Run through of menstrual cycles (uterine, ovarian, & hormonal perspectives), basic information on fertility awareness and self examination, overview and discussion of conception and contraception/abortion methods (both traditional and less common/herbal methods), and even a little on "alternative"/non-commercial options to care for menstrual needs. I will provide lots of useful information however I am not an expert nor a doctor/medical professional. I am just someone who's interested and passionate about people learning about how our bodies work. Also, keep in mind we will be talking about methods to avoid and terminate pregnancy, so beware if you are offended or disturbed by this. I would love for you to contribute to this discussion! Let's help eachother learn and empoower ourselves by taking control of our own bodies and reproductive health! This will be a safe space for everyone.
