Episode Description
There is a lack of information, and a stream of myths around women’s menstrual cycles. Understanding how our bodies work, and what the signs are that something is awry is very important, but often ignored in conventional medicine. Women are often prescribed The Pill, being told it will “regulate” their cycles, when in actuality it is just covering up important symptoms that are signals of health and fertility issues. Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is joining Dr. Risk to discuss her book “The Fifth Vital Sign: Master Your Cycles & Optimize Your Fertility.”
