patient history during menopause consultations.
This helps clinicians focus appointment time on discussion and clinical decision-making.
More consistent menopause consultations
Standardised information capture helps ensure key menopause health domains are considered during consultations.
This can support more consistent documentation across services.
Supports right-first-time care pathways
Structured intake can help ensure relevant patient context is available at the start of the consultation.
This may reduce the need for follow-up appointments or repeated information gathering.
Alignment with national guidance
The assessment structure reflects domains from NICE NG23 menopause guidance and wider Women’s Health Strategy objectives.
Continuity
Continuity of patient context across consultations
In primary care, patients rarely see the same GP twice. That means every menopause follow-up risks starting from scratch. Between appointments, patients use Silvia Lite to track their symptoms, treatment and periods (where relevant) over time.
When the patient returns for a check-up or review, they share structured progress with whichever clinician they see - reducing time spent re-gathering history and supporting more focused follow-up consultations.
This supports patient self-management between visits and may reduce unnecessary follow-up appointments where progress can be shared efficiently.
