Your body is not defective
When you hear the words:
“Luteal phase defect”
“Incompetent cervix”
“Failure to progress”
What do you feel in your body?
Are these words that spark trust or are they words that dampen your confidence in your body’s ability to grow and nurture your baby?
🎙️YOUR BODY IS NOT DEFECTIVE!🎙️
Every symptom is an invitation to listen more closely, to connect deeper.
A short luteal phase (the phase after ovulation) is a sign that your body is not producing a robust enough amount of progesterone.
The risk of having low progesterone and a short luteal phase, is that it is associated with increased pregnancy loss.
But it’s in your body’s wisdom that it happens that way! It is NOT a defect.
Instead of labeling our bodies as defective, incompetent, or failing to fit into the systems and environments we are placed in, we can identify what potential areas of improvement we can explore to remove the barrier for our bodies to produce a robust amount of progesterone.
Remember, fertility is inherent: it’s our job to remove the barriers to our bodies expressing this full potential.
If you are interested in learning how to regain trust in your body’s wisdom and increase your chances of successful conception, I’ve created a free training just for you.
In my brand new course, Resilient Motherhood: a self-paced guide to preparing for conception and beyond, I teach you to not only increase your chances of conceiving naturally but to regain trust in your body’s wisdom and to learn to interpret your symptoms as areas of growth rather than “defects” that need to be fixed.
If this approach resonates with you, I highly recommend checking out my course- I promise you’re going to love it.
