Psssssst: the stuff in your underwear tells you a whole lot more about when you’re ovulating than your period tracker… SORRY NOT SORRY!! Cervical mucus = the goat because it is the only biomarker that actually opens your fertile window. It is your body's real-time fertility sign, constantly c

The rhythm method is not the same thing as charting your cycle + observing your fertile signs!! I swear.. if I had a nickel every time someone said “I got pregnant using FAM because I ovulated late” or “this only works if you have perfect cycles” … I’d have a lot of nickels to buy a new basal

let me spill the tea: 1. I never relied on a period tracker’s algorithm to tell me when I was fertile or not. They are historically inaccurate and instead tracked my own ovulation signs. 2. Instead of tracking ovulation, I CHART ovulation using an evidence based fam method. Tracking is fine f

hey bestie I know you are trying to NOT get pregnant without being on birth control, but I’m low key scared for you!!! If you want to avoid pregnancy, you can’t just be doing things Willy nilly- YOU NEED A FAM METHOD. - checking an app isn’t a method. Most predictive apps are horribly incorre

tracking your cycle or using the calendar method is NOT the same thing as using a symptothermal fertility awareness method. Just because you are tracking your cycle does NOT mean you are practicing FAM for birth control. EVEN if you’re tracking mucus and bbt… does not mean you are using FAM

“I can tell when I'm ovulating” … mmmm it’s more complex that that! And I get why this one feels true. Your body is responding to hormone shifts in real time → your mucus changes, your energy might go up, you might feel more confident, maybe even feel ovulation pain but none of that actually tel

not to brag but I can’t remember the last time I had a late period, and it has NOTHING to do with my cycle being regular. No matter if I have a 25 or 38 day cycle - I know exactly when my period is going to come because I track ovulation. Once you ovulate, your period comes 10-16 days later. So

heyyyyyy so testosterone levels are not at their highest during our period and we aren’t “acting like men” - I know we all want a lil micro act of feminism but this one is NOT it because it is quite literally misinformation 🫠

and it IS that serious. Even medical textbooks continue to overlook cervical mucus’ role in reproduction which continues to perpetuate the gendered idea that sp3rm are active soldiers and our bodies are passive. The female reproductive system is incredibly complex and intelligent and we need to

my friend has had a hard pregnancy and I would LOVE to make it easy for her to get nourished… so what recipes, types of meals, foods did you love to eat post partum?

it is time to re-imagine the menstrual cycle! Your cycle isn’t just from the first day of your period until your next period. Your cycle is full hormonal process that starts day 1 of your period and completes around 14 days after ovulation. It should really be called the ovulation cycle. Bec

Girl to girl... if you want to use your cycle as birth control, here are some hard truths you need to hear: → Tracking your cycle isn't the same thing as using a fertility awareness method. A shocking number of people think they're using FAM when they're really just collecting data. → If you

being a fertility awareness educator who teaches you how to avoid pregnancy naturally means that we ARE going to get tmi (no such thing) and I will ask you to describe things like: what your cervical mucus looks like, feels like and how much it stretches!!!

and you will probably end up thinking that cervical mucus is one of the coolest parts of the human body after spending years thinking it was “gross”. SORRY NOT SORRY!! Cervical mucus = the goat because it is the only biomarker that actually opens your fertile window. It is your body's real-t

you were taught the two options for not getting pregnant were 1) go on birth control for the rest of your menstruating days or 2) rely on luck + “track your cycle” .... but what if I told you were was a 3rd option aka: learning a Fertility Awareness Method At its core, FAM is based on th

as a certified candy FREAK who also cares about hormone health / wellness… I am completely over wellness culture insisting we eliminate entire food groups 🍬 there are few joys left in the world (gestures vaguely at the state of everything) and you can pry sour candy from my cold dead hands. s

hop in: we’re having a nuanced conversation about menstrual health, cycle syncing and body literacy!!! * not all cycle syncing / cyclical living advice is alt-right and I do think that the rise in cycle syncing has brought a lot of awareness to menstrual health (which is a good thing)! TLDR:
