Episode description

Today we are sitting down with Holly Grigg-Spall, author of Sweetening the Pill and brand ambassador for Daysy Fertility Tracker. This is a must-listen for understanding the difference between fertility trackers, period tracker apps, and forms of contraception. The Daysy allows women to really be in touch with their bodies—not only knowing when you can get pregnant (or not!), but learning about your cycle from a health point of view. We also dig into the topics of body literacy, having open conversations about menstrual cycles, and bringing these topics to our education systems!

 

We Chat About:

  • How to use the Daysy
  • Nina’s experience using the Daysy
  • Research behind the Daysy (30 years of it!)
  • Getting in touch with our bodies and femininity
  • Understanding your fertility window
  • Tracking fertility cycle for pregnancy
  • History of birth control
  • Books on menstrual cycles
  • Females in research studies
