If your body feels unrecognisable, if you're exhausted and not sleeping, if you keep being told 'this is just menopause' and sent on your way — this is specialist support for menopause after cancer that fills the gap your medical team left behind.
I'm Sonya Lovell. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 47 and spent nearly six years fighting for my quality of life after treatment. The support I needed didn't exist. So I built it.
My consultations are for every woman who survived cancer and is now asking: why do I still feel this bad?
Menopause After Cancer
ABOUT SONYA
I lived this. That's why I do this work.
I'm not a doctor. I'm not a psychologist. What I am is a woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer at 47, experienced treatment-induced menopause, and spent nearly six years finding her way back to herself, largely without support.
I know what it feels like to be sent away with no answers. I know what it feels like to not recognise your own body. And I know how transformative it is when you finally have someone in your corner who understands the landscape, knows the evidence, and genuinely gives a damn.
I've spent 15 years in women's health, co-authored research on menopause depression published in the ANZ Journal of Psychiatry, and presented lived experience testimony at the Australian Senate Inquiry into Perimenopause and Menopause. MACS is the support I wish had existed for me, and for every woman in Australia navigating this without enough help.

From the women I've worked with.
“Speaking with Sonya has been nothing short of transformative. She brought a depth of understanding about hormone replacement therapy after cancer treatment that far exceeded what I received from the three doctors and specialists I had consulted prior. With Sonya in my pocket, I feel energised and confident to continue advocating for my own health.”
