CONTRACEPTIVE OPTIONS – NON-HORMONAL. Non-hormonal contraceptives prevent pregnancy by using physical or chemical barriers to block sperm from reaching an egg, ideal for those avoiding hormones. Common Methods: • Copper IUD (e.g., Paragard): Copper coil that prevents sperm mobility; effective for up to 10 years. • Male/Female Condoms: Barriers that prevent sperm entry and offer STI protection. • Diaphragm and Cervical Cap: Inserted into the vagina and used with spermicide. • Spermicide: Chemicals in gels or creams that kill sperm. • Fertility Awareness Method (FAM): Tracking menstrual cycles to avoid fertile days. • Withdrawal: Male partner withdraws before ejaculation; less reliable. • Sterilization: Permanent procedures, like tubal ligation or vasectomy. PROS: No hormonal side effects, generally reversible (except sterilization), and some protect against STIs. CONS: Generally less effective than hormonal options when not used perfectly; some methods (like FAM, withdrawal) need …

CONTRACEPTIVE OPTIONS – HORMONAL. Hormonal contraceptives prevent pregnancy by using synthetic hormones (estrogen and/or progestin) to stop ovulation, thicken cervical mucus, or thin the uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach an egg or for an egg to implant. Common Methods: • Birth Control Pills: Daily pills containing estrogen and progestin, or progestin-only. • Birth Control Patch: Worn on the skin; replaced weekly. • Vaginal Ring: Inserted in the vagina and replaced monthly. • Hormonal Injections (e.g., Depo-Provera): Injection every three months. • Implants (e.g., Nexplanon): Small rod under the skin, effective for three years. • Hormonal IUDs (e.g., Mirena): T-shaped device in the uterus, effective for 3-7 years. PROS: Highly effective with correct use, can regulate periods, reduce cramps, and treat acne. CONS: Possible side effects like mood changes, weight gain, and headaches; not suitable for people with certain health conditions (e.g., blood clotting issues).

Here’s a quick guide to menstrual products: Pads: Disposable absorbent sheets that stick to underwear. Easy to use and widely available, but can feel bulky and aren’t eco-friendly. Sustainable option: Reusable cloth pads. Tampons: Inserted into the vagina, tampons offer more freedom for physical activity. However, they carry a risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) if not changed regularly. Sustainable option: Organic cotton or biodegradable tampons. Menstrual Cups: Flexible silicone or rubber cups that collect rather than absorb fluid. Cups are cost-effective, eco-friendly, and can last up to 10 years. Period Underwear: Designed with absorbent layers to hold fluid. Comfortable and reusable, though initial costs can be high. Reusable Sea Sponges: Natural, eco-friendly tampons. Require cleaning and offer limited absorbency.

Irregular menstrual cycles can arise from various causes: 1. Hormonal Imbalances (e.g., PCOS, thyroid issues) can cause extended cycle gaps or unpredictable periods. 2. Stress affects the hypothalamus, leading to missed or delayed periods and mood changes. 3. Weight Fluctuations impact estrogen, causing skipped periods or changes in PMS. 4. Exercise Intensity (especially low body fat) can lead to lighter or missed periods. 5. Birth Control/Medications (e.g., hormonal birth control, antidepressants) may cause spotting or prolonged bleeding. 6. Chronic Conditions like diabetes and autoimmune disorders can disrupt cycles, causing irregular bleeding. 7. Perimenopause/Menopause leads to fluctuating cycles and hot flashes. When to Seek Help: Persistent irregularity, severe pain, sudden weight change, signs of hormone imbalance, or infection signs like fever.

Here are pain management tips for periods: 1. Heat Therapy Apply a heating pad or hot water bottle to your lower abdomen to relax muscles and reduce cramps. A warm bath or herbal teas can also help relieve tension. 2. Exercise Light cardio like walking or cycling boosts blood flow, easing cramps. Gentle yoga poses like Child’s Pose and deep breathing help relax muscles and relieve stress. 3. Dietary Options Anti-inflammatory foods rich in omega-3s (e.g., salmon, flaxseeds) reduce inflammation. Magnesium-rich foods like bananas and almonds ease cramps. Staying hydrated helps reduce bloating and pain intensity.

Tracking your cycle can help you maintain better reproductive health and spot changes early! However, many women, both young and adult, still don't fully understand or know how to track their menstrual cycle — I used to be part of this group. I hope you find this useful. Like, Mirror, Phave and Comment. Enjoy Frens! 💜 @fkaycollectionz @investorawesum @cryptofixpro @harbiegael @alitiknazoglu

Understanding the Menstrual Cycle: The first day of your menstrual period (when you see blood) is considered Day 1 of your cycle. Cycle Length: The average menstrual cycle lasts about 28 days but can range from 21 to 35 days. It varies for every woman. End of the Cycle: The last day of your cycle is the day before your next period starts. COMING UP NEXT IS HOW TO COUNT YOUR CYCLE 💜 @fkaycollectionz @julesofhertime.eth @nonye.eth @doncurrent @investorawesum @cryptofixpro
