BBT charting is my preferred way of tracking cycles when my patients are trying to conceive.
Thanks for this great explanation of measuring progesterone Lara Briden - The Period RevolutionaryRevolutionary

✨ Your basal body temperature is a built-in progesterone detector. ✨

A great way to assess progesterone is to think in terms of progesterone days — the days you actually make progesterone. More progesterone days mean more of its benefits for your uterine lining, breasts, brain, and immune system. That’s why temperature tracking (BBT charting) is such a great way to assess the duration of your luteal phase and know if you’re making enough progesterone.

You can also measure progesterone with a blood test or at-home urine test, but timing is everything. Your peak progesterone will be mid-luteal — about 7 days after ovulation and 7 days before your next period. That might be “day 21” in a 28-day cycle, but in a shorter or longer cycle, the mid-luteal day shifts, too.

✨ Scared of needles, but curious about acupuncture for fertility? ✨

You’re not alone. Many women who come to see me are hesitant about needles at first — and the good news is, there’s a gentle alternative that can still support your fertility journey: moxibustion (moxa).

Moxa uses the warming properties of the herb Artemisia (mugwort), which is burned near specific acupuncture points. The soothing heat helps to:
🌱 Improve blood flow to the womb
🌱 Nourish energy reserves (Qi)
🌱 Reduce stress and tension
🌱 Support hormonal balance

It’s deeply relaxing, non-invasive, and a beautiful way to connect with your body during your TTC journey.

If needles feel overwhelming, know that there are options. Your path to fertility can be warm, supportive, and tailored to you. 💕

Appointments available Inner Health Centre at Organic Feast on Fridays ❤️

This is so important.

It’s way more than just conceiving a baby.

Even the smallest change can make a big impact

🧡 A clinical trial found that magnesium supplementation significantly improves insulin sensitivity in women with PCOS. Two months of 250 mg resulted in lower insulin levels and better cholesterol profiles.

This matters because insulin resistance is at the heart of PCOS, contributing to symptoms like irregular cycles, weight gain, and inflammation. Magnesium, already one of my favourite supplements for nervous system and hormonal support, now has even more evidence behind it for PCOS.
