Here are 4 things you may not know: ⁣

𝟭- 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝟱-𝟲 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲⁣

You’re not fertile all the time! I think this is one of the biggest misconceptions and why so many lean towards the contraceptive pill/copper IUD/mirena etc. and end up shutting down their natural system for long periods of time due to lack of knowledge.⁣

⁣

𝟮- 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝟭 𝗱𝗮𝘆⁣

Yes, you are fertile for 5-6 days prior to your ovulation day, but ovulation only happens on one day! We are not rabbits ladies, we don’t ovulate each time we get turned on 😂⁣

⁣

𝟯- 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗴𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗺!⁣

An algorithm can’t tell you what is happening in your body as each month is different, we are not machines. So by tracking your own ovulation yourself (BBT temp and cervical mucus signs) you can actually assess if and when you have ovulated. ⁣

⁣

𝟰- 𝗢𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆⁣

Ovulation is not just for fertility, its a sign of overall health! If you are not ovulating, something in your system is not running efficiently. ⁣

⁣

We only produce a vital hormone (progesterone) when ovulation has taken place. Every monthly dose of progesterone reduces inflammation, regulates immune function, and supports thyroid, brain, bones, and breast tissue. ⁣
