NOT GETTING YOUR PERIOD?
If you haven't been getting your period for months (or even years) there's no better time than now to start working towards better hormonal health.
NEWSFLASH: Birth control won't help you get a real menstrual cycle!
It can prevent you from getting pregnant, and maybe make you bleed every month if you're lucky... ​
But other than that, it’s really bad for your hormonal health!
Taking the Pill won't give you a real period. It simply gives you a withdrawal bleed that lulls you into a false sense of security about your hormonal health.
In fact, one study found that 37% of women who started birth control for irregular cycles didn't get their period back when they stopped the Pill!
The birth control pill is truly just a mask for something more serious going on under the surface. (More on that below.)
This can be scary, confusing stuff if you’re a woman who just wants to have an easy, regular cycle, and to get pregnant without expensive drugs and invasive procedures.
And after working with hundreds of women with hormonal challenges and missing periods, I know one thing for sure...
Synthetic hormones found in the Pill are NOT the answer.
Your Period Is Your Fifth VITAL Sign
Let's be honest... having a period every month is kind of annoying. #realtalk
Yes, they're a natural part of a woman's life and they're a sign that our bodies are fertile. They're what makes our bodies so different from men's, and when our hormones are in balance we feel amazing.
We feel in touch with our natural femininity, inside and out.
But frankly most of us wouldn't complain if they simply disappeared.
And while it's tempting to think that a missing period is a great thing, (no PMS! no mess! save tons of money on tampons!)
You and I both know that it's a good indication that something deeper and more serious is going on with your body.
Maybe your doctor told you if you don't get your period back ASAP, you'll be at higher risk for...
For most of us these issues seem like a long ways off. Plus it’s so much easier to focus on the more immediate issues in our lives.​ And I agree... there’s no need to dwell or live in fear of the future.
However as time goes on and you're still not getting your period, you might start to notice...
Yikes! Why does this happen?
Your cycle is an indication of how well your ovaries are producing sex hormones like estrogen and progesterone.
When your hormones are at a healthy level, and you're ovulating every month, it means your body is getting everything it needs to thrive and function at its best.
And healthy hormones show through in lush hair, glowing skin, great energy and a healthy sex drive. These hormones truly are what make us feel like a woman!
Your Body Just Wants To Survive
Think about it for a moment from a biological point of view.
When your female body is stressed or malnourished in any way, the first thing to go is your fertility.
After all, getting pregnant and having a baby would be a bad idea if there's a famine or war going on. (Look at this from an ancestral health perspective!)
Your body knows it would be wiser to spend its nutrients and energy on more important things like brain health, organ health and the fight-or-flight response.
These things are crucial to our survival, while menstruation and fertility is not.
This is why I believe that we women should view our menstrual cycle as our fifth vital sign.
If it’s not happening at all (or it’s extremely irregular) that is a strong signal that the body is stressed out in some way.
Maybe it’s too much exercise, too much stress, or the wrong types of food. Or maybe it's a gut infection or autoimmune issue.
Whatever it is, it's a reliable sign from your body that something is off.
And if we want to avoid the long term health risks I mentioned above - and generally live a more vibrant and healthy life - we need to make sure our hormones are firing on all cylinders.
It doesn't matter if it's only been a few months or even a few years since your last cycle.​
Getting it back - without resorting to The Pill - is imperative for your long term health.
And the most important thing to remember?
Your body is NOT broken!
There’s Hope (Regardless Of What You’ve Been Told)
"After 10 years of hypothalamic amenorrhea and seeing countless fertility specialists, endocrinologists and OBGYNs...​ I was told that I would probably never get my period back and that I would be lucky to conceive. With Laura’s support I was finally able to give my body what it needed to get my period back after 10 years. Now I have the sweetest little boy I thought I’d never have."

GET YOUR PERIOD BACK IN 4 SIMPLE STEPS
Getting your period back isn't rocket science.
But it can feel that way when you start Googling for answers, or trying a million different strategies that aren't working.
The truth is, most women can get their periods back really quickly, even if they've had amenorrhea for months or years.
They just need to be doing the RIGHT things, and not wasting their efforts on diets and medications that simply don't work.
That's where Get Your Period Back™ comes in.
You'll learn my 4-step protocol that covers everything you need to know about recovering a normal menstrual cycle.
I call it the 4R Protocol and I see it work with my clients on a weekly basis.
WHAT IS THE 4R PROTOCOL?
There are 4 major components to my effective period recovery protocol.
1. REFEED - You need to be getting the right balance of calories, carbs, fat, and protein so that your body gets the signal to ovulate and menstruate. Vitamins and minerals are crucial here too (you can't just eat junk food or follow a super restrictive diet!) You must find a diet that you can follow for the rest of your life if you're going to get your period back for good!
2. REST - Rest days are when your body repairs and grows, and sends the signal to your ovaries that it's safe to ovulate. Rest includes appropriate sleep, down time, and rest days from your workout. You need a training approach that factors in rest while still letting you exercise in a way you enjoy, that keeps your body strong.
3. RELAX - Reducing stress around food, your body, and your life in general is a non-negotiable for period repair. (This requires some serious mindset shifts!) A lot of this element of relaxation comes from the core of your beliefs around self -worth, which can be hard to change on your own.
4. REPAIR - For some women, amenorrhea recovery goes way beyond eating more and exercising less. Once you've dealt with those basic changes, you may need to dive deeper into functional medicine testing and treatments, which covers gut, thyroid, adrenal, and immune system health.
If you're not getting your period on a regular basis, you need to make sure you've mastered ALL FOUR of these crucial components for healthy hormones.
Missing even just ONE of these could be enough to keep you from menstruating!
The good news? You'll learn everything you need to know to optimize these essential four areas of your life (in just 6 weeks) in my online program Get Your Period Back.

