This week on The Periodical Pod, we’re sharing invaluable insights on optimising menstrual health to enhance well-being and vitality. Delving into practical tips for managing common period symptoms, with an emphasis on the importance of understanding one's menstrual cycle and tailoring lifestyle choices accordingly. From addressing heavy bleeding with nourishing foods and holistic practices to navigating PMS through self-expression and strategic support systems, we’ll give you actionable strategies rooted in empathy and holistic wellness. With compassionate guidance on easing period pain and promoting self-care, this episode will give you the tools to embrace your cycles with confidence and empowerment.

Registered acupuncturist, registered Chinese herbal medicine practitioner and women's health advocate Michelle Smith and producer, writer, and mum of three Alex Whittington have partnered to make a women’s health podcast that’s packed full of the topics we all should have been taught but never were. 

We’re your, big sisters, for periods, and we’re diving deep into until-now taboo topics such as periods, hormones, mental health, fertility, sex, menopause, and the entire spectrum of women’s health. 

In this podcast there’s no such thing as too much information, we’re not holding anything back and covering the topics you might be too embarrassed to ask about. Expect epic guests including experts in women’s health and people with lived experience. 

We want to empower women with education and create an opportunity to share real-life stories that will make you laugh and cry.
