+Using MongoDB with SSL/TLS
+--------------------------
+
+For secure connections to remote MongoDB instances (such as Amazon DocumentDB, MongoDB Atlas, or production deployments), you can use SSL/TLS certificates.
+
+Amazon DocumentDB Example
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Amazon DocumentDB requires SSL/TLS connections with a certificate file. Here's how to configure ChatterBot:
+
+1. Download the Amazon RDS CA certificate bundle:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   wget https://truststore.pki.rds.amazonaws.com/global/global-bundle.pem
+
+2. Configure ChatterBot to use the certificate:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   from chatterbot import ChatBot
+
+   bot = ChatBot(
+       'MyBot',
+       storage_adapter='chatterbot.storage.MongoDatabaseAdapter',
+       database_uri='mongodb://USERNAME:[email protected]:27017/?ssl=true&replicaSet=rs0&readPreference=secondaryPreferred',
+       mongodb_client_kwargs={
+           'tlsCAFile': 'global-bundle.pem'  # Path to your certificate file
+       }
+   )
+
+MongoDB Atlas Example
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For MongoDB Atlas with SSL/TLS:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   from chatterbot import ChatBot
+
+   bot = ChatBot(
+       'MyBot',
+       storage_adapter='chatterbot.storage.MongoDatabaseAdapter',
+       database_uri='mongodb+srv://USERNAME:[email protected]/?retryWrites=true&w=majority',
+       mongodb_client_kwargs={
+           'tls': True,
+           'tlsAllowInvalidCertificates': False  # Use True only for testing
+       }
+   )
+
+Self-Signed Certificates
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If you're using self-signed certificates:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   from chatterbot import ChatBot
+
+   bot = ChatBot(
+       'MyBot',
+       storage_adapter='chatterbot.storage.MongoDatabaseAdapter',
+       database_uri='mongodb://localhost:27017/chatterbot-database?ssl=true',
+       mongodb_client_kwargs={
+           'tlsCAFile': '/path/to/ca.pem',
+           'tlsCertificateKeyFile': '/path/to/client.pem',
+           'tlsAllowInvalidCertificates': False
+       }
+   )
+
+Additional MongoDB Client Options
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The ``mongodb_client_kwargs`` parameter accepts any valid PyMongo MongoClient options, including:
+
+- ``tlsCAFile``: Path to CA certificate file
+- ``tlsCertificateKeyFile``: Path to client certificate file
+- ``tls``: Enable/disable TLS
+- ``tlsAllowInvalidCertificates``: Allow invalid certificates (not recommended for production)
+- ``serverSelectionTimeoutMS``: Timeout for server selection
+- ``connectTimeoutMS``: Connection timeout
+- ``socketTimeoutMS``: Socket timeout
+- ``maxPoolSize``: Maximum connection pool size
+- ``minPoolSize``: Minimum connection pool size
+
+For a complete list of options, see the `PyMongo MongoClient documentation`_.
