About this listen

In this episode of The Doula and The Doc, we're diving deep into everything your health teacher didn’t tell you about your menstrual cycle. From what's normal to what's not, Dr. Joe and Ness unpack the signs, symptoms, and secrets of your cycle that every person deserves to understand.


We bust some major myths—like whether getting your period young means early menopause and if tampons are really as bad as TikTok says. Plus, we explore why your period is so much more than just an inconvenience—it's a powerful window into your overall health.


We also get real about the unspoken stuff: discharge changes, bleeding on contraception, irregular cycles, Mirena mysteries, and how to handle pain without being dismissed.


And of course, Dr. Joe takes on your burning questions in our listener Q&A, from painful sex and PMDD to post-miscarriage cycles and what it means when you’ve had discharge for ages but no period yet.


This one’s packed with knowledge, compassion, and the kind of straight-up info we all wish we had sooner.
