Episode Synopsis

In this episode of The Mother Birth Podcast, we’re chatting about ACOG’s recent Instagram post claiming that skipping your period is “safe and normal.” Julia and Kate share why this message feels off and how it adds to the idea that periods are just a hassle to get rid of. We dive into why periods are actually a vital sign of health and how the pill is often used to mask symptoms rather than address the root cause. We talk about why it’s time to stop seeing our cycles as something to fix and start understanding what they’re telling us about our bodies.Connect with Julia:⁠https://www.instagram.com/mother.birth.doula/⁠Connect with Kate:⁠https://www.instagram.com/kindacrunchydoula/⁠
