Puberty

The transition to maturity from childhood is a vulnerable and delicate stage in a woman’s life. The Women’s Clinic can help with specific conditions experienced at this time. It is also an optimum time for young women to learn about and establish good lifestyle practices, to help them minimise health problems in later life.

Some conditions that can be addressed include:

Acne
Acute infections
Chronic infections
Menstrual difficulties
(including painful periods, pre-menstrual tension, late onset of periods)
Headaches
Inappropriate dietary patterns
Emotional difficulties
