- Alternative Health
I can’t wait for you to dive into this super quick episode about tracking your period! Are you PAYING ATTENTION to your period?
Do you know the answers to these questions?:
WHEN does it come?
For HOW MANY days?
What COLOR is it?
Is it HEAVY?
Is it LIGHT?
Are there blood CLOTS?
Is it CONSISTENT?
Your period is your monthly REPORT CARD. It’s our 5th VITAL SIGN. A PHYSICAL sign of your INTERNAL & OVERALL health. I NEVER payed attention to my period because I had NO IDEA WHY it mattered! It wasn’t even something I consciously thought about it! If I got my period okay I got it. If I didn’t, I didn’t.
I NEVER kept track of it. I NEVER thought I NEEDED to. I never knew ANYTHING about it because I was never TAUGHT anything about it!
If we’re having IRREGULAR cycles, PAINFUL periods, HEAVY periods, NO PERIODS, etc. THAT’S our body’s way of TELLING US there’s an UNDERLYING issue that NEEDS to be UNCOVERED & ADDRESSED!
The 1st step is PAYING ATTENTION to your period.
STEPS TO TAKE GOING FORWARD:
Get a tracker app (I use myFLO)Count how many days it isNOTICE the SYMPTOMS you get, NOTICE the COLOR & the CONSISTENCY.DAY 1 IS THE FIRST DAY OF BLEEDING. A regular period is anywhere from 21-35 days.What’s important is that it’s always the same give or take a couple days.
IF I knew that OVULATING was CRUCIAL to my OVERALL HEALTH, METABOLISM, THYROID, BONES, SKIN, HAIR, STRESS RESPONSE, I would’ve paid more attention & given more WEIGHT to the fact that I wasn’t getting a period at all for 2 full years! It wasn’t a PRIORITY because I wasn’t trying to get pregnant.
I had no idea that OVULATING was CRUCIAL for more than just pregnancy. Learn from MY MISTAKES & start CARING ABOUT & PAYING ATTENTION TO your periods. EVERY MONTH.
Stay tuned for the next episode about WHY OVULATING is SO IMPORTANT EVEN IF YOU DON’T WANT TO GET PREGNANT & how to TRACK YOUR OVULATION!
