In this week's episode, Bonnie is joined by Lisa
Hendrickson-Jack. Lisa is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator
and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner who teaches women to
chart their menstrual cycles for natural birth control, conception,
and monitoring overall health. In her new book The Fifth Vital
Sign, Lisa debunks the myth that regular ovulation is only
important when you want children by recognizing the menstrual cycle
as a vital sign. Drawing heavily from the current scientific
literature, Lisa presents an evidence-based approach to fertility
awareness and menstrual cycle optimization. She hosts the Fertility
Friday Podcast, a weekly radio show devoted to helping women
connect to their fifth vital sign by uncovering the connection
between menstrual cycle health, fertility, and overall health.
They will touch on such topics as:
- Three categories of woman who uses birth control fall into
- Disordered eating and losing your period
- Gut issues and the connection with the pill
- Common side effects of taking the pill
- Recommendations for woman to assume their regular cycle
- Finding the right practitioner to help with your menstrual cycle issues
