Non Hormonal Birth Control Options

What form of birth control should you be using if you’re not going to use a birth control pill? This is a question that I get a lot and one that I’m going to dive into in this episode. If this is something that you’ve been wanting to know, tune in and learn what non-hormonal birth control options are out there for you.

You can find all the info and links about this episode at https://holisticwellness.ca/episode81.

Topics Discussed in this Episode:

• The symptoms that you experience when you’re on the pill
• Your non-hormonal birth control options

Key Takeaways:

• Using the birth control pill causes a lot of nutrient depletion like zinc, magnesium, vitamin C and the B vitamins -- all things that are so important and needed for supporting your hormones, your cycle, and your overall health.
• All forms of hormonal contraceptives can increase your risk of cancer.
• When it comes to natural forms of birth control, the number one is to do natural family planning.
• Even if you have a very irregular cycle, you can still do natural family planning. It’s going to provide you with so much data and information about your body.
• The Copper IUD can deplete your body’s ability to absorb zinc, so if you’re going to use it, it’s recommended that you supplement with zinc

Action Steps:

• Be conscious of the synthetic hormones that you are putting into your body.
• Consider doing natural family planning.
• Use the barrier method.

“As we age, our hormones do decline. And so it’s really important to integrate some important protocols and strategies and a lot of self-care so we can age gracefully and we can have a lot of ease around our cycles and as we head into menopause.”

“If you know you want to be a mom in the future, use condoms today because it’s really one of the best ways to protect your reproductive organs and keep them healthy…”
