💬 ASK THE “EMBARRASSING” QUESTIONS
There are some health questions that can feel a little awkward to ask… but we promise, we’ve heard them all! 💗
Your pharmacist is a safe, private and judgement-free place to start.
✅ Vaginal dryness or discomfort
✅ Thrush or unusual discharge
✅ Urinary leakage or bladder problems
✅ Vaginal or ge***al odour
✅ Pain during s*x

✅ Low libido or changes in s*xual health
✅ Constipation, haemorrhoids or bowel concerns
✅ Questions about contraception or emergency contraception
✅ Changes in your breasts or ni***es
✅ “Is this normal?” — honestly, one of the most important questions you can ask!
🌷 No question is too embarrassing.
If something has changed, is worrying you, or just doesn’t feel right, come and have a private chat with our pharmacy team.
You might be surprised how common your “embarrassing” question actually is. 💕

This week on Women’s health week we want to encourage woman to chat to us about hormone replacement options available to them to help manage the symptoms of peri-menopause and menopause
🌸 MENOPAUSE HEALTH CHECKLIST 🌸
Menopause can bring a whole range of changes — and you don’t have to just “put up with it”.
✅ Know your symptoms
Hot flushes • night sweats • sleep changes • mood changes • brain fog • vaginal dryness • changes in periods
✅ Check your bones 🦴
Menopause can accelerate bone loss. Make sure you’re getting enough calcium, vitamin D and weight-bearing exercise.
✅ Look after your heart ❤️
Keep an eye on blood pressure, cholesterol, healthy eating, exercise and your overall cardiovascular health.
✅ Prioritise sleep 😴
Poor sleep is common around menopause. Talk to your healthcare professional if it’s affecting your everyday life.
✅ Keep moving 🏋️‍♀️
Resistance training, walking and other weight-bearing exercise can help support muscles, bones and overall health.
✅ Take care of your mental wellbeing 💕
Changes in hormones can affect mood, anxiety and how you feel day to day. Don’t suffer in silence.
✅ Talk about treatment options
There are a range of options available to help manage menopause symptoms. What’s right for you depends on your individual health and circumstances.
✅ Keep up with health checks
Stay up to date with blood pressure, cholesterol, breast screening, cervical screening and other age-appropriate health checks.
🌷 MOST IMPORTANTLY: You don’t have to suffer through menopause alone.
Come and chat with our friendly pharmacy team at Toogoolawah Pharmacy. We’re here to help you understand your options and support you through every stage of women’s health.
💗 Ask us about your menopause health today.

Our prescribing pharmacists can now discuss your options with you and write a prescription for you in the pharmacy for contraceptives without you needing to visit your GP. We are also able to administer depo contraceptive injections. See one of our friendly team to book an appointment.

Annie’s pharmacy gift pick: I love the Moo Goo range. It is designed for sensitive skin, has no harsh chemicals or perfumes and is made locally in Burleigh. It is great for those with eczema, dermatitis and for children. I like the shampoos and also the gift packs.

Do you have an updated asthma action plan? There is a common misconception that plans are only required to be provided to schools. All patients with asthma (adults included) benefit from an individualised action plan.

If you haven’t updated your plan recently, book a free appointment with our prescribing pharmacists to review your plan and update any management details so that you can be prepared in the event of an asthma attack.

Using your blue reliever puffer is not enough to treat asthma anymore. 🥶
The asthma prescribing and management guidelines have been updated and it is now recommended that anyone with asthma use an inhaler that reduces the inflammation in the airways. 🫁💨
Continuous asthma attacks and inflammation leads to remodelling and damage to our airways over time, making asthma harder to treat the longer it goes on mismanaged. 😨

Consultations to discuss your asthma are FREE with our prescribing pharmacists. If eligible we can prescribe the new inhaler for you. ⛅️💙

Using a spacer with your asthma puffer delivers 50-100% more of the drug into your lungs, leading to significantly improved asthma symptoms.
Spacers also help prevent less medicine sitting in the back of your throat which can cause fungal infections or throat irritation or voice changes.
Clean your spacer with hot dishwashing detergent and allow to drip dry without a cloth.
Come in this week for more advice from our pharmacists on how to correctly use your inhaler. We can assess your inhaler technique.
