Cancer is more than a diagnosis.
It is a deeply personal journey.

Behind every statistic is a human story - of fear, grief, courage, healing, love, and resilience. No two journeys are the same.

This World Cancer Day, we stand united in recognising the strength of those who have fought, are fighting, and will continue to fight. We honour the families who walk this road alongside them. And we commit to a future of care that sees the person before the patient.

An important step forward in women’s health:
Recent updates confirm the removal of outdated “black box” warnings from menopausal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) product labelling. These changes reflect current scientific evidence and aim to provide balanced, accurate information, empowering women to make informed decisions together with their healthcare providers.

Research shows that for most women, when started within 10 years of menopause, HRT benefits often outweigh potential risks. Evidence has shown:
• No increase in cancer mortality.
• Reduced all-cause mortality.
• Lower fracture risk.
• Reduced cardiovascular risk.
• Reduced cognitive decline when appropriately prescribed.

Progress in cancer care isn’t only about treatment, it’s about truth, education, compassion, and choice.

Today, and every day, we stand

We know this isn’t exactly dinner-party conversation, which is exactly why we’re having it here.

Vaginal dryness, irritation, painful s*x, or recurrent UTIs aren’t “just part of ageing,” and they don’t only happen after menopause. Many perimenopausal and menopausal women experience these symptoms as estrogen levels decline.

Concerned about symptoms? Book an appointment with one of our doctors to discuss your options and find the right solution for you.

UTIs are often dismissed as a minor inconvenience, but in postmenopausal women, they can pose serious health risks if left untreated.

After menopause, the natural drop in estrogen leads to thinning of vaginal and urinary tissues, a loss of protective acidity, and a reduction in beneficial bacteria. These changes weaken the body’s natural defences, making it easier for harmful bacteria to ascend the urinary tract. As a result, UTIs become more frequent, harder to clear, and more likely to progress beyond the bladder.

Research has shown that in postmenopausal women, vaginal estrogen use is significantly associated with reduced adverse outcomes. Estrogen therapy has been linked to:
• A 51% reduction in the risk of sepsis.
• A 22% lower risk of hospitalisation.
• A 73% reduction in the odds of death.
• Overall significantly reduced mortality among estrogen users.
In postmenopausal women, UTIs may not always present with typical symptoms.

Recurrent UTIs are not “just part of ageing.” They require proper evaluation, follow-up, and an individualised prevention plan. If you’re concerned, reach out to us. No concern is ever too small.

If your mom never told you this, you’re not alone.

For generations, vaginal health has been treated as a taboo topic - whispered about, misunderstood, or avoided altogether. As a result, many women of all ages were never taught the basics of how to properly care for their vaginal health.

If you’ve ever secretly Googled symptoms, felt unsure about what’s “normal,” or wished someone had explained this sooner; this series is for you! Most women were never taught the fundamentals of vaginal health, so let’s start the conversation and jump into the basics.

If you found this helpful, share it with a friend, sister, or daughter.

Skin cancer remains one of the most common cancers worldwide and in South Africa, our high UV exposure significantly increases lifetime risk. The encouraging reality is that most skin cancers are highly treatable when detected early.

Skin cancer develops when abnormal skin cells grow uncontrollably, most often due to cumulative ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources such as tanning beds. While fair-skinned individuals are at higher risk, all skin tones are affected, and delayed diagnosis can occur when warning signs are overlooked.

Regular self-examinations and routine professional skin checks play a critical role in early detection. Being familiar with your own skin and recognising changes early, can be life-saving.

07/01/2026

Sunscreen is one of the most effective tools we have to protect our skin health - but only when it’s used correctly.
• Apply sunscreen evenly and liberally at least 30 minutes before sun exposure.
• Reapply every two hours when outdoors.
• Reapply after swimming, heavy sweating, or towel-drying.
• Don’t forget commonly missed areas: ears, lips, nose, chest, shoulders, hands, and feet.
• Avoid direct sun exposure during the hottest part of the day (10am–4pm) when UV radiation is strongest.

Choosing the Right Sun Protection: Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against UVA and UVB rays. Many dermatologists recommend SPF 50, as higher SPF values provide greater protection against sunburn, premature ageing, pigmentation, and skin cancer. Sun protection goes beyond sunscreen alone. For optimal protection wear wide-brimmed hats & choose protective clothing such as long sleeves.

Make sunscreen reapplication a habit throughout the day, regardless of the weather.
