What we won't do

From Learn about your cycle. General wellness information, not medical advice. Sources.

We won't hand you a meal plan or a workout that promises to "unlock" your hormones. The evidence for timing food and exercise to your cycle phases is thin, and a lot of what gets sold as science is closer to marketing. The changes in your body across a cycle are real; the strict rules built on top of them mostly aren't. So we'll show you what's actually known, keep the seasons as a way to notice your own patterns, and leave the rulebook out of it. What you log about yourself will tell you more than any universal chart.
