Medical research has long overlooked the impact of female hormonal cycles, leaving critical gaps in healthcare. This affects everyone – trans and non-binary people and cis women – and it is relevant to us all because our health is interconnected.
In this upbeat and inclusive talk, Dr Chi Eziefula, Associate Professor at BSMS, and Jane Dancey, Somatic Health Practitioner and Educator, will explore some of the latest research on nutrition, brain and bone health, exercise and stress – and why hormonal cycles matter across a lifetime.
Do wellness trends like fasting and high-intensity exercise work the same for people with cycling hormones as for those without?
Join us as we challenge outdated assumptions, get curious about what we don’t know and explore what it looks like to thrive in a body with cycling hormones.
Free to attend and all welcome, this event is celebrating International Women's Day.
