OVER 100 MILLION WOMEN ARE ON THE BIRTH CONTROL PILL!

That is a lot!

But when chatting with women 1:1 I realized that they had NO idea how it affected their natural hormone production, how their body functions, how they feel AND how it affected their menopausal transition!

In this episode I had the wonderful Coach Brittany on to help us unpack the following:

- What exactly IS birth control?

-How does birth control work?

- Different types of birth control

- How it works for symptom management

- How it affects our hormone production

- How it affects our thyroid and adrenals

- How it affects our gut health and liver

- AND A WHOLE LOT MORE!

There will be a part 2 and 3 coming out in the future because we honestly could NOT fit everything into one episode!
