Key takeaway:

[1:40] Briefing of Dr. Jolene Brighten’s career

[4:15] How big of a problem is the birth control pill? 

[5.23] Acne and PCOS are reasons why women take birth control pills, but the pill is masking underlying symptoms – as soon as it’s stopped, those symptoms come back with a vengeance

[8:03]  Perimenopausal and postmenopausal symptoms are due to the decline of hormones, especially progesterone.

[9:30] How do birth control pills affect perimenopausal and postmenopausal women?

[11.55]  Since the 1960s, when the pill was first given out, women have been complaining of symptoms of depression but have been dismissed by conventional medicine.

[13:05] Being off the pill is not enough to recover from its damage.

[14:01] Genetic changes have occurred due to the pill.

[14:45] What is Post-Birth Control Syndrome? 

[16:05] What can you do about Post-Birth Control Syndrome? 

[17:25] Diet and lifestyle changes are needed, not only supplements.

[18:24] Birth control pills are one of the main causes of leaky gut, which leads to increased risk of food sensitivities, brain fog, inflammation, and autoimmune disease.

[20:05] Get Dr. Brighten’s Post-Birth Control Syndrome Diet for free at jjvirgin.com/pbcs to start detoxifying from birth control pills.

[21:25] Dr. Brighten meditates every day for optimal performance.

[23:20] Take JJ’s Leaky Gut Support Formula to repair leaky gut and alleviate digestive unrest. 

[23:57] Listener’s question: Why do I get depressed for seemingly no reason? Hormone imbalances might be the answer

[25:20] Add in EstroCare to help support hormone balance, include healthy fats in your diet, especially omega-3 fats and supplement with a quality fish oil supplement like Omega Ultra, and keep your blood sugar balanced by eating a low-sugar impact diet.

[26:30] Manage stress with tapping and high-intensity interval training.
