Hormone Health 101: Pregnancy Edition🤰

Pregnancy hormones are no joke, they’re working overtime to support your body and baby. But they can also make you feel tired, emotional, or just not quite yourself.

Here’s what’s happening behind the scenes, and how to manage common symptoms naturally. 💗

✨ Pro tip: You don’t have to “push through it.” Support is always available from your GP, midwife, or local pharmacist.

🫁 If you’re short of breath, don’t ignore it.

COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) is the 4th leading cause of death worldwide, yet many live with it without knowing.¹

If you have:
– Persistent breathlessness
– Chronic cough or chest infections
– A history of smoking or exposure to pollutants

👉 It’s time to think COPD, and speak to a health professional.

We send a HUGE thanks, Glen Huntly!

Our Community Green Screen Wall is Taking Shape!

What an incredible day! A massive THANK YOU to everyone who came down to the Community Pharmacy Glen Huntly today to lend a hand and help paint our new Community Green Screen Wall!

Your enthusiasm and support was amazing, and it truly shows what we can achieve when we come together. It was fantastic to see so many community members eager to create this free resource.
The wall is officially green and now we're ready to see if it actually works. We'll be doing a final touch-up soon, but it's now open for anyone to use as a background for their videos, photos, or creative projects.
