Shocking, I know. If you've taken the pill because you want to get rid of acne, lighten or regulate your cycle or do anything EXCEPT prevent pregnancy, you might wanna check out my latest video: what you need to know about the birth control pill.⠀

So many women expect everything to be after they stop the pill, but I see a ton of women in my practice who suffer from<
I’m sharing the best plant based foods for each phase throughout my cycle this month. I’m now on Day 3 of my menstrual phase ❤️ > The menstrual phase can be considered as the “winter” season in your body ❄️ A time to rest, conserve energy and hibernate . It is said to be a time when there is little distinction between intuition and logic, allowing you to gain deep access to your inner wisdom and gut feelings. ✨ The bleeding phase is naturally cleansing (physically and emotionally) so while you may feel raw and sensitive, you are also letting go of what no longer serves you. > If you do not become pregnant, then 12-14 days after ovulation is when the corpus luteum stops making progesterone and will get reabsorbed in your body. This drop in progesterone is what triggers your uterus to contract and you start your bleed. Day One of your period begins on the first day of heavy bleeding. Hormones are now at very low levels which means you have lower energy, your skin is dry and dull, and may appear more red. You may feel more run down than usual but that’s okay because we can’t be “on” at all times! > You want to remineralize and restore your blood with food. The foods above are replenishing and rich in minerals like iron and zinc. Focus on miso soups, broths and stews with sea vegetables. Other foods to focus on include water chestnuts, hazelnuts, wild rice, fennel, chlorophyll, adzuki beans and coconut water. Can’t wait for the new #periodemoji ❤️#hormonebalance
This is the face I make knowing I have confidence in my contraceptive choice!
.
As an obstetrician who loves delivering babies, I have NO PROBLEM with you getting pregnant! But, if this isn't part of your current plan, I always suggest considering some form of contraception.
.
People often ask me what's my favorite, or what do I recommend, and honestly, I don't have one choice over any other. Contraception is not a one size fits all. Some people don't want hormones; others don't want the hassle of having to remember to take any medicines. Several people are completely against the idea of any device being inserted or implanted into their body, and others have medical contraindications to certain forms of birth control.
.
The beauty of contraception today is that there are many options. Yes, every option has side effects, but there are also consequences of not using any contraception. As a woman, the choice is yours!
.
Find out what option is best for you!

No 9 year old (or any minor) should be pregnant by some skeezball Uncle/Grandfather/stranger/etc. that needed to bust a . Absolutely repulsive and disgusting. Also a woman that has been raped should have a choice!! #herbodyherchoice #waronwomen #rapevictims #rapevictimsupport #rapevictim •

Why should women with Pcos be on birth control if they are not trying to get pregnant?!
❤️
You are probably thinking don’t worry, I’m infertile I won’t need to take birth control pills!
❤️
Wrong!
Birth control pills regulate periods and improve excess hair growth and acne by lowering androgen levels and protect the endometrium (inner lining of the uterus) against abnormal cell growth and possible endometrial cancer.
Patients with pcos who don’t have regular periods, their endometrial lining may build up and cause abnormal bleeding and possible lead to cancer... so in order to protect them they should be started on birth control pills. .

velvet pink latte for tonight’s full pink moon I used the adaptogenic velvet latte powder from @popjoy and mixed it with water, almond milk and coconut stevia drops // it’s exactly what I need today! I shared on insta stories that I’m feeling down for no reason other than my hormone fluctuations. I call today a “transition” day because I just ovulated, my estrogen plummeted and my progesterone has not kicked in yet. This means my hormones are at low levels and causing me to feel a certain way. It’s totally normal because the body needs a day or two, to get on with the next phase and during that transition time, you can feel tired, nauseous, down, anxious or have a headache. Knowing this makes me feel better because nothing is actually wrong, I’m just cycling, going with the flow and practicing #bodyliteracy // our hormones influence how we feel every second of everyday! I hope this helps you decipher why you feel certain ways throughout the month! #mooncycle #pinkmoon #hormonehealth
PREACH @GabUnion!!!Birth Control DOES NOT fix your IRREGULAR CYCLE!!! #GabrielleUnion is one of the 60% of women prescribed THE #BIRTHCONTROLPILL for non-contraceptive reasons who suffered #ADENOMYOSIS (endometriosis in the muscle of the uterine walls), #INFERTILITY, #MISCARRIAGES and more. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Like millions of women (disproportionately Black Women), she was put on Birth Control in her 20s to “regulate” her cycles, which included 10+ days, severe bleeding, heavy clotting and excruciating cramping.
In her very transparent @SuperSoul Sunday with @Oprah and hubby @DwyaneWade, she shared how she was “on the pill for 20 years.” While her symptoms seemed to dissipate during that time, they returned just as severe as before when she ceased to take the pill to try to conceive. •
What ensued was a nightmare of INFERTILITY that ravaged her life with over 9+ miscarriages. •
Not every path to motherhood is the same and thankfully, Gabrielle and Dwyane’s case resulted in the arrival of their beautiful #MiracleBaby @KaaviaJames via surrogacy on 11/07/18!!! We celebrate with them and are here to support Gabrielle and women around the world in HEALING their wombs from reproductive issues such as ADENOMYOSIS, #ENDOMETRIOSIS, #FIBROIDS, #PCOS, #CYSTS, INFERTILITY, BREAST #CANCER, #CERVICAL CANCER and so much.
Early diagnosis is good but prevention is best.
HORMONAL IMBALANCE (ESTROGEN DOMINANCE) is the ROOT CAUSE.
HerBalance is our solution for prevention.
Our @HopeBeyondFibroids Elimination Program is "the solution" for reversal.
