21. The Truth About Birth Control and Learning About Your Cycle with Maddie Ginder Scannapieco

Health Uncovered with Mercedes Cook

When you were first prescribed the pill, how much information were you given about it? If you are like most of us, I’m going to say not a lot. That’s why I am excited to be joined by Maddie Ginder Scannapieco to discuss the truth about birth control.

Maddie Scannapieco is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner specializing in women's gut and hormone health. She helps women get to the root cause of and heal frustrating symptoms like acne, PMS, IBS, thyroid conditions, infertility struggles and more by understanding the "why" and restoring function in the body to get back to optimal health.

We are answering all the questions you might have, including what is birth control. What is it prescribed for, and does it actually fix those problems? What are some misconceptions about birth control? How can we transition off safely? Also, we are going to learn more about your cycles, so you can feel confident not needing birth control. And so much more!

Join us for a conversation that is long overdue. Whether you're considering discontinuing the pill or just want to educate yourself on your cycle, this episode is for you.
