Podcast: Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey
Published On: Wed Jun 11 2025
Description: Today, we sit down with naturopathic doctor Lara Briden to discuss all things women's health. We talk about the different phases of a woman's menstrual cycle and why hormonal birth control doesn't actually "regulate the period" despite what doctors may say. Dr. Briden also tells us about the difference between artificial hormones and the natural ones produced during a woman's cycle and just how dangerous these artificial hormones can be. And she shares some tips for women struggling with period pain or irregular cycles and what they can do to improve their health.
