Listen Later

Have you ever been told that your missing period can be "fixed" by getting on hormonal birth control? Brittany explains in this episode why birth control is only a bandaid to your missing period and how it doesn't get to the root cause of your hypothalamic amenorrhea. She also discusses some signs to look for if you've been on hormonal birth control for years and don't know if your body has recovered or would be "okay" on its own without it.
