One of the best things that we can do as women is arm ourselves with knowledge about how our bodies and fertility work. When we have this wisdom we can make informed decisions about our health, advocate for ourselves and communicate effectively to those around us. Did you know this fun fact? #fertility #birthcontrol #informedconsent #knowyouknow #womenshealth

Let’s break this down a little, because the bad wrap that natural family planning gets is no joke! The Symptothermal Method of FAM is highly effective at avoiding pregnancy naturally. Yes, it takes commitment to learn. Yes, it requires consistency, awareness & responsibility. (like taking a pill every day) Yes, it takes some time to feel confident using it as your primary form of contraception.

#stitch with @Janet Women’s cycles and the hormonal changes through our lives impact our brains. 🧠 But surprise surprise, research done on the brain rarely takes our hormones into consideration. This means that a lot of the literature out there may not be as valid for us as we’d hope. Even though women disproportionally experience many mental health and brain conditions there is severe under funding, lack of research & small sample sizes of the neuroimaging studies. With the research we do have, the way our hormones impact our brains on a daily basis and in the long term are extensive. Let me know if you want me to break down some of the research about how our cycles impact our brains…and thus how we experience and navigate life!👇🏼 #womenshealth #brainhealth #pms #themoreyouknow #womensupportingwomen
