At some point you’ve likely experienced the uncomfortable, and sometimes excruciating, effects of sunburn. These symptoms often appear within a few hours after prolonged or intense exposure and may include inflamed skin, pain, tenderness, itching, or swelling.

While your body is fully equipped to heal these burns, there are many natural remedies to soothe irritated skin and support your body in this healing and regeneration.

Learn more about natural remedies for healing your sunburn though my blog article link in bio.

Keep it Whole and Real when focussing on reproductive health! Follow these guidelines for balancing your plate at each meal:

1. Prioritize protein: Include with every meal seafood, poultry, dark meats, eggs, legumes, or whole dairy

2. Add lots of veg: greens…all the veggies!

3. Include natural fats: In moderation, enjoy nuts, seeds, avocado, olives, coconut, or butter

4. Enjoy wholesome carbs: Focus on whole grains that you can cook at home such as rice, oats, quinoa, or homemade sourdough. This also includes potatoes, other root veggies, and fruits.

The small choices you make every day add up. Choose to nourish your body with every meal!

Stronger nails, fuller hair, clearer skin… it’s not just about what you put on your body, it’s about what’s happening inside it.

If you’re noticing breakage, thinning, or dull skin, start by looking at the basics. Are you getting enough protein and healthy fats? Are you actually digesting and absorbing those nutrients? Are inflammatory foods like sugar and processed oils getting in the way?

When your body has what it needs, it shows. Hair grows stronger, nails stop breaking, and skin starts to clear from the inside out.

Have you lived with period problems that you just thought were normal? I find that many women are not sure what to expect from a normal, healthy cycle.

Your cycle should be:
*Monthly
*Require no pain medication
*Minimal to mild PMS or fatigue
*No more than 5-7 days of bleeding, never requiring you to stay home or miss out on work/school because of heavy bleeding.

Three major hormone systems may be contributing to your period problems: thyroid hormones, adrenal hormones, and s*x hormones. These systems all communicate with one another and imbalance in one area can lead to imbalance in another.

When investigating period problems, I recommend using a holistic approach by investigating all of these hormone systems as well as nutrients needed for reproductive health.

Have you been dealing with cramps for years thinking this was normal? Menstrual cramps might be common but they’re certainly not normal! No one should require pain medication to manage periods month after month.

While mild discomfort when your period begins may be normal, pain that requires medication every cycle or pain that disrupts your work or school day is not.

Detailed menstrual histories and evaluation are important to figure out the underlying causes. Period pain can be complex, but it can be figured out. Know that you do not have to live in pain.

Your period is a bellwether of your overall health.

Yep, every month we’re given a report card full of information on how our endocrine and reproductive systems are functioning. Painful periods, heavy periods, irregular periods, no periods at all?

As the American Congress of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) put it in 2015, our menstrual cycles are our fifth vital sign. Wow! This statement is poetic and provocative. It likens our periods to other vital signs, like blood pressure, that are essential in telling us about our health status.

ACOG is reminding us that having periods and understanding our periods are really important!

So what is your period telling you?

Many brands of tampons and pads contain chemicals that have been linked to reproductive harm.

Women and babies, those commonly exposed to synthetic chemicals and plastics used in commercial pads and diapers, are most at risk.

In an article published March 2019 in Reproductive Toxicology, the author notes, “As sanitary pads are in direct contact with external genitalia for an extended period, there is a probability that a considerable amount of VOCs or phthalates could be absorbed into the reproductive system.”

Phthalates are added to pads to increase the flexibility and durability of plastic liners. However, they have anti-androgenic effects. This means that phthalates in commercial pads and diapers may be disrupting normal androgen hormones in our bodies.

So what’s a girl to do?

*Choose pads and tampons made only from unbleached cotton, preferably organic

*Avoid products with fragrances and plastic liners

*Consider a menstrual cup or disc for a reusable, non-toxic option

*Give cloth pads a try. You’ll be surprised by how comfortable, economical, and easy they are to use!

Not sure if you have PCOS? Here’s when you should seek help:

- You’re going 3 or more months without a period
- You’re having pelvic pain
- You’re noticing irregular periods with other signs like acne or hair loss.
- Your bleeding is very light or heavy

If you’re not having regular, monthly, periods then investigation is warranted.

Comprehensive evaluation including hormone evaluation, nutrient deficiencies, and blood sugar control will give us insight if PCOS might be the culprit.

Ovulation is the most important part of your cycle…It’s the MAIN event!

Let’s think of our cycle as an ovarian cycle, not necessarily a menstrual cycle. Ovulation is HOW we make our reproductive hormones like estrogen and progesterone.

Regular ovulation = Normal hormone production = Regular periods.

So let’s focus less on the bleeding and more on how we can support successful ovulation!

Birth control pills do not fix your PCOS! Let me explain why…

The synthetic hormones in contraceptives trick your brain so that you turn OFF of your own hormone production. Our bodies will not make estrogen. Ovulation will not happen. No progesterone will be produced.

While it might appear that you have regular periods on the pill, there is no period at all…just bleeding triggered by the pill.

To heal your PCOS we need to get you ovulating, not suppress ovulation! And this takes time and effort through nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeting nutritional supplements.
