E205: 4 Things Your Doctor Should Have Taught You About Your Hormones - DAY 1 Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp

Welcome to Day 1 of the Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp. This episode is an overview of how hormones work throughout your menstrual cycle - TBH you should have learned this a LONG time ago, in middle school or at least at your first OBGYN appointment.

I’m going deep into common symptoms seen at different cycle phases, like increased libido and cervical fluid around ovulation, or how symptoms like PMS, cramps, and mood changes can indicate hormone imbalance – and how we can handle that naturally, aka without birth control. If you're not a newbie to this you could still learn something so stick around for a crash course refresher.

Tomorrow's episode will be about how stress affects sex hormones and ways to reduce stress for long-term hormone balance - even if you don't FEEL stressed you're not going to want to miss that one because it's KEY when balancing hormones!
