Hello everyone welcome back to Fit Body Happy Joints. My name is Shannon. Today we've got

Payton with us here today and we are talking about training around your menstrual cycle, why the menstrual cycle is a vital sign, why someone

would lose their cycle, exercise recommendations for regaining and improving your

cycle.

We're going to touch a little bit on cycle sinking.

We're going to talk about recommendations for exercise

when you're trying to conceive.

And then we're going to get into Payton's personal story and what

she's been going through the past year. We are discussing miscarriage and we will

be we will make sure to give you a trigger warning

before we start that discussion in case you want to stop listening at that point

so the first half of this episode will be all about like Mistral Cycle, why it's a vital sign and all of that stuff.

And then I'll make sure to give you all a trigger warning and then we'll get into Payton's story and beyond.

So if you need to stop listening, fully respect that. So welcome,

Payton. Thank you. I'm really excited to be having this conversation. Me too.

Payton has really spent a lot of time researching this topic

and then another episode that we're going to do on PCOS.

And I think that this stuff is really important

for women to know and understand.

And one thing that I never considered until recently is that your menstrual cycle is a vital side and it's an indication that something is

dysfunctioning in your body. Can you talk about that? Why should we consider the

menstrual cycle a vital sign?
