Show Notes
In this lively Q&A-style episode, and perhaps the most important conversation to date on the show, I sat down with my lifelong best friend and Masters in applied nutrition Lindsay Huff to do a women's health deep dive. Specifically we discuss:
-what is the menstrual cycle
-what biological actions occur during each phase of the menstrual cycle
-what markers can be used to determine where we are in our cycle
-how these markers can be used to cycle track
-how to use cycle tracking to prevent pregnancy or facilitate conception
-each of our experiences with being on the pill for a decade and what the transition to cycle tracking looked like
-the immense benefits of cycle tracking outside of pregnancy prevention
-how birth control is anti-feminist
...and more.
Please share this episode with every woman in your life, especially the young ones who are not being properly educated on the female body. We deserve better, and that's why we are stepping up to do better on behalf of women.
