Hormones are not guesswork. They’re VIP (very important physiology) and they deserve proper evaluation and your full attention!

LOW ESTROGEN may look like:
Dry, itchy or thinning skin
Vaginal dryness or discomfort
Reduced libido
Difficulty conceiving
Hot flushes or night sweats
Sleep disturbance
Bone loss over time

HIGH or UNOPPOSED ESTROGEN may look like:
Bloating and fluid retention
Breast swelling or tenderness
Mood changes or irritability
Heavy or painful periods
Irregular cycles
Increased risk of conditions like fibroids

Symptoms overlap so a proper evaluation is essential. Both low estrogen and unbalanced estrogen can make you feel completely unlike yourself.

So many women are walking around feeling: exhausted, bloated, anxious, flat, or in pain and don’t realise their hormones may be playing a role.

Let’s chat! I can help. So many options. Please don’t suffer in silence. 💕

Today we recognise the incredible generosity of donors 🙏🏼 and the amazing families they help to build.

We shine a spotlight on the ‘village’ 🔦the donors, parents, clinicians, and support networks who contribute to these deeply meaningful journeys.

We advocate for open conversation, clear communication and access for solo parents, for same-sex couples, for couples navigating infertility: not just today but everyday!

We hope for greater awareness, understanding and support for every path to parenthood, and every person who makes each path possible. 💕

It’s an honour to help patients through our donor programs. If you would like to learn more, please reach out, I would love to meet you 💕

This incredible time-lapse by filmmaker Anthony Cerniello had me reflecting on a woman’s health journey. So many chapters!

It evolves from first periods and early questions; contraception to fertility, pregnancy, and birth; then peri-menopause, menopause and the changes that come with time.

Each stage carries its own needs. Its own uncertainties. Its own challenges, strength and vulnerabilities.

To care for women through all of these stages and transitions and sometimes, to care for the next generation too, is one of the greatest honours of this role.

To walk this journey with patients and sometimes come full circle…the greatest privilege.

Helping women step into their power, at every age. 💕💕💕

It’s about understanding what drives better outcomes and making that the standard for everyone.

In addition to the above, another large population-based BMJ study found patients of female surgeons were less likely to die within 30 days of surgery.

Not dramatically. Not universally. But consistently enough to demand attention. So why?

Some research suggests differences in:
• adherence to clinical guidelines
• communication and patient monitoring
• attention to detail in perioperative care

But here’s the truth: we don’t fully know and we should be careful not to oversimplify.

Because this isn’t about one gender being “better.” It’s about understanding what drives better outcomes and making that the standard for everyone.

Skill matters. Preparation matters. Judgement matters.

Is it decision-making?
Attention to detail?
Communication?
Postoperative vigilance?

It’s time to ask the questions because every patient deserves care that is thoughtful, meticulous, and grounded in evidence.

It’s called Adenomyosis. This is BBC journalist Naga Munchetty ‘taking a stand’ 💪🏼 telling the Commons women and equalities committee she spent decades being failed, gaslit and ‘never taken seriously’ by doctors, despite suffering debilitatingly heavy periods, repeated vomiting and pain so severe she would faint.

Her answers finally came through private diagnosis.

April is adenomyosis awareness month. It’s a condition where the lining of the uterus grows into the muscle wall often leading to painful, heavy, and prolonged periods.

Do not suffer in silence. Do not let any doctor tell you it’s normal. Trust your initiation. Find a specialist who listens. Please reach out.

Heavy periods, pelvic pain and fatigue are NOT part of being a woman.
