Menopause marks the transition into the majestic years of a woman's life and should not be dreaded or feared. It usually occurs between 48-52 years of age.

Some of the common menopause symptoms that women may experience in their golden years are:

• Hot flushes, night sweats, insomnia.
• Mood changes: irritability, depression, anxiety.
• Sexual function changes: low libido, vaginal dryness, painful in*******se.
• Sore or tender breasts.
• Metabolic changes: easy weight gain, more difficult to lose.
• Urogenital changes: more prone to urinary tract infections, and thrush.
• Memory problems
• Bone changes: more prone to osteoporosis

FYI - entering your majestic years automatically makes you a Queen. Just saying...

Seeking advice from your gynaecologist in regard to dealing with painful periods is important.

For many women, getting your period may just cause mild discomfort, but to others, it may be debilitating. Every woman is different. Common symptoms can include cramps, breast soreness and headaches but more severe pain could be a sign of endometriosis or uterine fibroids.

Don't suffer in silence, please reach out. I may be able to suggest solutions that make these conditions easier to manage.

Once you find out you are pregnant, taking care of that little baby in your tummy becomes your main objective.

The best way to keep your baby healthy is to make sure you are healthy. This includes maintaining a healthy diet, exercising, and not consuming alcohol or recreational drugs of any kind.

Be sure to discuss any medications or supplements that you are taking during your next visit.

A question I get on a regular basis is: How often should I be menstruating?

Typically, a non-pregnant woman regularly menstruates once a month until she begins transitioning into menopause (this transition phase is known as perimenopause). If you miss one or more periods, this could be a sign of perimenopause, pregnancy, stress, or other changes in your health or lifestyle.

If you are concerned about your menstrual cycle or general female health, please make an appointment to visit my consultation room.

Preparing your daughter for her first period is a wonderful right of passage that every mother can enjoy. Here are some tips on how to approach this special event.

- Treat a period like other developmental milestones. Celebrate her journey into womanhood with a special mom-and-daughter date.
- Reassure your daughter that menstruation is normal and discuss what she might experience.
- Don't assume your daughter knows everything.
- Don't wait until your daughter starts her period to show her how pads work so that she may be prepared for when the time comes.
