Women's health educator, author, and founder focused on helping women understand their cycles, support their hormones, and make informed decisions about their health.
Nicole Jardim is a women's health educator, writer, and speaker specializing in menstrual and hormonal health. She is the author of Fix Your Period, the founder of the Fix Your Period Collective, and the creator of the Institute for Menstrual Health: a professional training platform for practitioners and health professionals.
Her work focuses on helping women understand how their bodies function, identify root causes, and move beyond symptom management toward long-term, sustainable health. Over the past decade, Nicole has supported tens of thousands of women worldwide through her programs, education, and writing. Her work has been featured in major media outlets including The Guardian, Well+Good, mindbodygreen, and Healthline, and she is the host of The Period Party podcast. She is known for translating complex hormonal concepts into clear, practical guidance that women can apply in their everyday lives.
Nicole's work is grounded in a few core principles: the menstrual cycle is a vital sign of overall health; symptoms are signals that deserve to be understood; and education and body literacy are essential for lasting change. Her approach combines evidence-informed education with real-world application, helping women move from confusion to clarity, and from reactive care to informed decision-making.
Nicole's interest in hormonal health began with her own experience. As a teenager, she struggled with irregular, painful periods and was prescribed the birth control pill, a solution that only introduced more worrying symptoms. Over time, she began experiencing a range of ongoing health issues that were never fully explained, despite extensive medical testing.
Eventually, this led her to explore alternative approaches, including nutrition, lifestyle changes, and integrative health practices. For the first time, she began to understand what was happening in her body and how to support it. That experience became the foundation of her work.
What she learned through her own process — and what she later trained extensively to deeply realize — is that many women are navigating symptoms without clear explanations or practical guidance. Nicole's work today exists to change that.
Nicole trained as a women's health and nutrition practitioner through:

Nicole believes that women should be active participants in their health, not passive recipients of care. Her work is dedicated to helping women understand their bodies, ask better questions, and make decisions that feel informed, grounded, and aligned with their lives.
