Episode 31 - In today's episode, we're talking about learning How To Track Your Menstrual Cycle and use it as a guide in understanding your health. Your period is your 5th vital sign and your period is a sign of your overall health. Knowing when you are ovulating, whether to get pregnant or make sure you are producing enough progesterone, is important. Plus, no more waiting around wondering when you're period is coming, and if you're late, then you know to take action. Understanding all of this with the 4 phases of your cycle is an easy and holistic way to be in charge of your own health and take the necessary steps to help balance your hormones and health.

What is a basal body thermometer, and how to use it to track your ovulation and period.
