This week, we’re continuing to raise awareness on the importance of fertility awareness-based methods of family planning. For too long, women have been told, not only by doctors, but also through commercials, schools, and other platforms, that the only option for their hormone issues are hormonal birth control.
But, often, hormonal birth control only serves to cover up symptoms. As a result, many women never find a long-term solution to diseases like endometriosis or even problems like acne. This week, we talked with Mary G. Bruno about her experience fighting endometriosis. She provides invaluable insight into how to advocate for your own health, find a doctor who desires to treat fertility issues without prescribing birth control, and even how to cope with the long-term effects of fertility diseases.
