Waking up three times a night to p*e? Dealing with vaginal dryness? Pain during s*x? You really don’t have to just put up with it.
These are conversations we need to be having more openly.
These symptoms are incredibly common through perimenopause and menopause, but they’re not something women should have to quietly accept.
As estrogen declines, it can affect vaginal tissue, lubrication, pelvic floor function and bladder tone. It can even mean waking throughout the night to urinate, which can seriously affect your sleep and how you feel the next day.
There are so many ways I can support this, from nutrition, hydration and functional training through to vaginal moisturisers and, when appropriate, local vaginal estrogen.
If you’re experiencing vaginal dryness, painful s*x, vaginal atrophy, bladder weakness or frequent nighttime urination, book an appointment with me and let’s work out what your body needs.
