Hearing “precancerous cells” can be frightening - but here’s the truth: It means we’ve found abnormal changes before they’ve turned into cancer. That’s good news.

It’s a sign to follow up, treat if needed, and keep watching. With regular check-ups, most precancerous changes can be managed.

First of all - breathe.

STIs are common and most are treatable.

You’re not alone.
Here’s your step-by-step:
Book a consult and request a proper test (don't just diagnose based on symptoms).
Pause intimacy until you know your status.
Be honest with your partner - we can help you find the words.
Treat and retest if needed.

You deserve respectful care and answers. No shame. Just support. 🌷

There’s no single food that “prevents cancer” - but your everyday choices do matter.

Start here:
🥗 Eat a rainbow of veggies
🍞 Choose whole grains over ultra-processed foods
🧃 Reduce sugary drinks and alcohol

This isn’t about guilt. It’s about nourishment, resilience and healing from the inside out.

Planning a holiday, event, or just needing a break from your period?

You can delay it safely, if done with medical guidance.

✔️ Combined contraceptive pill: consult me on "tricycling"
✔️ Progesterone only pill (non-contraceptive tablet, short-term use: needs a prescription and careful consideration
✔️ Consider the Mirena IUD (up to 34% of users have no periods)

⚠️ Please avoid TikTok hacks. Always consult a doctor first, especially if you have a medical history.

Let’s have an honest conversation: there is no such thing as the “perfect” v***a.

They come in all shapes, sizes, colours, and textures - and that’s completely normal. What matters most is knowing your normal.

Look out for:
Persistent itching or burning
Lumps or sores that don’t heal
Skin changes or discolouration

If anything feels off, you’re never overreacting by getting it checked. Knowledge is power. 🌷

Vulvar cancer is rare, but it matters.

It often starts with subtle symptoms:
🌷Ongoing itching or burning
🌷 Lumps, ulcers, or bleeding
🌷 Skin changes that don’t go away
Many women delay care because it feels awkward to talk about. But every body part is valid.

If something feels off, get checked. Early matters.
