Just because you’re bleeding doesn’t mean your cycle is healthy—or that your body is ready for pregnancy.
In this episode, I’m walking you through the five most common red flags I see in women who have gotten their period back but are still struggling to get pregnant. This is especially relevant for the 40% of our clients who come to us already cycling but still facing hidden hormone imbalances, cycle irregularities, or subclinical signs of under-fueling and stress.
If you've worked hard to restore your period but are still facing frustrating fertility setbacks, this episode is going to help you understand what your body is trying to tell you.
We’ll cover:
What an irregular cycle really means (and why it may be anovulatory)
The most overlooked signs of weak ovulation
Why a short luteal phase matters (and how it's connected to under-fueling and stress)
What your bleed quality can reveal about hormone balance
Why periods sometimes disappear again—and what to do about it
You'll also learn how we help clients inside the Food Freedom Fertility Society move from “just cycling” to thriving hormonally with regular ovulation, balanced hormones, and cycles that are truly ready to support pregnancy.
Whether your period just came back or you’re still dealing with short cycles, no ovulation, or low progesterone—this episode will help you connect the dots.
