🤰Pregnancy comes with a slew of changes, not just to your body, but also to your lifestyle. Prenatal yoga can help with alleviating the aches and pains associated with growing a baby, helping you feel calm and preparing your body for labor. Here are some poses!
🧘♀️ Seated Side Bend: This pose reduces back pain and creates space for the belly to expand with more ease.
🧘♀️ Reclining Goddess Pose: It promotes deeper breathing, relaxation, reduces back pain, and improves hip flexibility.
🧘♀️ Chair Pose at the wall variation: This pose builds some major stamina and strength, and releases tension in the low back and building stability.
🧘♀️ Garland Pose: Squatting helps to open your hips, lengthen and soften your pelvic floor muscles, and help position the baby in your pelvis.

👩 In one out of ten women of child-bearing age, a complicated hormonal disorder known as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) may cause various reproductive health issues.
👉 With PCOS, ovaries often develop a collection of follicles that prevents the release of eggs in the fertilization process. At times the follicles can burst and cause pain.
✅ You shouldn’t suffer from the difficult symptoms of PCOS alone.

✨ There are many different types of contraception, and all types are geared for your personal situation and what is convenient for you. The most appropriate method of birth control depends on an individual's overall health, age, frequency of s*xual activity, and more. Types of contraception include:
👩 Birth Control Pills: Women take the pill by mouth to prevent pregnancy, and, when taken correctly, it is up to 99.9% effective.
👩 Intrauterine device (IUD): Also known as an intrauterine system (IUS), is a small, T-shaped device that is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy.
👩 Implant: A small, thin and flexible arm implant that is placed discreetly under the skin of the inner,
upper arm.
👩 Vaginal Ring: You insert and remove it yourself. Just put it in for 3 weeks, take it out, then put a new one in a week later.
