Very good way to shut down a hormone problem because you just eliminate the hormones. But there is another way. If you’re wanting to come off birth control, I outlined a whole protocol in Beyond the Pill that you’ll find many people, including health care providers, use to help others be successful. Here’s the steps: 1️⃣Replenish Nutrient Stores 2️⃣Heal Your Gut 3️⃣Birth Control Hormone Detox 4️⃣Identify Your Hormone Imbalance 5️⃣Reverse Metabolic Mayhem If you were on any other medication that was known to deplete nutrients doctors would recommend you consider supplementing with those nutrients. Birth control should be no different. We want to build a nutrient dense diet. 👍🏽 And it’s a good idea to start a multivitamin or Prenatal. ✅Prenatal if you need the iron or still have periods. ✅Multivitamin without iron if you’re not menstruating or iron fine. I’m going to go through each of the steps I’ve outline above in coming posts, including what to eat. Make sure you’re following or tag a friend who could use this info! Coming off hormonal birth control doesn’t have to be hard. #beyondthepill #hormonalhealth #postbirthcontrolsyndrome #thepill #birthcontrol #pcos #endometriosis #pcossupport #endometriose #hormonasfemeninas #hormonas”.
