I do make wonderful padsicles for clients but I advise only for 24-48 hour use. Then I start them on a yoni steaming journey for 30 days

Hormonal birth control pills can deplete numerous nutrients, both while you’re on it, and when coming off of it (this is the case with Vitamin D). This is a problem because most of us, according to CDC studies, are already low in these nutrients, and others, and this can have an impact on our wellbeing, hormonal health, mental health, and more.⁠
⁠
Let’s just look - briefly - at our cycles, fertility, and mood:⁠
⁠
🌻 High homocysteine blood levels are associated with low folate/folic acid levels, low luteal phase progesterone, and a 33% increase in likelihood of anovulation, while higher levels of folate are associated with higher progesterone levels.⁠
🌻 Low ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is associated with reduced ovarian function and progesterone levels, which can affect mood and fertility; a study that found that when women were supplemented with ascorbic acid their progesterone levels rose, their luteal phases lengthened, and their pregnancy rates increased.⁠
🌻 Women with low B12/folate have increased risk of recurrent miscarriage, and low B12 can cause depression.⁠
🌻 Low Vitamin E is connected with increased risk of not ovulating.⁠
🌻 Low Vitamin B6 has been found in women with miscarriage and prenatal nausea + vomiting, and is associated with PMS symptoms + depression.⁠
🌻 Vitamin D plays a role in helping women conceive with IVF.⁠
🌻 Low selenium not only impacts the thyroid, which can affect fertility, but is associated with increased miscarriage risk, and can cause postpartum depression.⁠
⁠
Please note: If you’re on the Pill, it’s important to take a multivitamin to compensate for nutrient loss from the Pill.⁠

If you’re planning or trying to conceive, consider restoring nutrient status through an optimized preconception diet for 6 months. Not only does this improve fertility, but you’re also creating that healthier nutrient status that will benefit you and baby throughout your pregnancy.

You'll never know that vaginal breech birth is possible if you never see it. And if your providers tell you it's not possible.
