Periods can bring a whole lineup of side effects: cramps, mood swings, sleep disruption, bloating, digestive chaos, and the sudden urge to fight your partner because they breathed wrong. Morgan, Lauren, and Amanda break down what's actually happening physiologically during the menstrual cycle, why some symptoms hit harder than others, and what can help from a non-medical, practical standpoint. They get into cramping, insomnia, mood changes, gut issues, water retention, stress, magnesium, and the difference between normal cycle-related changes and signs that something more serious may be going on. It's a grounded conversation on how to better understand your body, manage common symptoms, and stop feeling like you need to just suffer through it.
