When I was creating Made Of More, I was very clear that I wanted to help women with all the concerns that hormones can create because they affect every facet of our (very busy) lives. After spending hours with doctors, female health specialists including Dr Dhesi (Made Of More’s Clinical Lead) and most importantly, women, I was able to fully understand our needs.

It’s important to understand what exactly the term microbiome refers to. The microbiome refers to the collection of microorganisms (like bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microbes) that live in and on our bodies. These microorganisms play a crucial role in maintaining health and are found in various parts of the body, including the gut, skin, mouth, reproductive system as well as the vagina and vulva.

It’s time to take back control.

As an all-female team (with the exception of Dr. Dhesi, our Clinical Lead), we know how
hormonal change can affect our libido; you’re not alone if you’re thinking you’re not
interested anymore or that you are but just don’t have the energy; it’s totally normal.

The key is to realise it’s your hormones that are dictating the situation, not you. 

As experts in hormones and how they can negatively manifest on the skin in midlife, it’s now time to talk about how hormones can also work in our favour….. The orgasm. Apart from the obvious, we delve into the wider benefits of how orgasms can aid in our overall wellbeing with Made Of More’s Clinical Lead, Dr Sunny Dhesi.
