Magic Mushrooms and Women’s Health: Cycles, Fertility, and Libido

Magic Mushrooms and Women’s Health: Cycles, Fertility, and Libido

This one’s for the ladies! On today’s episode of Minds on Mushrooms, I’m joined by Jennifer Chesak, author of The Psilocybin Handbook for Women. Jennifer is a science and medical journalist whose work has appeared in The Washington Post, BBC, and more. She teaches in the journalism and publishing programs at Belmont University and brings a deeply researched perspective to the psychedelic conversation.

Together, we discuss how mushrooms uniquely affect women’s health, covering everything from regulating menstrual cycles and addressing infertility to boosting libido and easing sexual dysfunction. Jennifer shares insights from her book and explores how magic mushrooms, psychedelic therapy, and microdosing can support women’s mental, physical, and spiritual wellbeing.

If you’ve ever wondered how natural psychedelics interact with women’s bodies and cycles, or you’re curious about the latest science on mushrooms and women’s health, this conversation is for you.
