I get this question so often: often should I take my blood pressure? And when should I? Those patients then use home monitoring systems to take the Bp. So in this video, I just want to help understand the Bp cuff and how to apply it properly.

Pcos or polycystic ovation syndrome

Most woman have heard of PCOS. They know that it involves the the ovaries. But what is it and why does it occur?

It is a hormonal issue where there tends to be more testosterone in a female where there supposed to be more oestrogen. Another contributing factor may be that if insulin in the system due to insulin resistance.

In some cases, a woman doesn’t make enough of the hormones needed to ovulate. When ovulation doesn’t happen, the ovaries can develop many small cysts. These cysts make hormones called androgens. Women with PCOS often have high levels of androgens. This can cause more problems with a woman’s menstrual cycle. And it can cause many of the symptoms of PCOS.
Treatment for PCOS is often done with medication. This can’t cure PCOS, but it helps reduce symptoms and prevent some health problems.

Common symptoms of PCOS include:
* irregular periods or no periods at all
* difficulty getting pregnant (because of irregular ovulation or failure to ovulate)
* excessive hair growth (hirsutism) – usually on the face, chest, back or buttocks
* weight gain
* thinning hair and hair loss from the head
* oily skin or acne

If you display any of the above or even have a suspicion speaks to your GP.

I was very happy to do a talk about prostrate and testicular cancer today. Glad to see corporate companies thinking about men’s health and supporting raising awareness during this month. Will share some info and content in the coming week.

"Are you ok? Are you sure? I am here if you need to talk or need someone to sit with you - we don't have to talk."

Very often, the importance of these simple sentences are not realised, and unfortunately too often, its realised too late. Your mental health should be a normal consideration for everyone and as parents and partners, it should be a normal consideration you have for others within your family. I say this because very often in some of our families, the importance and awareness around mental health is ridiculed or downplayed. There is nothing wrong with seeking help for any mental health issues, it should be considered as normal as seeking help for the flu.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, lost or numb, reach out to your support network around you or book some time with your GP. If you see someone around you, whether its friend or family that needs help, reach out to them.

Let's all be more mindful of each other and more mindful of our own mental health.
