Lara Briden - The Period Revolutionary
Leading the change to better periods and hormones
The gut microbiome plays a role in many women’s health conditions including endometriosis and premenstrual mood symptoms.
Progesterone is beneficial because it lightens periods. It also reduces inflammation, regulates immune function, and supports healthy thyroid, brain, bones, and breasts.
Do you make enough progesterone? Are you sure?
The only way to make progesterone is to ovulate and have a healthy luteal phase.

High estrogen can contribute to heavy periods, breast pain, fibroids, and premenstrual mood symptoms. It can also suppress thyroid function and increase the risk of breast cancer.
To lower estrogen, you need to understand all the types of estrogen and why they’re high.

Endometriosis is an inflammatory disease that’s affected by hormones but is not caused by hormones. Instead, endometriosis is, at least in part, a disease of immune dysfunction.
In episode 4 of my podcast/YouTube video (released in March 2022), I discuss some of the new endometriosis research, including the link with genes that increase the risk of autoimmune disease, the role of a bacterial toxin called lipopolysaccharide or LPS, and new targets for natural immune-modulating treatment.
Are you a morning person or an evening person? And could that affect your ability to lose weight?
In episode ten of my podcast and YouTube video, I look at chronotype, which is your individual disposition to be awake or asleep at certain times. And how that might affect your overall health and metabolism.
