Get to know your cycle
It is hard to know why we feel pain all of a sudden, for no apparent reason. We assume it is something we ate or some extra stress we have taken on. Do you get pain in the middle of the month? After your period? Before your period? Is it obvious why you are getting pain at a certain time?
Our bodies go through cycles and we can monitor these cycles. There are natural ways of telling which part of the body cycle you are going through, by analysing how you feel or what your body is showing you. You may notice a difference in your discharge for instance at certain times of the month. All of these bodily waves, are natural and give you messages about what your body is up to.
I have found a great way of knowing when I am ovulating! Ovulation is the time when we are most fertile. It is the time when the egg is ready but it can also cause many Endometriosis sufferers pain.
You can install this cool calendar on your computer and it will tell you exactly when you are ovulating, then you can work out more accurately when you are experiencing pain.
There are four distinct phases our body goes through:
- Our period/monthly
- After our period
- Ovulation time
- Before our period
By knowing when we ovulate, we can work out where the body is at. Keeping notes or a diary will help you determine how your body is healing and you can associate specific pains with certain times of the month, rather than them being a completely random pain, it now has a connection.
It is completely free and it is easy to use for 45days.