"I'm not sure I could have gotten here without Laura's guidance."
I discovered Laura after years of dealing with digestive and hormonal issues including IBS, food sensitivities, PCOS, cystic acne, fatigue and hypothyroidism.
I finally reached a breaking point when my doctor insisted that birth control was the only solution to my problems (spoiler: it wasn’t).
I was exhausted and completely overwhelmed trying to navigate all of the conflicting information out there to find a solution myself. Working with Laura helped me uncover and treat the root cause of my symptoms.
After seeing countless doctors and struggling to get the help that I needed, working with Laura was so refreshing and helped me make sustainable changes to my health.
I've now had my period back for 3 months and am feeling really hopeful that it's finally back to normal. I'm not sure I could have gotten here without Laura's support and guidance."

"I regained my period and have been truly blessed"
This is a very emotional topic for me and for those of you out there who have struggled with this surely understand. I had unknowingly been suffering from hypothalamic amenorrhea for years, thinking the lack of period was just a nice perk of my IUD, as my OB-GYN had suggested. Only after I had it removed when my partner and I decided we wanted to start trying for a family did I realize that that this was not the case. As you can imagine and as I’m sure many of you know all too well, the heartbreaking thought of not be able to bear children was devastating. Doctor after doctor, test after test, I found myself at a loss for the root cause.
I found Laura’s podcast and immediately realized she understood very well the symptoms I had been experiencing. The recommendations learned through the podcast helped me to guide my doctors towards the appropriate lab work to confirm the issue. I started following her advice to the best of my ability immediately. My undereating, disordered eating, and over-exercising needed to stop if I wanted any chance at having a child. Sounds simple enough, right? Stop exercising and eat more!
I discovered, however, that I had no idea how to do this and trust myself to make the right decisions for my body. I was eating more, but still being restrictive and only eating so much more of very certain things. I exercised less, but as a marathoner, my version of “less” still wasn’t in line with the nutrition I was providing for my body. I decided to enlist Laura’s help.
Working with Laura allowed me to let go of the reigns and hand them to someone I could trust. I let her guide me and she was able to ease me comfortably back to a healthy, functioning body. I learned what was right for me, retrained my mind on those formerly “off-limits” foods, and now have a well-balanced approach to nutrition and exercise. It is still somewhat surreal to me thinking back to where I was and how far I’ve come, but I am happy to report that I am now fully recovered. I regained my period and have been truly blessed – I am currently six months pregnant with a little baby girl!"

"Laura gave me the freedom and permission to take care of my body"
After 10 years of hypothalamic amenorrhea and seeing countless fertility specialists, endocrinologists and OBGYNs, I was told that I would probably never get my period back and that I would be lucky to conceive. I had lost my period after an eating disorder in college and it didn't return until after working with Laura.
I’m so grateful to have found Laura. I truly believed that I was doing everything “right,” but she immediately identified the lack of calories and nutrition in my diet. She told me that in order to truly heal I had to stop under-eating, specifically carbohydrates. Laura gave me the freedom and permission to take care of my body and properly feed myself. She was gentle but confident in her coaching and I could tell she could relate to my experience in food restriction and fear of carbs.
With Laura’s support I was finally able to give my body what it needed to get my period back after 10 years. Now I have the sweetest little boy I thought I’d never have. If you’ve been struggling with hypothalamic amenorrhea please trust that Laura will provide you with great knowledge of nutrition and what it takes for the female body to be truly healthy."

Hi, I'm Laura.
I LOVE HELPING WOMEN GET THEIR PERIODS BACK!
I'm a registered dietitian and every week I work with women just like you who are struggling with irregular or missing cycles.
Some women have hypothalamic amenorrhea, others have PCOS, and some recently stopped taking the Pill for the first time in years.

​After working one-on-one with dozens of women and seeing the success of an evidence-based, holistic approach, I knew I just had to create an online program so I could get this information out to as many women as I could.
After months of hard work, hours of research, and serious attention to the needs of my clients, Get Your Period Back™ was born!
I can't wait to help you get your period back naturally AND achieve vibrant health while doing it!

YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS? I'VE GOT ANSWERS.
Absolutely not! Many of the health risks associated with amenorrhea, particularly loss of bone density, are more related to malnutrition and stress than they are to low hormone levels. In fact, there's no evidence that hormonal birth control improves bone density in premenopausal women with hypothalamic amenorrhea.
Yes! While being underweight increases your risk of amenorrhea, you don't have to have a weight problem to lose your period. Many of the women I work with on a regular basis are not considered underweight by any means, and most of them eat what they feel is a "healthy" diet.
Definitely. I've worked with dozens of women struggling with what's often called the Female Athlete Triad. My 4R Protocol for period recovery not only helps them repair their hormones but for many, actually improves their athletic performance and energy levels.
Absolutely! The recommended diet and lifestyle changes in this program can be easily tailored to the needs of a woman with PCOS, and I'll teach you how to do that in this program. This program is especially useful for women with non-insulin resistant PCOS, which accounts for about a third of women with PCOS. Watch Eann's story above to learn how she got her period back with PCOS!
Possibly! While this program will not reverse menopause, many women with a history of amenorrhea are still able to get their period back at a later age. I can't guarantee a return of your cycle, but I'm confident that the diet and lifestyle information in this program will improve your overall health and increase your chance of a recovered period.
No. This program will not reverse menopause, unfortunately.
Probably not. This program will most likely not reverse premature ovarian failure, unfortunately. However, there are many women who have been inaccurately diagnosed with POF when they truly have HA, and if that's the case this program will help!
Definitely! Get Your Period Back is self-paced, meaning you can go through the material at your own pace. Plus, you'll have unlimited access to the program and all future updates, so feel free to come back and re-do the program at any time!
I do not offer refunds on coaching services. All payments are final. I am here to coach you to your highest level of success, and part of that is requiring a commitment from you that you are fully invested in your coaching package. When refunds are an option, you can have “one foot in” the work, and “one foot out” the door. It is to YOUR benefit to decide BEFORE purchasing your package and committing to work with me that I am the right coach for you. If you’re in, you need to be 100% in, just as I will be for you.
Please email me at [email protected] with any additional questions you have about the program! I want you to be 100% comfortable with your decision to join our program.
MORE TESTIMONIALS FROM HAPPY CLIENTS
"Her simple approach worked!"
When I came to Laura I had been experiencing irregular menstrual cycles/amenorrhea for five years. My husband and I wanted to start a family, and we were feeling discouraged.
After reviewing my medical records, dietary journals and personal history, Laura provided me with some personalized and simple initial recommendations. I liked that she didn't automatically jump to complicated protocols or expensive supplementation, which I had been previously trying without success.
Her simple approach worked! After one month of following her guidelines, my period returned and I became pregnant shortly afterwards. My husband and I are thrilled to have just welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world!"
Laurie M.
"My diet no longer feels like a restriction."
Laura made a really positive impact on both my physical and mental health. I sought her insight originally because I had been on birth control for about 5 years and after stopping the pill I did not have a period for about 5 months. She recommended dietary and supplemental changes and within one month I was having my period again!
When we started our sessions I was only eating about 1200-1500 calories a day, a consequence of eating Paleo and overexercising. She encouraged me to add safe carbs back into my diet and to increase my caloric intake to healthy levels. She also helped introduce me to a wider variety of foods. Now I have developed a much better relationship with food. My diet no longer feels like a restriction."
Allison P.
"I finally felt like I had a plan in place."
Laura's experience with HA/Post Pill issues was a huge help in my journey to recover my period and balance my hormones. I felt confident in her knowledge and the plans she set up for me. She genuinely listened to my issues and set up a plan to best suit me.
I was hesitant to make the plunge to work with a dietitian at first, but I am so glad that I did. Working with Laura helped me feel like I had a plan in place and freed me up from worrying and stressing. If you are struggling to balance your hormones I would highly recommend working with Laura!"
Marion C.
"I learned things about my body that I never would have imagined."
Before I began working with Laura, I struggled severely with body image and under eating. Some of the things that I was experiencing to make me realize something was wrong were mood swings, feeling lethargic, not having my period, constipation, and probably lots of other things I was never aware of.
I had been obsessing over everything I ate in order to get the "perfect body". Even though I knew I needed to change, I was terrified because I had no idea where to begin. Laura knew all the questions to ask and things to say. I was able to trust her immediately.
After three months of working with her, we were able to meet all three goals that we set: get back my period, fix the constipation, and clear up the acne on my face. The best of these was getting my period back. It's always nerve wracking when you are missing a vital part of your womanhood.
I learned so much from Laura about my period and all the things that affect it. She even got me hooked up with my Daysy, which is a natural birth control method. I LOVE THAT THING! I consulted her about getting an IUD, and she gave me information I never even knew I needed so that I could make an informed decision about my reproductive health. I have never been on the Pill, except for a short stint when I lost my period and the gynecologist prescribed the Pill. During that time, I noticed a significant difference in how I felt (depressed and unmotivated), so I stopped taking in immediately and knew I never wanted to do that again.
When I discovered there was a 100% natural and effective way to prevent pregnancy, it was like a whole new world had been opened up to me! Seriously, it is such an amazing feeling. I learned things about my body that I never would have imagined.
To anyone considering being Laura's client, whether for nutrition or for period health, IT IS SO WORTH IT! I recommend it 100% because it will literally change your life and give you so much power.
Gaining the knowledge that she is able to give and having her support and encouragement will open many doors for you in lots of aspects of your life! She changed my life, and I know she can do the same for you!"
