For many of us, our period can feel a dreaded time of the month and I’ve been there. For 15 years, I felt totally disconnected from my cycle (thanks, hormonal birth control and lack of education) and struggled with horribly painful periods.
In this episode, I’m breaking down what’s normal (and what’s not) when it comes to your period. I’ll also cover the causes of heavy, painful bleeding, the role of prostaglandins, natural ways to ease cramps, my go-to period pain remedies, and more.
While my period isn’t perfect now, it no longer leaves me bedridden and PMS is a thing of the past. Wherever you are on your cycle journey, I hope this episode helps you feel more informed, empowered, and connected to your body.
