Woven Well: Natural Fertility Podcast

• Ep. 182: Why are women still complaining about birth control??

  Why do women seem to be so fed up with birth control? I mean, they should just be grateful not to be pregnant, right? Wrong. Recently, a client sent me an article where researchers question the experience of women on birth control and I just had to respond. Maybe your own side effects and experiences have been doubted? Maybe you've been told it's all in your head? Well, that is unacceptable and today's episode dives into why. In this episode we talk about: Birth control aspects that women most often complain aboutWhat some medical professionals say about birth control Misinformation about birth control and natural birth control optionsFemale empowerment and informed decision making What the surge of fertility awareness methods suggests about womenThe power of the female community NOTE: This episode may not be appropriate for all audiences due to references to libido, condoms, etc. Resources: Referenced NPR articleRestorative Reproductive Medicine AcademyBegin your own confident fertility awareness journeySubstack article: Yes, why DO women keep saying birth control has side effects? Research: https://www.bmj.com/content/388/bmj-2024-082801.longhttps://khn.org/news/large-danish-study-links-contraceptive-use-to-risk-of-depression/https://naturalwomanhood.org/new-shocking-reasons-hormonal-contraceptives-tank-womens-sex-drive/https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S001078242200213X#:~:text=The%20clinical%20trial%20used%20to,peak%20mucus%20as%20a%20surrogate.Send us a textSupport the showOther great ways to connect with Woven Natural Fertility Care: Learn the Creighton Model System with us!

• Ep. 178: Dealing with PCOS as a single woman, with Jen

  Single ladies with menstrual cycle issues aren’t given much time and attention. “If you’re not trying to get pregnant, it’s not worth treating.” This is what Jen heard when she complained of long, irregular cycles and frustrating symptoms. She suspected PCOS, but getting a good diagnosis and treatment was harder than she thought. She believed she deserved excellent care NOW before she was ready to conceive and so she went in search of it. Jen shares her story of the transforming power of using cycle tracking to get to the next level of fertility education and women’s healthcare advocacy. I love her story and openness and I know you will, too! NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.Guest Bio: Born and raised in Kansas City, Jen is a lifelong Catholic and proud University of Kansas alum—yes, she love the Chiefs and believes KC BBQ is the best in the world. Now living in Nashville, Jen is enjoying the warmer weather and the slower pace of life in the South.Helpful links and related podcast episodes:Ep. 19: PCOS 101Ep. 87: What about single women? with FCP Intern, Elizabeth RandallEp. 152: Do PCOS cycles work with fertility awareness methods?Fiat Integrative Health, Franklin, TNAttend an Intro Session with Woven Natural Fertility CareSend us a textSupport the showOther great ways to connect with Woven Natural Fertility Care: Learn the Creighton Model System with us!
