How you can prioritise your health and wellbeing as a woman
It can be hard to prioritise your health and wellbeing as a woman, especially when there are many different aspects of care. Our Pharmacists and team at Blooms The Chemist can use their extensive knowledge to help support you in your health journey.
Sexual and reproductive health
Making sure you're in optimal health when it comes to your sexual and reproductive health is essential for taking care of yourself. As there are different life stages associated with specific women's sexual and reproductive health issues, we're focussing on fertility and menopause.
Your age impacts fertility, as a woman is born with all the eggs she will have in her lifetime. Fertility generally starts to decline slowly when a woman is in her early 30s and speeds up after the age of 351.
If you're worried about your fertility, you can get help by visiting your doctors or visiting a fertility specialist if you're looking for extra support or services to help you get pregnant. A range of organisations can also help you through your fertility journey, or you can seek help from your local community.
Menopause is another issue that impacts the quality of life of women and women's health. Menopause means the end of monthly periods, with most women experiencing menopause between the ages of 45 and 552.
Women's health can also be impacted by menopause, as some symptoms include2:
• Hot flushes
• Sleep problems
• Headaches
If you cannot get the support you need to relieve your symptoms, you can speak to your doctor or visit your local general practice. Our Pharmacists at Blooms
The Chemist are also committed to supporting you through your menopause journey and overall health and wellbeing.
General health and wellbeing
Women can focus on improving their general health and wellbeing by:
• Making sure they have access to a range of services, including blood pressure checks, iron screenings, and more to maintain their health, which are available at Blooms The Chemist
• Visiting the doctors when they need access to resources or are concerned about their health
• Looking after their health by getting enough sleep, reducing stress and eating a healthy diet
