Stopping bladder leaks in their tracks may be as easy as changing your diet! What you eat and drink can have a big effect on a sensitive bladder. Some foods, such as foods with caffeine, spicy🌶 foods, acidic foods like citrus, or foods with a lot of sugar can really irritate the bladder, making leaks more likely. 🥦🥗🥕

As young girls grow into teens, it is important that they receive appropriate medical care. The idea of seeing a gynecologist can make both parents and teens feel nervous, embarrassed or even scared. Understanding what to expect may help to alleviate some of these concerns.

The first gynecological visit has three main purposes, and usually does not involve a pelvic exam:
Information - Teens will be offered the opportunity to obtain accurate and confidential information about many topics.

Prevention - Teens will have the chance to learn about how to prevent pregnancy, s*xually transmitted diseases, and living a healthy lifestyle.

Treatment - For those teens with concerns regarding missed or painful periods, or other gynecologic issues, we can discuss and offer treatment options.

We believe that developing a trusting relationship with a gynecologist early in life can prove to be beneficial for future reproductive health. We want women of all ages to know they have a place to turn for information and care related to all of her gynecologic needs

🔥Hot flashes affect two-thirds of women in perimenopause and menopause. These flashes of intense warmth across your face, neck, and chest are considered one of the most bothersome symptoms of menopause.

Hot flashes are a natural biological process, but don’t assume that you have to accept the embarrassment and discomfort of hot flashes. Hot flashes are unpleasant enough when the weather is cool, so they become even more unbearable during the hot days of summer.

Pregnancy FAQ:
✨ Is it okay to use over-the-counter cold medicines? ✨

Read labels carefully. Multi-symptom cold formulas may contain alcohol or additional ingredients you don’t need. Use cold medicines at the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed, and follow dosing instructions carefully.

Decongestants should be used sparingly, especially if you have high blood pressure, you smoke, or you’re taking medications to reduce fever, pain, or inflammation.

Also, try to avoid decongestants during your first trimester unless allergy symptoms affect your ability to sleep and breathe — both are important for a healthy pregnancy.

Pregnancy-approved treatments for a stuffy nose are saline nose spray or a neti pot filled with sterile saline rinse, nasal strips at night, and sleeping with your head slightly elevated. Most antihistamines (examples are Claritin® and Zyrtec®) are also considered safe to use.

There are many different ways you can help during Endometriosis Awareness Month. Here's one way to get involved:

💛 Talk about it 💛

Often, the most challenging part about endometriosis is opening up lines of communication with yourself, your family and friends, and most importantly, your provider. It’s imperative to talk about your experiences with a provider as they will be able to distinguish whether what you’re experiencing is due to a severe menstrual cycle or if it’s a disorder such as endometriosis.

💕Healthy mom tip: ACOG (The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) recommends all women consume 400 micrograms of folic acid a day by taking a vitamin supplement before and during pregnancy to help prevent neural tube defects.

When estrogen levels decline after menopause, many changes occur. 50% of women in the U.S. suffer from changes in their feminine health, and many more say that they think these issues negatively impact their lives. MonaLisa Touch can help! Call us for details 586-779-9400.
