My Story

I know how you feel!  My birth control journey started when I was 12 years old. I was rushed into emergency surgery to have one of my ovaries removed due to a ruptured cyst. To say that this was a huge turning point at 12 years old is an understatement!

 

After my surgery, all of the Dr.’s and Specialists that I saw determined that the answer to balancing my hormones was to put me on the birth control pill. Once I started the pill, the doctors told me that the only option I had to keep my hormones in check (and not rupture my other ovary!) was to stay on the pill for life. I didn’t know any better so I stayed on it despite all of the mood changes, terrible PMS, blindingly painful cramps, breast tenderness and headaches that I was experiencing.

 

After being on birth control for about 12 years and suffering through all of the unbearable side effects, I decided I had to make a change. So, I started researching and learning about all the side effects of birth control (and the pill in particular) and made the tough decision to come off of the pill. I knew that I had to prepare my body as much as I could before coming off, by doing my best to balance my hormones through diet, lifestyle and supplements.

​

I read all the books, listened to all the podcasts, went to multiple natural health practitioners, and even became a Certified Nutritionist myself! I can now happily say it’s been over 4 years since I’ve been off of the birth control pill, and I feel amazing. I have more energy, I feel happier, my skin looks more vibrant, my period comes at the same time every month and I don’t have terrible cramps anymore.

 

This is why I work with women just like you, so you don’t have to suffer like I did for so many years.  There is another way!
