Product Information

There’s no progesterone if you’re on almost any type of hormonal birth control because contraceptive drugs suppress ovulation and progestins are not progesterone.

For me, much of this didn't apply, but it was interesting to read up on what could help, in that situation. Obviously, in the most severe situation, surgical intervention is probably the only option, and it tends to be the last option that a woman has. There is no accurate way to test for magnesium deficiency. A serum test is not helpful because most magnesium is inside the cells. A test for red cell magnesium is a bit better but still not very accurate. If her pain does not improve with dairy-free, magnesium, and zinc, then there’s something more going on than just standard period pain. Please see my post “When pain isn’t normal”. https://blog.kindara.com/blog/when-period-pain-isnt-normalI am going to guess that this will probably be one of the most formative books I ever read in my life. I don’t know that it’s necessarily the best book out there on the topic, but because it’s the first one for me (you better believe I have like 8 more on hold at the library) it’s the one that is going to shift my thinking the most.

Having a healthy corpus luteum is the only way to make progesterone. I truly believe as a society we have been gaslit into thinking that hormonal birth control is a feminist concept, but what would ACTUALLY be feminist is learning about the female body and teaching folks with a female reproductive system how to properly take care of it, and maybe, just maybe, doing some research into male birth control (as I understand the technology very much exists but funding for clinical trials and approval does not).

Which is typically never the case.
