Listening to Your Cycle: The Fifth Vital Sign

In this conversation, Luna Hart explores the importance of viewing the menstrual cycle as a vital sign—just like blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature. She shares how the cycle can provide valuable information about overall health and well-being, including hormonal balance, stress load, and skin health. Luna also discusses how factors such as stress, diet, exercise, sleep, and coming off hormonal birth control can impact the menstrual cycle. By learning to pay attention to these patterns, women can make more informed decisions about their health and lifestyle, and create supportive routines that help the body return to balance and feel more at ease.
