Are You Drinking Estrogen?
Estrogen Dominance is a bit of a catch phrase in the world of women's health and fertility right now. This is because many women suffer from symptoms of Estrogen Dominance, and/or they have been diagnosed with it. In her previous blog on Estrogen Dominance , Daria discussed what Estrogen Dominance is and how to navigate it so I highly suggest you read that blog as well. Today, I want to dive further into Estrogen Dominance and chat about environmental estrogens. No, estrogen

Why I teach Creighton as an RN
I started to share my story a couple weeks ago. I want to share more how I started teaching Creighton as a Registered Nurse. After I started teaching the introduction to NFP, I started reading more about the different methods . I loved that the Creighton model is based in so much research and that it works with doctors to help women through a variety of health concerns, not just planning and avoiding pregnancy . My husband and I started talking about how we would afford tra

Can you use NFP with a ‘contraceptive mindset’ or ‘contraceptively’?
This is a question I get all so often, most especially in the Catholic world. In case you aren’t familiar, normally when people ask me if Natural Family Planning can be used with a ‘ contraceptive mindset ’ or ‘contraceptively,’ what they’re really asking is if NFP can be used with bad intentions. Or, if NFP can be used faithfully by a Catholic to avoid a pregnancy. Sometimes I get asked by people with a half raised skeptical eyebrow, others with a curiosity of how NFP actual

There's a Supplement for That?
Pills in a cup I'm a little granola crunchy. Ok. I lie. I'm a lot of granola crunchy . Western medicine has failed me so many times that I could dedicate an entire website to it. But Western medicine is the reason my son is alive and I'm a HUGE fan of NaPRO Technology , so I'm not anti-Western medicine. I just tend towards going a natural route first. I completely understand why women turn to dietary changes (for the record I am 100% on board with that) and supplements to cu
