S1 E2: The Menstrual Cycle and The Brain - "Why Is My Energy and Mood Always Changing?"
Manage episode 430383520 series 3588076
In this episode, I answer the question: "Why Is My Energy and Mood Always Changing?" This is not medical or psychiatric advice. I speak only to the brain differences that happen due to the natural hormone fluctuations in a woman's body and address the normal patterns that occur at the different phases of the female cycle.
Enjoy!
