Birth Control Isn't Healing You: What FEMM Does Instead
What if your cycle isn’t something to suppress—but something to listen to?
In this episode, Helen sits down with Lauren, certified FEMM teacher and long-time member of the 3W team, to break down what FEMM (Fertility Education & Medical Management) really is—and why cycle health is a critical indicator of overall health.
They talk about:
Why painful, irregular, or heavy periods are not normal
How hormonal birth control acts as a band-aid instead of addressing root causes
What ovulation has to do with bone health, hormones, and long-term wellness
How FEMM empowers women to understand their bodies and advocate for better care
This conversation goes beyond fertility. It’s about proactive, whole-person healthcare—and giving women the tools and language to understand what their bodies are communicating.
If you’ve ever been told your symptoms are “just part of being a woman,” this episode is for you.
👉 Learn more and book a FEMM class with 3W to start understanding your cycle—and your health—at a deeper level.
