Why I became a fertility awareness educator (Part 2: The search for education)
This is the second part of a series, if you have not read part 1 check that out here first. My cycles confused me. It wasn’t a particularly dangerous confusion, I knew enough to know that if I wasn’t sure about something to consider myself fertile. And, oddly, that made me feel much more… Read More
Why I became a fertility awareness educator (Part 1 – Learning fertility awareness)
You may or may not be familiar with my story of starting to use the fertility awareness method. It was a mixture of excitement, amazement, scared-shitlessness, and a lot of appreciation.

How charting your cycles can help with hormonal imbalance
When I first started charting my cycles I wanted to do it purely, 100%, for the natural birth control method it’d provide me. I didn’t want to be on hormones, didn’t want to keep my IUD, and didn’t have any other alternative that I wanted to use, so charting my cycles it was! While I… Read More
The Worst Advice I’ve Ever Heard About Withdrawal
I was pursuing some message boards the other day and someone dared to ask about withdrawal. I say dared to ask because it seems like it was daring, at least from the strong berating they got in the many answers that followed. “Withdrawal doesn’t work, that’s how people get pregnant!” “Wow, what are they teaching… Read More
