The Period Whisperer more commonly known to her friends as Rachel Dutton, has a number of innovative titles she goes by on her website The Healthy Womb.
Rachel Dutton, Founder of The Period Whisperer
Known as the Period Whisperer amongst friends, Rachel works to educate women about ways to understand their menstrual cycle, something I admit I didn’t really get until I was trying to conceive.
I found Rachel really fascinating to chat to, she really knows her stuff and explains it so easily.
Sometimes I have been guilty of drifting off when trying to get my head around the complicated goings-on within our bodies – however, Rachel has earned her title for sure and I can see why her blogs and youtube channel is gaining popularity.
We spoke in a fair bit of detail about how a mission to help women understand that they don’t have to endure painful periods each month. Rachel works via Skype as well as face to face and explained in our chat how taking simple measures can make a massive difference to how you’re feeling. Whether you are just starting out trying to get pregnant, or have already embarked on fertility treatment.
We discussed how diet affects your period, and how tampons can cause pain. We also spoke about massage and how men can get involved. From explaining how a painful period is your body trying to tell you something, Rachel talked me through the benefits of menstrual cups and fabric pads and how the color of your period is also an indicator of your wellbeing.
From her own struggle with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), Rachel became more and more compelled to research how to overcome period pain with more holistic methods, especially as she wasn’t getting the support she needed from Western medicine. From Endometriosis and PMS as well as many other menstrual concerns Rachel offers brilliant advice via her website The Period Whisperer, she also speaks on a podcast and has a youtube channel, humorously called Womb Tube.
