Description
Did you know that your period can be considered a fifth vital sign?! Do you deal with painful periods, amenorrhea or major mood swings during your cycle? Want to know what your period says about your overall health? Tune in to hear Ali and Becki discuss period drama (not the kind in your Netflix series!) and how to deal with cramping, bloating, GI distress, moodiness and beyond!
In this episode, Ali and Becki break down what happens in each phase of the menstrual cycle and discuss common period concerns including heavy cramps, painful cycles, bloating, mood issues and beyond. Learn how tracking your cycle and your symptoms can be key to understanding what is going on in your body and how basal body temperature can serve as both birth control and fertility support. Get our take on IUDs, hormone-free contraceptive gels like Phexxi and new updates on how oral contraceptives can impact your brain health. Plus we dish out supplement and food as medicine recommendations for a drama free cycle!
