Birth control isn’t going to fix your painful periods 🩸

Hormonal birth control might “get rid” of your painful periods but it’s not fixing your hormonal imbalance.

It’s only suppressing all your body’s natural hormones and unfortunately most doctors don’t make their patients aware of this.

💥 hormonal birth control also depletes your body of important minerals so if you eventually decide to come off of it to get pregnant your body is probably going to have a shortage of important nutrients needed to get pregnant easily.

💫 I prefer using FAM (fertility awareness method) as it’s just as affective as hormonal birth control when used properly. A full guide on the FAM method coming soon!

Note: FAM is best for monogamous relationships, if you’re unsure of your partners sexual health status, you should still use condoms as well just for protection against STDs.

If you have questions about FAM, let’s chat in the comments or shoot me a DM ☺️
