There’s still time to drop off your donations of menstrual hygiene products for donation to the Nipissing Transition House! Dr. Kelly will be going shopping with this year’s cancellation fees and some donations this afternoon.
If you don’t have an appointment booked before Christmas, feel free to leave donations in the supplement locker or our mailbox.
Thank you to everyone who has donated already!

We’re all stocked up on protein powder! You’ll notice different packaging, our suppliers are committed to reducing plastic waste and are switching to bags rather than bottles. We still have a mix of stock, but eventually the bottles will be gone. By the way, quality whey protein powder, manufactured in Ontario makes a great stocking stuffer!

✨ Big win for women’s health 🌸
Today I’m so glad to share that the FDA is initiating the removal of the black-box warning on many hormone therapy products — including low-dose vaginal estrogen — for menopause/menopausal health. Yes, this is in the US, but Canada often follows suit.

Here’s why this change is so important, for anyone who cares about women's health.

🔹 Less fear, more fact-based care – The black-box warning (the strongest warning label the FDA uses) was originally based on 25 year-old studies of systemic hormone therapy in older post-menopausal women.

But vaginal estrogen — which acts locally (vagina/urinary tract) and has minimal systemic absorption — was lumped into the same category despite different risk profiles.

Removing the blanket warning allows conversations about vaginal estrogen to be more accurate and less fear-driven. This allows:

🔹 Improved access to relief – Conditions like vaginal dryness, painful in*******se and frequent urinary tract infections (medically speaking: Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause, or GSM) affect a huge number of women and can seriously impact quality of life.

Because of the scary warnings, many women avoided or delayed treatments that could help them. This change helps remove one barrier.

🔹 Better science, better language – The new stance from the FDA is built on updated research showing that low-dose/local vaginal estrogen doesn’t carry the same risks that earlier studies of systemic therapies suggested.

That means labels will reflect the real risk/benefit picture rather than outdated assumptions.

💬 What this means for you (or your loved ones):

If you’ve been ignoring or suffering from vaginal atrophy, urinary changes, painful s*x or other genitourinary symptoms of menopause because of fear — this could be a turning point.

It’s still super important to talk to your healthcare provider about your individual risks.

This doesn’t mean hormone therapy is risk-free, but for many women the benefit outweighs the risk — and having labels that reflect that improves our chances of getting the care we deserve.

This week we've seen a big uptick in cancellations and rescheduling due to illness. In an effort to prevent the spread of colds and flus, and to keep our staff healthy and able to see you, Dr. Kelly will be wearing a mask in all appointments for the next while.
Masks remain optional for patients, and we will have some available for your use in the clinic, if you like.
If you have any symptoms of a cold or flu, we kindly ask that you please switch to telemedicine, reschedule your appointment, or wear a mask during your visit.
We see many people, with many different health concerns every day, and we want to provide a safe and healthy environment for everyone.
Thank you for your assistance!

You may have seen the headlines in the past few weeks about a Consumer Reports article that found "high" levels of lead in a variety of protein powders. Is this a problem? Should we all ditch our protein powders? The summary:

-Consumer Reports (CR) used a threshold of 0.5 mcg/day as the limit of safe exposure, this is based on the California Prop 65 threshold for the safe exposure of inhaled lead. (Inhaled lead is more dangerous so the safe level is lower)
-the FDA uses the threshold of 2.2 (children)-8.8 (women of childbearing age) mcg/day for orally ingested lead, which contains a built in 10 fold safety factor.
-CR did 2-3 samples of a particular protein powder purchased within 2 months in New York state, so their sample sizes were definitely limited.
-The worse offenders they tested had between 6-7 mcg of lead per serving. Most of the products tested had less then this. These are all below the FDA limit.
-Companies that do independent testing of their products usually test every single lot several times, and tend to have much lower levels of lead than the CR article.
-the worst offenders were mostly plant-based proteins, which makes sense, as plants take up lead from the soil
So, what should you do?
-evaluate your own risks. Are you a small child, or planning to become pregnant soon? You might want to be extra cautious with your food intake
-know your sources. If protein powders are an important source of nutrition for you, be sure to buy from a company that does third party testing on it's products and releases that information to consumers, so you can ensure that the lead is below a limit you are comfortable with.
-keep your systems running smoothly. Focus on whole foods, fruits, vegetables, fibre, adequate protein, clean water. Get enough sleep and exercise. All of these things ensure that our bodies have more resilience to deal with any chemicals that they do encounter.

Every batch of our Just Clean Protein is third party tested, and contains less than 0.01 ppm (WELL below Health Canada's specification of

If you have been told that "it's just aging" or "your too young to be in perimenopause," give us a call. There are safe and effective solutions for you.
