What Every Woman Should Know About Breast Health 🩷

Understanding your breast health goes beyond awareness, it’s about knowing the facts, assessing your personal risk, and making informed choices for your wellbeing.

Here’s what every woman should know:
1️⃣ MHT (Menopause Hormone Therapy) can be safe, even with a family history of breast cancer.
2️⃣ Most breast cancer cases aren’t hereditary, but linked to lifestyle factors like lack of exercise, smoking, alcohol, and obesity.
3️⃣ Regular screening and self-awareness remain your strongest tools for early detection.

Let’s Eradicate Cervical Cancer in South Africa 💙

Dr Marise Subrayan presented for the Durban South Doctors’ Guild at Chatsmed Hospital on “Let’s Eradicate Cervical Cancer in South Africa.”

She explored how the HPV vaccine, now part of South Africa’s 2025 National Immunisation Schedule, can prevent cancers in both women and men, and why gender-neutral, catch-up vaccination is essential to protect everyone, at any age.

It was an honour for Dr Subrayan to return to Chatsmed Hospital for a second year and continue this important conversation on prevention, advocacy, and the possibility of eliminating cervical cancer within our lifetime.

Trying to conceive? Here’s a simple guide to the follicular, ovulation, and luteal phases - and when fertility is at its peak.
𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗣𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 (𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟭→𝗼𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻)
- Starts on the first day of your period. Your body is preparing an egg for release. The length of the follicular phase can vary from woman to woman but is generally between 7->21 days.
𝗢𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗔𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟭𝟰)
- The egg is released and is only viable for up to 24 hours. This is when your fertility peaks, although s***m can live for up to 7 days in the reproductive tract waiting for ovulation.
𝗟𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 (𝟭𝟰 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻)
- Your body prepares for a possible pregnancy. If no fertilisation occurs, progesterone levels drop after 14 days, triggering your period and a new cycle starts. If fertilisation and implantation occur, the pregnancy hormone HCG is released which causes the o***y to continue to release progesterone.
Tip: Track your cycle with an app or journal to better understand your unique rhythm.
Remember: every cycle can vary. If you’re planning pregnancy or have concerns, check in with your healthcare provider.

The way patients are screened for gestational diabetes is changing.

Around 280,000 women are diagnosed with gestational diabetes each year, and the new guidelines released in June recommend raising the blood glucose thresholds that lead to a diagnosis and advise more tailored screening for women with known risk factors in early pregnancy.

The new guidelines focus on diagnosing the condition in women and considering where the benefits outweigh the potential cost, leading to fewer diagnoses where women are at a relatively low risk.

Women who have not had diabetes detected previously are still advised to undergo screening between 24 and 28 weeks’ gestation with a glucose tolerance test (yes, still the same test!), but the thresholds for each blood test have raised.

Women with risk factors are recommended to have a single non-fasting blood test (HbA1c) in early pregnancy to exclude pre-existing gestational diabetes.

If you have any questions about the new screening, contact us.

Contact Dr Subrayan today to learn more.

The loss of a child stays with parents, friends, and family members forever, but it can be challenging for others to truly understand the emotional and physical impact. Events across the country take place each October and help people to better empathize and support parents on their journey to hope. Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month enables us to consider how, as individuals and communities, we can meet the needs of bereaved parents and family members and work to prevent causes of these problems.

When others ask about the pink & blue ribbon, we can…

Inform that 25% of pregnancies end in miscarriage and/or infant loss
Explain that recurrent miscarriage is a symptom of infertility
Educate that miscarriage is one reason some are childless not by choice
Allow the person to share their story (if they feel comfortable) and offer love, support, and encouragement.
Yes, a simple colored ribbon has the potential to start the conversation—to start the education and the advocacy. A simple pink & blue ribbon has the potential to unite us in our grief and in our healing…

What Is Postpartum Depression?
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a complex mix of physical, emotional, and behavioral changes that happen after you give birth. It's a form of major depression that begins within a year after childbirth – most often within the first three months. The diagnosis is based not only on when it happens but how serious your depression is.

Postpartum depression is linked to hormonal, social, and psychological changes that happen when you have a baby and care for a newborn. PPD can be treated with medication and counseling.

It's common to have a mild case of the "baby blues" after giving birth, but this usually goes away within a few weeks. About 1 out of every 10 people will develop a more serious and longer-lasting depression after delivering a baby.

Your doctor may refer to postpartum depression by the umbrella term "perinatal depression." This includes depression that happens during pregnancy or after childbirth.

Nutrition During Pregnancy
Dietary and Caloric Recommendations
To maintain a healthy pregnancy, approximately 300 extra calories are needed each day. These calories should come from a balanced diet of protein, fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Sweets and fats should be kept to a minimum. A healthy, well-balanced diet can also help to reduce some pregnancy symptoms, such as nausea and constipation.
Fluid Intake During Pregnancy
Fluid intake is also an important part of pregnancy nutrition. Follow these recommendations for fluid intake during pregnancy:
You can take in enough fluids by drinking several glasses of water each day, in addition to the fluids in juices and soups. Talk to your health care provider or midwife about restricting your intake of caffeine and artificial sweeteners.
Avoid all forms of alcohol.

Dr Marise Subrayan will be presenting at SASOG PPBU’s first webinar on digital practice, sharing practical lessons from the frontline of social media as a gynaecologist.

From reels and editorials to brand ambassador roles, sports events, radio, and TV, she’s learnt how doctors can use digital platforms to build authentic brands while staying safe.

Social media is not just about visibility — it is about credibility, connection, and trust. Evidence-based, relatable, and relevant voices can shape modern patient care.
