Hypermobility and period issues often go hand-in-hand😫🩸

In this episode you'll learn:

  • Why not all bleeds are periods! (and what this might mean for your health)

  • Why learning to chart your cycle using the Symptothermal Method can give you valuable insight into what's going on INSIDE your body

  • How to chart 2 key biomarkers

and finally,

  • why the corpus luteum might be the coolest tissue in the human body that you don't know about!

💝 for 10% off a TempDrop thermometer use my code: https://tempdrop.refr.cc/hypermobilityhq

(this kind of thermometer is not necessary for charting, but it's super helpful for people with irregular sleep schedules or who just want a device that makes things a bit less effort)

THINGS I MENTION📝

🔴 The Guardian article discussing how period pain issues are dismissed by healthcare providers

And a GIANT Thank You to Everyone Who Has Left a Review + Subscribed💙

I genuinely cannot believe how many reviews we have on here❤️. Seriously, there are more reviews for this little podcast than there are for podcasts run by influencers with MILLIONS of subscribers on various social media platforms. It's wild, and the only reason why I can think of as to why this has happened is because of this WONDERFUL community and your support for which I am so, so grateful🙏

At the time of me writing this, we're at FIFTY-SIX (!!!!!!!!) reviews🤩

Can we get to 💯 before my birthday on January 16th? Stay tuned!👀

And make sure you're subscribed to this podcast to automatically receive your brand new episodes (for the foreseeable future a new episode will be released every other week, although there will be some changes coming in 2024 that I can't wait to share with you!).

Wishing you the best in health and everything else,
