April has been PMDD or Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder awareness month. It is a mood disorder that affects women in their luteal phase - or second half of their cycle going towards their period and usually clears when the period starts. It can be severe so definitely needs support!

As the temperature drops (and the rain falls), our immune systems face increased challenges from seasonal viruses and the physical toll of colder weather. To help you stay well, our team has compiled a few tips for the cooler months.
________________________________________
- The most effective defence against seasonal influenza is the flu vaccination.
- Focus on nutrient-dense foods that support natural defences – think fresh fruit and vegetables for Vitamin C.
- Hydration: It is easy to forget to drink water when it isn't hot, but staying hydrated is crucial for maintaining healthy mucous membranes, which act as a barrier against germs
- Aim for 7–9 hours of quality sleep. Sleep deprivation can significantly suppress immune function.
- Manage Stress: High cortisol levels from chronic stress can weaken the body's ability to fight off infections.
- Stay Active: While it’s tempting to hibernate, moderate exercise improves circulation and helps the immune system work more effectively.
- Hand Washing: Wash hands with soap and water for at least 30 seconds, especially after being in public spaces.

Hopefully, these tips will help keep you healthy over the coming months! Book in online for your annual flu vaccination.

✨ Meet the Team: Issy ✨

Isabel is one of our lovely Registered Nurses, bringing many years of RN experience to Sante Medical and Paddington Skin.

Her journey into healthcare began as a medical receptionist, inspiring her to study nursing at USC. Since then, she’s worked across general practice, integrative health, and occupational health—from Noosa to the Brisbane CBD.

Isabel is passionate about patient advocacy and delivering high-quality care, working closely with our doctors to support you and your family.

Outside of the clinic, she loves Pilates, beach days, good food, and a great book 📚

✨ Meet the Team – Dr Bec Ostrenski ✨

Dr Bec is passionate about women’s and children’s health, adolescent health, mental health, and general medicine, with a strong focus on prevention and helping her patients stay well for the long term.

Bec has a special love for caring for families of all shapes and sizes and has been a familiar face in North West Brisbane for many years.

When she’s not in the clinic, life is beautifully busy! Bec is a mum to three energetic kids (including 6-year-old twins!), a very enthusiastic (but self-confessed terrible) new piano player 🎹, and does her best to squeeze in exercise wherever she can.

Fun fact: she has questionable taste in TV and is more than happy watching old reruns on repeat… much to her partner’s dismay 😄

💛 Dr Bec is here to support you and your family at every stage of life.
