Moment 166: What Men (& Women) NEED To Know About The Menstrual Cycle: Dr Mindy Pelz

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

In this moment, nutritionist and functional health expert, Dr. Mindy Pelz gives the information that every man needs to hear about menstrual cycles in order to better understand the females in their life:

The menstrual and reproductive cycle lasts from 28 - 32 days (this varies from female to female)

Day 1 - 10, is when a female is building oestrogen, Mindy says that for the first 2 days is the best time to give the female’s of your life some space. Afterwards they will be more present and outgoing.

Day 12/13, is when oestrogen is at it’s peak in the female body and is the best time to resolve any conflict

Day 10 - 15, is when ovulation happens and is when a female’s libido is highest, after Day 15, there is a crash of hormones which can lead to feeling low

Day 17/18 is when progesterone starts to come in and is the time to be particularly nice and caring to the female’s in your life until the cycle begins again

Mindy says that understanding the patterns of the female menstrual cycle, can create large amounts of empathy, and men can change their behaviour to help the females in their life as best they can.
