Today I’m speaking with a fertility care practitioner! Your menstrual cycle is considered your 5th vital sign. She shared that not only is it good to track your cycle to know when you’re ovulating, but to also look at it as an indicator for your health. Irregular periods are one sign but not the only sign of an imbalance or something going on with your body. She also talks about birth control and natural family planning. We also go over menopause and her opinion on getting “fixed” for either male or females after studying this topic. I learned a lot in this episode and am starting to track my own cycle to understand my health better as well!
