Many women were put on the Pill early in their teen years because of irregular cycles, amenorrhea, painful periods (dysmenorrhea), heavy periods (menorrhagia) or even for issues such as acne or PMS symptoms.
But the Pill doesn’t fix any of the above issues. It shuts down your…
these drugs are killing girls but doctors would rather keep handing them out like candy on Halloween than ask why so many (increasingly younger) females are presenting with crippling menstrual pain
Women have been GASLIT by doctors like this for years, only resulting in depression, health issues, and sometimes even fertility issues down the road.
Women are told to take a bandaid, not address the root cause. They’re told to simply pop a pill or put in an IUD, without being…

Millions of women are now suffering major hormonal imbalances and fertility issues because they take advice from doctors like you.
Your menstrual cycle is a sign of health and vitality! Periods don’t have to be painful.
Women aren’t taught in school that our cycle is a gift.
Instead, we’re told to get on “the pill” to suppress it, without knowing the possible negative side effects:
• increased risk of stroke
• migraines
• weight gain or weight fluctuation
• acne
• mood swings
• insomnia…
Needing 1800 mg of painkillers to function every month isn’t normal.
Your menstrual cycle is a sign of your health. Debilitating periods aren’t natural and a sign that something is wrong with your body.
Women don’t need to try to compete with men.
We have around a 28 day hormonal cycle, whereas men, run on a 24 hour cycle.
Intermittent fasting isn’t good for fertility.
And beauty sleep exists for a reason.
Celebrate your nature. ✨
