Let’s get real — in this episode, I sit down with period expert Vicky Chehade to unpack everything you didn't know you needed to know about your cycle. From cramping to contraception, natural birth control to perimenopause, we’re calling out the confusion, the shame, and the flat-out BS women have been handed for way too long. We’re diving deep into the science of your symptoms — how to actually understand what your body is telling you throughout your cycle, what to really know about fertility and natural birth control options, and how exercise and stress can impact your hormones, especially during perimenopause. If you've ever felt dismissed or overwhelmed trying to “fix” your period issues, this episode will feel like finally being handed the manual we never got.
