Heads up, CYCLES+SEX does not diagnose and should never replace your health care provider. Our hope is to give you information that can help you take power over your body. We value research-backed evidence, clinical experience, AND personal narratives as part of the puzzle pieces when it comes to figuring out our health and wellbeing. By bringing these perspectives together, we are best able to make the choices that most resonate with our own unique bodies, experiences and circumstances. Hell yeah!
