Perimenopause can bring changes beyond your menstrual cycle.

Sleep disturbances, hot flushes, mood changes, brain fog and irregular periods can all be part of this transition. Every woman’s experience can be different, and understanding these changes is the first step towards managing them.

If these symptoms are affecting your daily life, a conversation with a healthcare professional can help you understand your options.

🤍 Perimenopause: More Than Just Changes to Your Periods

Perimenopause is a natural stage of hormonal transition that can affect many aspects of wellbeing — not just the menstrual cycle.

As hormone levels fluctuate, some women may experience irregular or heavier periods, changes in premenstrual symptoms, hot flushes and night sweats, sleep disturbance, mood changes, difficulty concentrating or “brain fog”, changes in energy, vaginal dryness and changes in sexual wellbeing. Some women also notice changes in weight, skin or hair during this time.

Symptoms can vary considerably between women, both in their type and severity. Not every symptom is necessarily related to perimenopause, so persistent or concerning changes deserve appropriate assessment to exclude other possible causes.

Individualised medical care can help you understand the changes you are experiencing and discuss evidence-based options to manage symptoms and support your health through this transition.

Dr Kavita Maravar provides personalised care for women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond, with a focus on informed choices, symptom management and long-term wellbeing. 🌿

🤍 Uterine Fibroids: Understanding Your Symptoms

Uterine fibroids are benign growths that develop from the muscle of the uterus. They are common and can vary in size, number and location. Some women have no symptoms, while others may experience symptoms depending on the fibroids’ size and position.

Possible symptoms include:
• Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
• Pelvic pressure, heaviness or pain
• Abdominal fullness or bloating
• Frequent urination or pressure on the bladder
• Constipation or pressure on the bowel
• Discomfort during in*******se

Not every fibroid requires treatment. When symptoms are affecting your wellbeing, treatment options depend on factors such as the size and location of the fibroids, symptoms, reproductive plans and overall health.

Dr Kavita Maravar provides evidence-based, individualised assessment and management of uterine fibroids, with treatment options discussed according to each woman’s circumstances and preferences.

Pelvic pain, urinary changes, bleeding after in*******se, post-menopausal bleeding, or unusual vaginal bleeding and discharge should be discussed with your doctor.

These symptoms do not automatically mean cervical cancer, but they should not be ignored. Timely assessment and appropriate cervical screening can help identify the cause and guide the next steps. Dr Kavita Maravar’s services include abnormal Pap smear and cervical screening care.

🤍 Healthy Pregnancy: Everyday Choices Matter

A healthy pregnancy is supported by informed choices, regular antenatal care and healthy everyday habits. Some common misconceptions and avoidable mistakes include:

• Missing or delaying antenatal appointments and recommended screening
• Taking prescription, over-the-counter or complementary medicines without first seeking appropriate medical advice
• Following an unbalanced diet based on the idea of “eating for two” — pregnancy generally requires only a modest increase in energy intake, particularly in later pregnancy
• Neglecting adequate sleep, hydration and overall wellbeing
• Avoiding physical activity altogether when there is no medical reason to do so

Every pregnancy is different, and recommendations may vary depending on your health, pregnancy and individual circumstances. Before making significant changes to your diet, medications or exercise routine, discuss them with your healthcare professional.

Regular antenatal care provides an opportunity to monitor maternal and fetal wellbeing, offer recommended screening and vaccinations, identify potential concerns early, and provide personalised advice throughout pregnancy.
🌿 Small, informed choices can make a meaningful difference to your wellbeing during pregnancy.

🤍 Gestational Diabetes: Understanding the Risks and Management

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) occurs when the hormonal changes of pregnancy increase insulin resistance and the body is unable to produce enough insulin to maintain blood glucose levels within the recommended range.

GDM can occur in anyone during pregnancy, although the likelihood may be higher with certain risk factors, including a previous history of gestational diabetes, a family history of type 2 diabetes, higher pre-pregnancy weight, polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS), prediabetes or a previous pregnancy affected by a larger-for-gestational-age baby.

GDM is usually screened for during pregnancy according to Australian clinical guidelines. If diagnosed, management may include nutritional advice, regular physical activity, blood glucose monitoring and, when required, medication or insulin.

With appropriate monitoring and individualised care, most women with GDM can have healthy pregnancies and outcomes. Good blood glucose control helps reduce pregnancy complications and supports the wellbeing of both mother and baby.

🌿 If you have risk factors for GDM or have been diagnosed with it, personalised antenatal care can help you understand your options and manage your pregnancy with confidence.

Pelvic pain should not simply be accepted as part of everyday life. It may be associated with conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, adenomyosis, ovarian cysts or pelvic infections.

The cause cannot be identified from symptoms alone, so persistent, severe or recurring pain deserves a proper medical assessment. Dr Kavita Maravar supports women with a range of gynaecological concerns using evidence-based approaches.

🤍 Adenomyosis: Understanding the Symptoms
Adenomyosis is a condition in which endometrial tissue is present within the muscular wall of the uterus. It can cause the uterus to become enlarged and may be associated with painful or heavy menstrual bleeding.
Common symptoms may include:
• Heavy or prolonged periods
• Painful periods or severe cramping
• Persistent pelvic pain
• Pelvic pressure or a feeling of fullness
• Bloating or abdominal discomfort
• Pain or discomfort during in*******se

Some women have few or no symptoms, while others may experience symptoms that significantly affect their daily life and wellbeing.
Because symptoms can overlap with conditions such as endometriosis and uterine fibroids, a thorough assessment is important. Evaluation may include a detailed history, examination and pelvic imaging, particularly ultrasound, with further assessment when clinically indicated.
Treatment is individualised and may include medical or surgical options depending on symptom severity, reproductive plans and personal preferences.

Dr Kavita Maravar provides evidence-based, individualised care for women with adenomyosis, with a focus on accurate assessment, symptom management and improving quality of life. 🌿
