If you’re looking for a deeper understanding of the female body, or perhaps an alternative way of addressing reproductive concerns, you’ve come to the right place!
I’ve been passionate about sharing information on women’s reproductive health and ways of managing fertility for a long time. My love for fertility and women’s reproductive health stems from personal experience. I believe that all young women should be taught about their bodies, taught to identify the signs of fertility so that they have the tools and skills needed to avoid pregnancy.
The first time I had sex, I had no understanding of how my body worked. I knew women weren’t fertile all the time. I knew when dogs were in heat they also bled and that they could get pregnant during this time. The first time I had sex it was unprotected and [….]
My goal is to bring this information to as many women as possible. I think that basic fertility awareness methods should be taught to pre-teens or as a rite of passage for young women who have just begun bleeding. I believe women should have access to medically accurate health information. My goal is to empowering women to play an active role in managing their fertility and caring for their health.
Here you’ll find a diverse mixture of topics including reproductive health, understanding our bodies, understanding our menstrual cycles, balancing our hormones, how to manage our fertility and use this information to avoid or achieve pregnancy. I’ll also discuss cervical health giving special attention to cervical dysplasia, sexual health and sex education, contraception, fertility, fertility awareness, sexually transmitted diseases including sexually transmitted viruses like HPV, HSV, chlamydia and much more. I look forward to exploring the realm of women’s mysteries with you and generating dialogue about all of these topics!

What great opportunity for mom to have the “how-to avoid pregnancy” […]
