At our Menopause Matters event last year, 85% of the women said yes when asked if they ever felt dismissed by their doctors.
They wanted to be heard.
They wanted verbiage.
They wanted answers.

Tune in for how to speak to your doctor about perimenopause/perimenopause.

We explore what every parent, patient, and provider should know about protecting against HPV-related cancers, the myths that persist, and why vaccination isn’t just for teens.

Dr. Brown shares her expert insight, passion, and clarity on a topic that could truly save lives.

This guy owner Aaron Ware has my picture on the website which claims "made by women, for women." They were not made by women. They were made in a factory in China and cost him about 3-5 dollars each. They are dangerous products as they are made from PVCs, polymers and Phthalates which means they may be damaging to sensitive va**nal tissue and are also impossible to clean as they are very porous leading to infection. DO NOT ORDER. See Trustpilot reviews.

Have you ever had a workplace romance? Was it love or lust?

33% of employees involved in office romances believe it led to success in their careers.

5% of workers who had an office romance lost their job as a result.

8% of employees consider starting a new relationship with someone at work.

1 in 10 workers admitted that they once had an extramarital affair with a coworker.

It can be one of the most exhilarating experiences, hearts trump heads and love is the currency.

Would appreciate a follow! Now that's love! xx MM

Hello again!

That's what my patient said to her partner once her Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause was treated.

Many women go without treatment in part because they don't realize there is treatment or they think it's a natural part of aging.

And it is for many women but there is treatment.

Estrogen is the hormone regulator of every organ in the body. Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause or GSM is a condition associated with a decrease in hormone receptors of the urogential tract. The urogental tract consists of the urethra, bladder, va**na, v***a, cl****is.

The most prevalent urogenital symptoms are va**nal dryness, va**nal irritation and itching. The genitourinary syndrome of menopause includes vulvova**nal atrophy and the postmenopausal modifications of the lower urinary tract.

Leakage or urine may occur. Painful s*x and va**nal bleeding from fragile atrophic skin are common problems.

It may take longer to experience or**sm.

All of the above for my patient. When her GSM was treated with low dose localized estrogen cream, it started working within two weeks. Her dryness began to dissipate and after 2 months she no longer leaked urine with cough and sneeze. Or***ms were faster!

I have educated doctors and recommended low dose localized estrogen to many patients of their. This small change in their practice has led to big changes for women's daily and intimate lives.

I mean really, who wants to leak urine or have dryness with your partner, lover, spouse, friend with benefits?

I've had a few post menopausal patients this week describe what we call in the bladder biz, "Key in the Door Syndrome." Yes, that's what we call it when you return home with your groceries and try to put the key in the door and get urgency. You shiver and shake (ok that's not part of the syndrome but you know what I mean). Women laugh (which will also make them leak) when I tell them what they have.

This condition is frequently referred to as urinary urgency/frequency symptoms, alternatively known as urge incontinence. It manifests when the sensation to urinate arises, and as you reach home and insert the key into the lock, a sudden intense urge results in leakage or a strong sensation of an imminent leak.

And it's common at menopause and beyond.

But what can you do about Key in the Door?

1. Stop what you are doing and remain calm.
2. Do 10-15 quick Kegels- it will calm your bladder down.
3. Do 'The Knack' a robust and precisely timed contraction of the pelvic floor muscles. It entails the pelvic floor muscles contracting just before and during a rise in downward pressure on the pelvic floor.
4. Once you bring in the bundles, make an appointment to see your doctor and ask them for a prescription for low dose localized estrogen therapy. It will help with the urge and the leak. And if you have va**nal dryness/painful s*x and/or recurrent urinary tract infections, low dose localized estrogen in the form of a cream, ring or tablet will help with that too. Bonus!

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

All the best to you and your bladder!

During peri-menopause and post menopause, many of my female patients get recurrent urinary tract infections. They go to their GP and get the same treatment-antibiotics which they need. But it's not enough!!!

These women also need low dose localized estrogen therapy in the form of a cream, ring or tablet. This is to prevent urinary tract infections.

You see, at the peri and menopause, estrogen decreases in the urogenital tract (bladder, va**na, urethra) and is a set up for infection over and over again. Women over the age of 65 are at risk for sepsis and even death from a urinary tract infection!

So my message to you today?

If you get so much as one urinary tract infection during perimenopause or menopause, ask your doctor for a prescription for a low dose localized or topical estrogen to prevent more Urinary Tract Infections. A prescription for antibiotics is not enough.

Tell them I sent you.
