Women’s Health

As women, we experience ongoing changes not only with our monthly cycles but also through stages of menarche, fertility, pregnancy, postnatal recovery and menopause. We are in a constant state of change.

These beautiful changes in our bodies can sometimes result in imbalances and the onset of new symptoms which can be hard to manage. We are here to help you.

Are my experiences ‘normal’ ?

As woman, unfortunately we are stigmatized to not talk about our bodies, this leads to inaccurate perceptions of what is considered ‘normal’. Consequently, many woman and girls endure unnecessary discomfort in silence.

This may be due to previous incorrect advice that their symptoms are ‘in their heads’, feelings of shame about discussing their bodies or a lack of awareness that their symptoms are not ‘normal’ or that they are unnecessarily suffering.

Examples of such symptoms include:

Irregular or absent menstrual cycles
Irritability at different times of the monthly cycle
Painful periods
Digestive changes with the cycle
Post natal fatigue and mood changes
Abnormal vaginal discharge
Difficulty falling pregnant
Hot flushes, vaginal dryness and loss of libido
Hormones induced acne and excessive hair growth
Weight gain
Recurring UTI’s or vaginal infections

If you are experiencing symptoms and not able to find a space to feel heard and be thoroughly assessed, feel free to contact Dr Anjana and her team.
