@nourishingapothecary: Imagine your first pain free period. When you’ve lived with painful periods for years, it can be difficult to comprehend just how much they’ve been affecting your life until something changes. I remember a client telling me she’d had a pain free period. To me, that was a fantastic clinical improvement. To her, it was genuinely life altering. That distinction matters. Severe period pain, heavy bleeding and debilitating premenstrual symptoms can become so familiar that women begin to accept them as simply part of having a menstrual cycle. They may be common. That doesn’t mean they should automatically be dismissed. In Episode 3 of Season 2 of Inside the Apothecary, Mel and I talk about painful periods, menstrual symptoms, what we’ve been taught to accept as “normal”, and why your menstrual cycle can give us valuable information about your health. Episode 3 is available now. Search Inside the Apothecary wherever you listen to podcasts. If you’re looking for personalised naturopathic support, Nourishing Apothecary offers consultations in Sydney and Australia wide via Zoom. You can also use our Find the Right Practitioner service to be matched with the practitioner best suited to you. www.nourishingapothecary.com #PeriodPain #PainfulPeriods #WomensHealth #HormoneHealth #MenstrualHealth
