Lately, the National Department of Health flagged a steep decline in routine childhood immunisations across SA.

As a gynecologist, this hits home because preventative care is our strongest shield against life-threatening diseases.

Right now, the national HPV Vaccination Drive is actively rolling out in schools until October, targeting Grade 5 girls aged 9 and older. This vaccine protects our daughters against high-risk strains of the Human Papillomavirus—the primary driver behind cervical cancer.

But here is the catch: healthcare teams are returning from schools with thousands of unsigned parental consent forms. Without your signed form, your child cannot receive this free, life-saving dose.

Cervical cancer is largely preventable. Millions of doses have been safely given in SA since 2014.
Please, let's reverse the vaccine hesitancy trend. Check your child’s school bag today, sign that form, and protect her future womb. 🌸

Happy World Breastfeeding Week!
As a gynaecologist, I see firsthand the incredible strength of the female body.

Breastfeeding is a beautiful journey, but let’s be honest—it is also a learned skill that can come with real challenges.
Whether you are pregnant and planning ahead, currently nursing, or choosing a different path that works best for your family, your medical team is here to support you without judgment.🩺

Quick Medical Benefits of Breastfeeding:
🚼For Baby: Provides perfect nutrition and essential antibodies.
🚼For Baby: Lowers risk of asthma, allergies, and ear infections.
💟For Mum: Helps the uterus contract back to size faster.
💟For Mum: Lowers long-term risks of breast and ovarian cancers.

💡 My Top 3 Tips for New Mums:
1️⃣Skin-to-Skin Immediately: Boosts prolactin, the milk-making hormone.
2️⃣Watch the Latch: Pain means the fit might be off.
3️⃣Hydrate Constantly: Drink a glass of water every single feed.

💫✅Remember: "Fed is best." Your mental health matters just as much as nutritional choices. If you are struggling with pain, supply, or latching, please reach out to your doctor, clinic or a certified lactation consultant. You do not have to figure this out alone!

Let’s Talk About Fibroids: You Are Not Alone

Did you know that by age 50, up to 80% of women will develop uterine fibroids? Despite how common they are, many people suffer in silence, thinking their symptoms are "just part of being a woman."
As a gynaecologist, I want you to know: severe pain and heavy bleeding are NOT things you just have to live with.

🔍 What Exactly Are Fibroids?
Fibroids are non-cancerous (benign) growths made of muscle tissue that develop in or around the walls of the uterus. They can be as small as a seed or as large as a grapefruit.
⚠️ 5 Common Signs to Watch For:
🔻Heavy Periods: Bleeding that requires changing pads/tampons every hour.
🔻Pelvic Pain: A constant feeling of pressure or sharpness in your lower abdomen.
🔻Frequent Urination: A large fibroid can press directly against your bladder.
🔻Lower Backache: Pain that radiates down your lower back or legs.
🔻Pain During In*******se: Discomfort or deep pain during intimacy.

Your treatment should always match your personal goals—whether that is symptom relief, preserving fertility, or avoiding major surgery.

🩺 Take action: If your period is disrupting your daily life, it is time to advocate for your health. Let's find a solution that works for your body.

As we navigate the final chilly weeks of a South African winter, it's easy to focus only on flu vaccines and staying warm. But true winter wellness means looking after your complete reproductive health. ♀

Did you know that cervical cancer remains one of the most common cancers among women in South Africa?
The most powerful tool we have against it is prevention.
Nearly all cervical cancers are linked to high-risk strains of HPV (Human Papillomavirus). Because HPV usually presents with zero symptoms, routine screenings are your shield.

When should you book an appointment?
1️⃣If it has been more than 3 years since your last Pap Smear.
2️⃣If you have ever had an abnormal result and need a follow-up.
3️⃣If you want to discuss the HPV vaccine for yourself or your teenage daughter.
Let's head into Women's Month next month with your routine check-ups already ticked off the list!
