🩸 YOUR MONTHLY HEALTH CARD
Get to know your cycle cues
Your menstrual cycle is one of your most powerful health signals. Here is what to look out for each month, even before a blood test.
🔴 Spotting more than 2 days before your period
Could point to a sudden drop in progesterone in the luteal phase.
🟣 Luteal phase shorter than 11 days
Progesterone may be dropping too quickly, worth investigating further.
🟢 Cycle shorter than 21 or longer than 35 days
Can be an alarm bell that something is shifting hormonally and may need further investigation.
🟡 Bleeding for more than 7 days
Prolonged bleeding may require more attention and a closer look at your hormonal picture.
🔴 Heavy bleeding
Could indicate too much oestrogen in the previous cycle, leading to a thicker uterine lining.
🟠 Large clots during your period
Can be a sign of oestrogen dominance. The body may not have had enough progesterone to balance it out.
🤍 Cervical mucus for 5 to 6 days, shifting from moist to clear, lubricative and stretchy
This is a beautiful sign of adequate oestrogen rising before ovulation. It means your body is doing exactly what it should in the lead up to your fertile window and ovulation
These are cues, not diagnoses. If any of these feel familiar, they are a great starting point for a conversation with your healthcare provider.
