Sneeze. Laugh. Jump.
…and then immediately cross your legs? 😅

If that sounds like you, keep reading👇

Let’s talk about something we don’t discuss enough: vaginal rejuvenation, and how MonaLisa Touch® laser treatment is changing lives.

MonaLisa Touch is a non-surgical, in-office laser treatment designed to relieve common gynecologic symptoms of menopause and hormonal changes by stimulating collagen production and restoring vaginal tissue health.

✨This treatment can help improve:

• Vaginal dryness, burning, or discomfort
• Painful in*******se
• Vaginal laxity
• Bladder leaks (yes… those sneeze-and-pee moments)

✔️ No surgery
✔️ No downtime
✔️ Typically a series of 3 quick office visits

This isn’t about aesthetics…
it’s about comfort, confidence, and quality of life. You deserve to feel good in your body again. 💛

☕ Spilling the tea on…
What’s actually “normal” with periods 🩸

Yes, periods can be uncomfortable — but some symptoms shouldn’t be brushed off as “just part of being a woman.”

💬 Common questions:
• Is heavy bleeding normal?
• Are clots okay?
• How much pain is too much pain?
• Should my cycle be the same every month?

The truth? What’s common isn’t always normal. And you deserve answers — not guesswork.

If something feels off, your body may be trying to tell you something. We’re here to help you understand what’s normal for you 💗

🥶 Slippery sidewalks and icy parking lots can be extra risky during pregnancy.

Today is a good day to remind our expecting patients to slow down, wear supportive shoes, and use extra caution when walking in winter weather.⚠️

💜 Your thyroid plays an important role in menstrual health, fertility, energy levels, and overall hormonal balance.

When it’s not functioning properly, symptoms may show up as changes in your cycle, persistent fatigue, hair thinning, or difficulty maintaining a healthy weight.

These symptoms are common—but they’re not something you have to ignore.

✨ If something doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts and start the conversation with your provider. Early awareness can make a big difference.
