Menstrual Readings
☾
Difficult period?
Having a challenging period is one of the most common complaints I hear in my practice.
The body has subtle (and not so subtle) ways of letting us know things are off balance. While it is more common than not to have a period full of pain and discomfort in today’s modern world, it is often a sign to take a deeper look at what may be going on.
Most of the time, when we bring these symptoms up to a primary care provider, the only tool they have to offer is to prescribe birth control. While hormonal birth control has its place, it also only masks symptoms without addressing why these issues appeared in the first place. It’s incredibly common to see people on birth control for years and years, masking the underlying issue as it potentially gets worse, only to be diagnosed later down the road with more chronic issues. I am not here to shame anyone for choosing hormonal birth control. I am here, however, to help address the root cause of imbalance, which often leads to a more balanced hormonal picture, and an easier menses.
