(Your menstrual cycle can be the average 28 days, it can be shorter or longer than 28 days, or it can vary in length from cycle to cycle.) Those with a natural menstrual cycle. (This means those who do not use hormone birth control--such as the Pill, patch, ring or implant--or supplemental estrogen, progesterone or testosterone for other reasons.) That's because these types of hormone medications alter the up and down pattern found in a typical natural menstrual cycle. Because this book tracks the monthly ups and downs of estrogen, testosterone and progesterone in a natural, healthy menstrual cycle, it not intended for those who do not have a monthly menstrual cycle, are pregnant, breastfeeding, menopausal, taking hormone medications or hormone birth control, have a health condition that impacts reproductive hormones, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome, or do not have functioning ovaries. Have functioning ovaries, but no uterus? If you ovulate, you can still use 28 Days to track your hormones. This book is not intended in any way to help readers avoid pregnancy or become pregnant.
