Erectile dysfunction is more common than people think.

And support from a partner makes a real difference.

If your partner is struggling with ED, here’s how you can help:
❤️ Keep it pressure-free
đź’¬ Talk outside the bedroom
🤝 Reassure them it’s not a “you” problem
🧠 Focus on intimacy not performance
đź©ş Encourage medical help if it continues

ED can be linked to:

• Stress
• Diabetes
• Heart disease
• Hormone changes

The good news?

It’s treatable.

Our doctors can help identify the cause and find solutions.

Did you know there are TWO ways to prevent HIV infection?

Many people don’t know the difference.

🛡 PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis)
A daily pill that reduces the risk of HIV before exposure.

🚨 PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis)
Emergency medication taken within 72 hours after possible exposure.

Both are powerful tools for prevention.

You may benefit from PrEP if:

• Your partner is HIV positive
• You want extra protection
• You have higher exposure risk

Our doctors provide confidential HIV prevention advice.

It happens more often than people think.

The morning-after pill can help prevent pregnancy after unprotected s*x or contraceptive failure.

⏰ Works best within 24 hours
⏰ Can work up to 72 hours

Important things to know:

• It does NOT cause abortion
• It is safe for most women
• The sooner you take it the better it works IT DOES NOT PROTECT YOU FROM HIV!

Don’t panic. Just act quickly.

Our doctors can guide you confidentially.

✨ Iron Deficiency: More Common Than You Think ✨

Iron deficiency can have a significant impact on your energy levels, daily functioning, and overall wellbeing — and many people don’t realise they’re affected.

With a simple blood test, we are able to determine whether iron deficiency is present and assess the severity, allowing for appropriate medical management.

Common symptoms may include: • Persistent fatigue
• Weakness or dizziness
• Shortness of breath
• Reduced concentration

For some patients, an iron infusion may be recommended as a safe and effective way to restore iron levels under medical supervision.

đź©ş Step 1: Medical Consultation
All care begins with a consultation, followed by blood tests and a personalised management plan based on your results.

đź“ž Contact us on 3117864 or 73 584 328 to find out more about iron deficiency assessment and treatment.

At The Village Surgery & Village Wellness Spa, your care is always doctor-led, evidence-based, and individualised.
