Did you hear that I only have a few spots left for 1:1 coaching for the rest of the YEAR? (Yes, we're already winding down 2024 what is life?) If you want coaching from me on your hormones this month is your best bet to sign up for 1:1 or group coaching at this link
We're back for round 2 of the birth control and informed consent series and today I'm going to deep dive on the copper IUD. It's the MOST effective form of birth control with only a 0.6% failure rate, and it's not hormonal...but does that mean it doesn't affect hormones at all?
As you may have guessed, anything that you put in your body is going to affect more than just one body system so I'm going through the way the copper IUD works, how it affects your hormones, minerals, liver, and body as a whole, and I'm even talking about how you can support your body if you decide that the copper IUD is the best choice for you.
Birth control is such a personal choice and I would love to help you make an informed decision that fits your needs, so share this episode with a friend who needs to hear it and keep coming back the rest of the month as we talk about different birth control options and how to support your body through birth control use and how to recover/replenish when you're coming off of birth control.
