If you don’t feel the same desire as before… it’s more than just your hormones.

It’s also about your lifestyle, your environment, and all of the body changes that come with perimenopause. If you are stressed from work, can’t sleep properly and feel like you’re losing your mind… no wonder you’re not feeling like having intimacy 🤷‍♀️

⬇️ Does this resonate with you?

When your OB-GYN is called for an inflight emergency… in perimenopause

no glasses. too much caffeine. not ideal.

Answered the call, did the thing, everyone was okay.
But it was a good reminder—most of what makes me “look like I know what I’m doing” is usually a team effort.
�The people who anticipate what you need, keep things organized, stay calm, and make the whole situation feel more controlled than it is.

On a plane, you don’t have that built in. And you feel it immediately.

Made me think about how much I rely on my nurses every single day.
�They’re the reason things run smoothly, the reason patients feel taken care of, and honestly, the reason physicians get to show up and do our jobs well.

Anyway… everyone was fine. I’m ordering backup glasses.

And appreciating my nurses a little extra this week.

Boric acid is one of our favorite over-the-counter products we recommend to patients... but too much of it is not the right strategy.
If you're experiencing vaginal odor or itching, it's best to rule out other causes before jumping into boric acid. And remember: it's for external use only, NOT oral!

Are you getting irregular bleeding while on progesterone or the estrogen patch?

As OBGYNs, we anticipate you may have some spotting during the first 90 days, but you should NOT have severe bleeding or cramping. If you have a history on that, don't hesitate to ask your provider to adjust your dosing!

Yes, micronized progesterone is an effective treatment for sleep issues during perimenopause... but what if it just doesn't work for you?

Before ruling it out, take a look at your prescribed progesterone: is it oral or vaginal? Because that matters more than you think. Dr. Kumar explains you why!

Most women tend to think a pap smear includes testing for any symptom you may have...

Here's the truth: there is additional testing that can be done for BV, yeast and more! Please do tell your OBGYN about your specific symptoms, so that there's nothing missing our radar ;)

Do you have any questions about the pap smear?

GLP-1s like Ozempic and Wegovy may help you lose weight… but they will also change your metabolism, which may lead to some symptoms like irregular bleeding or needing to change your dose.

However, this is not meant to scare you! Just make sure to share any symptoms with your OBGYN to adjust your prescription as needed. You don’t need to suffer through it 🧡
