Melbourne’s Trusted Naturopath for Menopause & Women’s Health
Are you tired of feeling like your body is working against you?
Struggling with unpredictable periods, sleepless nights, brain fog, or weight that just won't budge no matter what you try?
You're not broken. You're not "just getting older." You're navigating one of life's most significant transitions—and you deserve support that actually works.
Let Me Guide You Through This Journey
I've walked this path with hundreds of women just like you over the past 20+ years. I understand the frustration of being told your symptoms are "just part of getting older" or having your concerns dismissed. That's exactly why I've dedicated my career to helping women reclaim their vitality during perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Welcome to Urban Sense, where I offer naturopathic care tailored specifically to women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond—those navigating the often confusing, overwhelming changes of perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause.
I’m Cheryl Penna, a degree-qualified Women’s Health Naturopath in Melbourne, with over 20 years of experience helping women just like you. If you’re exhausted from being told “everything looks fine” when you feel far from it—know that you’re not imagining things, and you're not alone.
What I Provide
When you work with me, you're not just getting another healthcare provider—you're getting someone who combines deep clinical expertise with genuine understanding of what you're experiencing right now.

Do any of these symptoms
sound familiar?
The Hot Flash Rollercoster
One minute you're fine, the next your drenched in sweat and wondering if everyone can tell. Sleep becomes elusive, and you're tired of feeling embarassed by your own body.
Mood Swings You Don't Recognise
You snap at loved ones, feel anxious about things that never bothered you, or find yourself crying for no reason. This is isn't who you are, but its who you're becoming.
Skin That's Changed
Dryness, sensitivity, breakouts where there were never before. Your skin care routine isn't working, and you're frustrated by this new reflection staring back at you.
Energy That Just Disappeared
You used to power through your days, but now even simple tasks feel overwhelming. Coffee isn't cutting it anymore, and you're frustrated by how exhausted you feel.
Weight Won't Budge
The same healthy habits that used to work don't anymore. Your clothes don't fit, you avoid mirrors, and nothing you try seems to make a difference.
Doctor's Who Don't Listen
"It's just your age," they say, or "try this pill." But you want answers, not band-aids. You want someone who understands that this isn't how you want to live.
I hear this a lot from my patients
I understand because I've heard these stories hundreds of times. More importantly, I've seen women transform their lives when they finally get the personalised, comprehensive care they deserve.
Imagine Instead ..........
What your life could look like with the right support
Waking Up Refreshed
Sleeping through the night, feeling rested, and having the energy to enjoy your days instead of just surviving them.
Having Energy For What Matters
Playing with grandchildren, pursuing hobbies, traveling, or simply having the stamina for your full, rich life.
Feeling Emotionally Balanced
Responding to stress with calm confidence, feeling like yourself again, and enjoying stable moods throughout your day.
Loving Your Reflection
Skin that glows, clothes that fit comfortably, and feeling confident in your own body at any age.
Here's How We'll Get You There
