WORLD MENOPAUSE DAY 2025!
This year’s theme is one that is so close to my heart - the role of LIFESTYLE MEDICINE in Menopausal health.

😴 How can I get better sleep and WHY is it so important? Is it stress, is it low progesterone?
🤯 Why am I so tired and unable to focus or make decisions? Is it low estrogen, low testosterone, low Iron or even thyroid?
💩Why has my bowel gone ROGUE? Gas, bloating, constipation... WTH???
🚽AND of course one of my favourite topics - I'm looking at you bladder and v@gina 👀 - WHY, WHY, WHY am I now experiencing incontinence, prolapse, urgency and dryness...
