The first phase of the menstrual cycle is the follicular phase, which begins on day one of bleeding. However, the follicular phase is split up into two sections: the early follicular phase, which is also widely known as the menstrual phase, and the late follicular phase. In this episode, Angelica discusses a brief introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the menstrual phase and three herbs to support the menstrual phase, with a cameo appearance from Marshmallow Root.
