On average, people who menstruate will experience 40 years of periods throughout their lives. That’s 40 years of potential symptoms that might interfere with your plans day to day. In recent years, as fitness trackers and wearables have made it easier to track your menstrual cycle, it’s become much easier to avoid high-stress situations or physical exertion on the days you know you’ll be dealing with cramps, fatigue and low energy.
Women are also leading the charge when it comes to biohacking, identifying and treating hormonal symptoms and attempting to heal from autoimmune conditions and illnesses with unique protocols comprising supplements, red light therapy, somatic movement and ice baths.
