Go With Your Flow gives women what Google can't, and most healthcare providers don't- the power to reclaim their fertility, femininity, and freedom by taking charge of their own health, no questions asked.

What should my period be like? What can I do when things go wrong? And are there better options for me than taking the birth control pill? These are common questions among women; so why do so few of us have reliable answers? With the menstrual cycle's taboo history and the shortcomings of traditional medicine, women are left with few options for addressing period problems beyond a prescription for birth control. The pill, unfortunately, just shuts off the body's hormonal cycles without allowing the chance to truly heal.
For too long, periods have been viewed as "too problematic," "too messy," and "too hormonal" to spend much time worrying about. It's time to think differently about periods and the hormones that regulate them. The female body is resilient, powerful, and wise, and the menstrual cycle follows suit when given the right support.
Through a combination of methods that align lifestyle with the menstrual cycle, science-backed techniques for addressing specific hormonal disorders, the integration of ancient medicine with modern philosophy, and a judgment-free exploration of all the available options, Dr. Alexandra MacKillop puts decision-making back into the hands of readers. Go With Your Flow empowers women with both knowledge and practical treatment strategies to balance their hormones, fix their periods, and feel their best without using the birth control pill.
Written by a functional medicine physician who specializes in female reproductive health, Go with Your Flow validates women's concerns about using the pill to mask symptoms and offers them access to the knowledge they need to really understand what's happening in their bodies every month or not happening, depending on their experiences with their own periods. Ultimately, the text honors a woman's right to choose how to care for her own body. Honest, straightforward, and backed by years of clinical experience, this book empowers readers to make the decision that's best for them based on both scientific evidence and their own individual values.
