Join me for an enlightening conversation with Alison Patchett, @the.vag.hormone.naturopath, as we uncover the often overlooked world of vaginal health during perimenopause and menopause. Have you ever wondered why there's a stigma around discussing vaginal wellness? Alison shares her transformative journey from corporate life to her true passion: empowering women to embrace and understand their bodies. Together, we break down the barriers in discussing these intimate health topics, highlighting the common changes women experience, such as dryness and irritation, and their impact on self-confidence and sexual health.

Discover how natural solutions can make a significant difference in maintaining vaginal health. We delve into the benefits of naturopathic approaches and why targeted testing, although not covered by Medicare, can be a game-changer. From the soothing properties of sea buckthorn and flaxseed gel to simple lifestyle tweaks like what underwear to choose, we share practical tips that go a long way in promoting comfort and wellness. 

Navigating the complexities of recurrent vaginal symptoms like thrush is crucial for optimal health. With Alison's expert insights, we address the misconceptions surrounding these issues and the importance of accurate diagnosis. Understanding the vaginal microbiome and the role of hormones can lead to more effective treatment plans. Our conversation emphasizes the need for women to advocate for their health confidently and underscores the value of collaboration between medical and natural health practitioners to achieve comprehensive, personalized care. Tune in as we encourage open dialogues and empower women to take charge of their vaginal health during these transitional years.
