What’s this event about?
This 2-hour women’s health session is for anyone wondering:
- Why is everyone talking about hormones?
- Why are people fearful of perimenopause?
- Why do I keep 'wetting myself'?
- Why is sex uncomfortable — or just not working like it used to?
- Why am I feeling more anxious, flat, or foggy — and could it be hormonal?
We’ll explore how hormones influence your mood, your body, and your pelvic floor — and how changes in estrogen and progesterone can affect everything from sleep and stress to pain, intimacy, and bladder control.
You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:
- What’s normal and what’s not
- How to recognise patterns and symptoms early
- How to communicate your concerns — and what to do when that conversation is hard
- Practical strategies that support your wellbeing now and in the years ahead
Why it matters
Estrogen receptors exist in all but one type of cell in the body — so when estrogen shifts, everything can shift.
Your pelvic floor isn’t just about exercises — it’s connected to how you breathe, walk, move, rest, and feel.
When you understand how your body works, you can respond with clarity and confidence — instead of confusion or silence.
