Think hormone therapy for menopause is dangerous? Think again ☝️

New Australian research shows that for most women under 60, or within 10 years of menopause, menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) can be a safe and effective option, especially for relieving symptoms and protecting bone health.

It may also help improve some heart health markers when started early, but it’s not used to prevent heart disease.

The old studies from the early 2000s don’t reflect what we now know. Timing, type and personal health matter.

Speak with your doctor to find what’s right for you 💜

The first few weeks with a new baby can feel exciting and overwhelming. There’s a lot of advice and a lot of change.

It’s okay to take things one day at a time. Ask questions when you’re unsure, trust your instincts and remember that your baby needs closeness and comfort as they adjust to the world.

You’re learning together, that’s exactly how it should be 🤍

Thanks to .the.midwife for the tips!

Did you know periods can trigger a unique kind of migraine?

These menstrual migraines are linked to the natural drop in estrogen just before your cycle starts. They can hit harder, last longer and often come with nausea, fatigue, or light sensitivity. Aren’t cramps enough?! 🥴

If menstrual headaches are knocking you down once a cycle or every few cycles, it’s always worth talking to your doctor about ways to treat them 💜

Every woman will go through menopause, but most don’t realise just how many symptoms come with it.

Menopause is a natural stage of life, usually occurring in the early 50’s, when periods stop completely. In the years leading up to it (perimenopause) and those that follow (postmenopause), it’s common to experience a variety of changes and symptoms.

Yet many women begin this transition unaware of just how wide-ranging these symptoms can be. Here’s a list of the medically recognised menopause symptoms:

Hot flushes
Night sweats
Insomnia or difficulty sleeping
Daytime fatigue
Sleep disturbances
Mood swings
Irritability
Anxiety
Depression or low mood
Tearfulness or feeling more emotional
Loss of motivation
Loss of confidence
Memory problems
Poor concentration or brain fog
Vaginal dryness
Vaginal itching and/or irritation
Painful in*******se (dyspareunia)
Decreased libido (low sexual desire)
Urinary urgency
Urinary frequency
Urinary incontinence
Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Joint pain
Muscle aches
Back pain
Heart palpitations
Dizziness and light-headedness
Headaches and migraines
Dry skin
Thinning hair
Increased facial hair
Crawling, tingling or pins-and-needles sensations (paresthesias)
Irregular periods
Heavy or prolonged bleeding 

There’s a lot, but knowledge is power! By staying informed on what to expect and seeking support, there are many treatment options available. No woman should have to go through this stage feeling unsupported or without relief.
