Laura Wershler describes herself as a pro-choice menstrual cycle advocate on the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research’s blog re: Cycling.

I’ve been a menstrual cycle advocate since 1979 when, during a year of post-pill amenorrhea that totally freaked me out, I began to research the ill effects of hormonal contraception. It is not an understatement to say that reading  Barbara Seaman’s national bestseller Women and The Crisis in Sex Hormones changed my life. It started me on a path of self-discovery, and commitment to the idea that healthy, ovulatory menstruation is integral to women’s health and well-being.

As a menstrual activist myself, I find Laura’s work informative and spot on.  I hope you will take the time to visit Society for Menstrual Cycle Research and check out Laura’s thoughts on women’s issues and menstruation.
