Your Cycle: Using the Fifth Vital Sign as Birth Control with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack | #81

Season 6 Episode 81 Published 1 year, 7 months ago
Description

Your menstrual cycle is more than just your period. It is a powerful indicator of your overall health and fertility.


In this episode, Dr. Leah sits down with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack, author of The Fifth Vital Sign, to explore how your cycle can be used as a tool for both understanding your body and making informed decisions about pregnancy.


They break down why the menstrual cycle is considered a vital sign, how to track it effectively, and how fertility awareness can be used as a natural method of birth control or to support conception when you are ready.


This conversation also covers the benefits of cycle tracking compared to hormonal birth control, including how to avoid unwanted side effects and better understand your body’s natural rhythms.


If you are looking for a more informed and empowering approach to your reproductive health, this episode will help you see your cycle in a completely new way.
