The Truth About Birth Control No One Explained
Nearly one in four women in the U.S. uses hormonal birth control -- pills, patches, IUDs, rings, or injections. These are often prescribed not just for pregnancy prevention but for symptoms like cramps, acne, or irregular cycles. Yet few are ever told what these synthetic hormones actually do inside the body. What happens when we trade one problem for another or when the "solution" masks the very signals our body is trying to send?

In The Birth Control Illusion: Reclaiming Hormones, Health, and Your Cycle, certified coach and women's wellness educator Tierra Duncan unpacks the science and the stories behind hormonal contraception. Drawing on extensive research and real-world experience, she reveals how these drugs influence your mood, metabolism, fertility, and overall well-being -- and how to restore your body's natural rhythm with clarity and confidence.

Grounded in compassion and education, Tierra helps you reconnect with your body and rebuild trust in its design. Judgment-free and in-depth, this is a pro-informed-choice resource for women who want to understand their physiology and make empowered decisions about their health.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

• Understand what your sex hormones actually do -- and how they impact everything from mood to metabolism.

• Recognize how birth control can override your body's natural rhythms and how to decode the side effects.

• Identify the lifestyle factors and strategies that restore balance: nutrition, sleep, stress, movement, and supplements.

• Use guided questions after each section to foster open and more constructive conversations with your doctor.

Whether you've been prescribed birth control for PMS, endometriosis, or PCOS, this book helps you finally understand why and what's happening beneath the surface. From testosterone to thyroid, brain to fertility, The Birth Control Illusion gives women the knowledge that should have always been theirs: the truth about their bodies.
