Manage episode 482804120 series 3607270
This Podcast episode is brought to you by Nicola Smith, from the Breaking Your Cycle Summit 🩸
Have you ever wondered why, even when you do everything “right” for your period, you still experience symptoms like PMS, PCOS, PMDD, heavy bleeding, or irregular cycles? Have you noticed that these hormonal issues often come with digestive symptoms too?
That’s because your gut and your menstrual health are deeply connected. Research shows that gut health plays a major role in the development and severity of conditions like PCOS, PMS, PMDD, and other period-related symptoms.
In this episode, I explore the powerful link between your gut and your menstrual cycle. I’ll also walk you through a step-by-step framework to start supporting your gut—and, in turn, help heal your period problems.
💡 Here’s what you will learn:
- Why is the gut so central to menstrual health
- In what ways does the gut link to menstrual and period health?
- Does the gut health impact ovulation at all?
- What are the 3 cycles our body goes through?
- What can we do to support our gut, to support our period and menstrual health in general?
📕 🖊️ Tracking your cycle will help you overcome period irregularities such as PMS, PCOS, and heavy or painful periods. Your cycle is a mirror of own health and a powerful diagnostic tool.

//ABOUT ME
Hey, I'm Rocsi 👋 I am a Period Recovery Nutritionist who focuses on nutrition to support and heal period problems.
In my early twenties, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune thyroid condition, a 16cm cyst on my left ovary, and a pituitary tumour. After years of learning, one too many courses & dozens of books & articles, I compiled the strategy that helped me heal into a simplified approach: nutrition at the core of healing period and gut problems.
I am honoured to be able to share this information with you and be a part of your healing.
