"Anything you can do, I can do bleeding." - Marley
There are unique challenges to cycling as a person with a uterus, and we're here to talk about it!
This episode we cover cycling while pregnant, and cycling while on your period. Marley and Ellen are joined by Ellen's friend and fellow parent-commuter cyclist, Rachel Epler, to discuss the disparate data, anecdotes, and advice—plus your questions related to both topics.
Disclaimer: We aren't doctors! Every pregnancy, period, and person is different. Talk to a trusted medical provider if or when it's your turn to make these decisions.

Opening song: Female Body by Farideh (@Farideh on TikTok, Insta, YouTube). Listen on YouTube.
We discussed several period underwear brands, but upon closer inspection not all of them as size-inclusive as we remembered. We're sorry for not catching this before recording! We later found Ruby (up to 8x), Tomboyx (up to 6x), and The Period Co (up to 6x). Brands mentioned are Boody (up to 3x), Thinx (up to 4x), and Knix (up to 4x).
Marley previously wrote about cycling while on your period for Cascade Bicycle Club
New Zealand politician Julie Anne Genter cycles to hospital to give birth.
