Restore Integrative Health

Vaginal dryness, painful intimacy, urinary urgency, recurrent UTIs, irritation, and low libido are common in perimenopause and menopause — but they’re often under-discussed.

These symptoms can be part of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause, or GSM.

GSM happens when lower estrogen levels affect the tissues of the v***a, va**na, bladder, and urinary tract. And while it’s common, it’s not something women should be expected to simply tolerate.

There are treatment options — from lubricants and moisturizers to pelvic floor therapy, va**nal estrogen, DHEA, and other individualized approaches.

If these symptoms sound familiar, it may be time to bring them up with a menopause-informed practitioner.

You deserve care that takes these symptoms seriously.

At Restore, our Menopause Society Certified Practitioners support women through perimenopause and menopause with evidence-based, individualized care.

March is Endometriosis Awareness Month

If you live with endometriosis — or suspect you might — you probably don’t need a calendar to remind you. Your body already does.

Debilitating period pain.
Pelvic pain beyond your cycle.
Pain with in*******se.
Bowel symptoms that flare each month.

Let’s be clear: debilitating period pain is not normal.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition that can affect fertility, digestion, energy, intimacy, and mental health. Yet diagnosis is often delayed for years.

While imaging and lab work can help, a normal ultrasound does not rule out endometriosis.
Your symptom patterns and lived experience matter — and they are important clinical information.

Care is rarely one-dimensional. Many people benefit from a layered approach that may include medical care, nutrition, movement, and targeted integrative support.

But beyond the physiology, there’s also the emotional reality: cancelled plans, bracing before your cycle, fertility worries, and feeling dismissed when tests appear “normal.”

Persistent pain is a signal. It deserves thoughtful investigation and compassionate care.

— Dr. Stephanie Peltz, ND

If you’re curious about an integrative approach to endometriosis care, Dr. Peltz offers complimentary meet-and-greets to see if working together is the right fit.
