Today is International Menopause Day🌸

Theme 2025: The Power of Lifestyle Medicine in Menopausal Health

Menopause is not a disease — it’s a natural life stage.
But the changes it brings can affect every layer of wellbeing — from sleep and mood, to bones, heart health, and confidence.

A new international review published in Climacteric (Anekwe et al., 2025) highlights something truly empowering:
✨ Lifestyle medicine works.
The six pillars of lifestyle medicine form the foundation for thriving through menopause and beyond:

💪 Physical activity – strength and movement improve mood, sleep, heart and bone health.
🥗 Healthy eating – a Mediterranean-style diet rich in plants, fish, olive oil, and whole grains supports hormones, metabolism, and vitality.
🧘‍♀️ Mental wellbeing – mindfulness, connection, and self-care calm the stress response and reduce symptoms like hot flushes.
🚭 Avoiding risky substances – reducing alcohol and quitting smoking protect your heart, bones, and hormones.
🌙 Restorative sleep – deep, regular sleep lowers inflammation, supports memory, mood, and weight balance.
💞 Healthy relationships – connection and support improve quality of life and even lower chronic disease risk.

The research reminds us that small, daily choices matter — and that holistic, person-centred care helps women feel strong, balanced, and in control.

At the Innovative Pelvic Health Hub, we celebrate every woman navigating this transition with courage and curiosity.
Together, let’s turn menopause into a season of renewal and empowerment. 💜✨

Hi from Gill, Pelvic Health Physio and creator of the Innovative Pelvic Health Hub — an online community where women come together to learn, move well, and support each other through every stage of their Pelvic Health journey. 💜

This year, I’ve built this beautiful online space using a platform called SKOOL, and it’s been an absolute game-changer for community connection, creation, and learning.🌟

If you have knowledge, passion, or expertise — whether it’s your hobby, fitness, sport, art, health, business, trade or mindset — you can create your own thriving online group too. 🌏✨

🎥 I’ve made a short one-minute video explaining how SKOOL works and why I love it.

If you’d like to explore starting your own SKOOL community, here’s my referral link so you can try it out for free:

It's time to raise awareness about something rarely discussed: incontinence in teens and young adults.

Every young person deserves to feel confident and supported. With the right care, bladder and bowel symptoms can be managed, so they can focus on growing, learning and thriving.
A continence assessment can make all the difference. Let's talk about it🧡
