Honest, evidence-based information about the transitions no one prepares you for.

What happens in your body during pregnancy, postpartum, and peri/menopause deserves a real answer.

Not a rushed appointment. Not a pamphlet. Not a Google search that leaves you more anxious than when you started.

This is where Dr. Melissa Adrouny and the Village team share what they know — the clinical truths, the things undersaid in standard care, and the honest conversation about what these transitions actually feel like and what you actually need to move through them well.

Every article on this blog is written from inside a women's health practice in San Jose that was built specifically because the standard model was not enough. Evidence-based. Emotionally honest. No filler.
