102: Contraceptives & Perimenopause

A common 'solution' for the health system to the symptoms of perimenopause, is hormonal contraceptives.  Particularly when it comes to period symptoms such as heavy, painful or irregular periods. In this episode, I talk about why hormonal contraceptives is actually no solution at all and why you should do further investigation and look for alternative solutions. If you're interested to read more about the Hormone Health Academy, you can find out more here. You can also send me an email at wellness@vandghie.com or send me a direct message either on Facebook or on Instagram    Rom 5:1-5: "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; 4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us."
