Menstrual cycles. We have about 400 of them in our lifetime. Yet most of us know so little about how this amazing process really works, and why they’re so important to pay attention to and know how to interpret.

That right there's a good reason to know more about how your menstrual cycle works.

With this episode you have a roadmap to tell you when they’re getting back on track.
