Summary:

In this episode of Her Health Podcast, I discuss the birth control pill and the importance of informed consent. I emphasize that while birth control can be a useful tool, it is often prescribed without informing women about the side effects and how it actually works. I highlight that the pill is not a solution to underlying health issues and can mask symptoms rather than addressing the root cause. I also discuss how the pill affects ovulation, mood, gut health, nutrient depletion, and libido. I encourage women to have access to information and alternative options for birth control.

WHO AM I?

My name is Eliana and I am a Holistic Nutritionist specializing in women's health, hormones, fertility and menstrual health.

In my practice, I work closely with individuals to balance their hormones, manage PCOS, enhance fertility, and smoothly transition off birth control using natural methods such as nutrition, lifestyle changes, and supplements.

I embarked on this journey because I desperately needed someone to guide me through my hormonal issues when I had no idea where to start and no one to turn to, other than conventional medication, which I wanted to avoid.

I'm thrilled to share my story and insights with you today.

Her Health Podcast will feature a mix of solo episodes and in-depth interviews with experts in the filed with the goal of bringing inspiration and knowledge to you.
