In Chinese medicine we use a different language and terms when discussing a woman’s body.

Oestrogen is seen as a Yin substance. Yin is cooling, nourishing, and moisturising fluid and governs a time to build and nourish. This is why as we age and start to reduce oestrogen we get drier, hotter and we have less fluids.

Progesterone is seen as a Yang substance which is warming, active and moving. It’s a time for transformation and when your temperature rises and blood is built for the uterus.

Ovulation is the transformation time, it is when the body should shift from yin to yang energy and many women get stuck during this time. If yin or yang is insufficient ovulation can be delayed or absent which causes issues for women trying to get pregnant.

Menstruation is the movement of blood and qi time, if you have clots, brown blood, scanty or heavy bleed demonstrates stagnation in this movement.

All these things are observed and what I work with when seeing women who want to get pregnant in the clinic or maybe they are having issues transitioning through menopause.

If you want to know more, let’s chat and book in a time.

On the weekend I got to attend .m.event. The event was a beautiful evening that showcased so many women in different areas of business that are focusing on women’s health, especially around Menopause.

I met so many lovely women there and learnt about some other services (like my own) who are specifically focused on women’s health and education around menopause and hormones.

Did you know that you are not classified as post menopausal until you have had no period for a continuous 12 months.

So if your period turns up again after 11 months, you are still in peri menopause and day 1 starts from there.

This can be very frustrating for some women, especially when it turns up at a very inconvenient time.

If you need support during this time and are looking for natural solutions, book in a time with myself.

Trying to get pregnant in your 40’s can come with different challenges compared to trying in your 20’s.

As we get older, our egg and s***m quality decreases, our hormones can begin to fluctuate, and our endometrial lining might become thinner.

But there are things you can do to help you prepare for pregnancy in your 40’s.

Check out my blogs for some more information about your hormones and your 40’s.

Happy world menopause day!

Today is about a few things for me.

It’s about educating women about what symptoms are actually part of the menopausal journey (most women do not recognise many of the symptoms).

It’s about talking to women about the range of different options they currently have available to them to help get them through this transition.

It’s about spending time with women as we discuss the emotional and spiritual transition through menopause and how coming out the other end of this transition changes a woman (The Second Spring as known in Chinese medicine).

I have spent years working with women through the transition of menopause and am passionate in this area.

I have reattached my link to a blog post on my website about what are the top 50 symptoms you could be suffering due to your fluctuating hormones, as your ovaries begin to end their reproductive life.

If you think you are going through periods of menopause (yes it can start as early as your mid 30’s) and want to look at ways to help your body, mind and soul through this transitional time, book in a time with myself.

Going through menopause can be like a roller coaster ride. One day you feel fine, then the next you just don’t feel like yourself.

Maybe it’s the physical symptoms are the struggle like the hot flushes and insomnia, or is the emotional symptoms (anxiety, panic attacks, depression).

Any of these symptoms can impact your daily life that it can feel like a constant struggle.

You don’t have to live like this. There are natural ways we can solutions that can help alleviate your symptoms.

If this is you, come and see me.

I have spent years working with women going through menopause. This has been my passion.
