What is the full femme cycle, and how do these teas support it? The full femme cycle includes the follicular phase (days 1–14), ovulation (around day 14), and the luteal phase (days 15–28). Your tea bundle honors each phase with tailored blends: the follicular blend supports energy, hormonal balance, and renewal, while the luteal blend nurtures relaxation, uterine health, and stress relief.
How do I use the teas together? Start drinking the follicular blend on the first or second day of your period and continue through ovulation (about day 14). Switch to the luteal blend from ovulation until your next period begins. This creates a seamless, supportive rhythm for your entire cycle.
How do I know when I'm ovulating to switch teas? This tea is intended to bring you closer to your body and notice changes through the phases. Ovulation is your "full moon," which lasts about 24 hours and is your peak fertile window. You will notice things like:
- Cervical Mucus:
- During ovulation: Mucus becomes clear, stretchy, and slippery, resembling raw egg whites.
- Beginning of Luteal Phase: Mucus dries up again or becomes sticky.
-
Libido Changes
- During Ovulation: Many women experience a heightened sense of arousal, energy and confidence due to surging estrogen and testosterone. Do you feel more flirtatious, energetic, or drawn to intimacy?
- Beginning of Luteal Phase: Sexual desire drops and so may your energy and mood.
There are other ways that help like using a cycle tracking app or checking basal body temperature. The key is to grow a deeper connection with your body!
