I am a 33-year-old who has been on a health journey since going off hormonal birth control in 2023. I began documenting my symptoms and experiences throughout the process and quickly realized how drastic and intense the changes were that my body was experiencing, something I was not prepared for. This led me to start searching for more information so that I could become a better advocate for myself. Throughout this process I learned so much about women’s health, things I wish I had known earlier on so that I could make informed decisions. I realized that we (women) don’t have the resources, support, and access to information that we need to make well-informed decisions about our health. I hope that by sharing my story and experiences I can raise awareness for women’s health, provide access to information, and develop a strong community where we can become better advocates for ourselves and others in our lives.
