Rewriting the Narrative

Preparing Your Body for Pregnancy: Key Steps After Birth Control


Listen Later

If you’re thinking about getting pregnant after birth control, here’s what you need to know!   Hormonal birth control works by preventing ovulation, and it can take time and a little extra health support for your body to restore ovulation and its natural hormonal rhythm. 

In this episode of Rewriting the Narrative, Sarah Bishop and Meredith Paci dive into the important considerations for women transitioning off birth control and planning pregnancy.

Topics include:

  • The timeline for restoring ovulation after stopping hormonal birth control
  • baseline health assessments and lab work
  • How diet, micronutrients, and gut health shift on hormonal birth control and after  
  • The role of emotional wellbeing, relationship health, and community during preconception
  • Practical steps for lifestyle, including supplements, food choices, and supporting detoxification 
  • Strategies for coaches supporting clients on fertility journeys

  • This transition time can help harness a deeper understanding of the female body to optimize fertility and just get more in tune with your body. We help guide you through that in this episode !
