Thousands of women share your concerns.
Recurrent Candida
Is the itching driving you crazy?
​
​​As your hormones change in your early 40s, you might have found yourself more prone to to recurrent Candida infections (also called thrush, or yeast infections).
​
This is because Candida has a relationship with estrogen.
​
Learn how to support your estrogen levels and clear Candida.
Bacterial vaginosis
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is common in perimenopause and causes odour and discharge.
​
AV (aerobic vaginosis) is also common, though it's not as well recognised. AV can be why your vagina feels like it's on fire when the tests show that you don't have BV.
Women in perimenopause can experience burning pain in their vaginas when their vaginal microbiome is out of balance because of hormonal changes.
​
Learn how to support your vaginal microbiome changes.
Recurrent urinary tract infections UTI
Perimenopause is also a time when you can be more prone to urinary tract infections, once again because your vaginal microbiome is disrupted by hormonal changes.
​
Some women have infections for years, often triggered by sex. Are you avoiding being intimate with your partner because you fear the pain of a UTI?
​
It's also common for women in perimenopause to get stuck in a loop of UTI's, antibiotics and Candida infections.
​
Learn how to heal and support your urinary tract.
Dry vagina
Dry vagina become more prevalent in the later stages of perimenopause and post menopause.
​
Estrogen is the most common reason for dryness, however other lifestyle, diet and mediations can play a role.
Vagina and vulval tissue changes
Perimenopause is also a time when you might notice changes to the tissue in your vagina, on your labia, or your vulva.
​
Eczema, lichen sclerosus are changes that require a referral to a specialist. See your doctor if you have worrying tissue changes.
The benefits of this program
When you work with me, we will discuss
how your vaginal symptoms are linked to your hormones​
​
perimenopause brings unique vaginal challenges
and deserves a unique style of treatment
​
Have you tried following advice from an online group? Tried a treatment recommended by a friend?
The reason these treatments aren't working for you can be due to the hormone changes of perimenopause.​
​
​
​
Other factors that affect your treatment:
-
genetics
-
lifestyle
-
daily eating habits

sexual practices

metabolism (energy metabolism, and estrogen metabolism)
-
health history (previous surgeries, allergies, hormone or IVF treatments)

What other women are saying about the program:
Hazel R. USA
"Simones videos were really clear and informative! I had already read a lot about perimenopause, but this cleared up so much for me and I gained so much new knowledge. I watched them all twice which really helped for my consultation with Simone, as she didn't need to waste time explaining stuff. We were able to get to the nitty gritty of the things going on with me extremely efficiently which made the whole package great value for money.
Hi! I'm Simone Jeffries

I am a naturopath, herbalist, nutritionist and a health coach.
​
I have a special interest in mentoring women to feel good about their vagina and sexual health. This interest came about after discovering the trauma that ongoing, unresolved vaginal problems cause for women of all ages.
I have spoken to many hundreds of peri-menopausal women over the past decade. So I understand the vaginal conditions that affect women of this age group. I also understand how these conditions are influenced by hormonal changes of perimenopause.

specific study and research into this neglected area
