66. What they DON'T TELL YOU about The Pill with Leslie Draffin
In today's episode, Menstrual Cycle Coach Leslie Draffin explains some of the big things no one talks about when it comes to hormonal birth control and specifically the pill.
Topics discussed:
- the pill's history (and early problems)
- side effects (known and little known)
- how the pill affects you AFTER you stop taking it.
Please know we are not anti-pill and do not discuss this information to scare you or try to convince you NOT to take the pill. Instead, it is our goal to help you be an informed and empowered individual especially when it comes to hormonal birth control.
If you're feeling called to learn more or stop taking the pill, I have a FREE masterclass all about confidently quitting birth control coming up on May 15th at 5 pm CT. I'll be sharing how I got my period back after coming off the pill and the supplements I suggest for all of my post-pill clients. You can register for the class HERE.
If you're loving this and would love to find out more, I'd love to chat! You can book a free 30 minute cycle check-in with me or message me on Instagram @lesliedraffin or @thelightwithinpodcast to find out about my new group coaching course launching in May.
