missing period

[Guest guest]

Sara,

No, I didn't do anything in particular to encourage the period to come

back. I just kept upping my fats (the last few weeks I am finally up

to 6 tbsp, it took me almost four months to get here!) and focusing on

good food and getting all my supplements. I kept telling myself that

I was doing the most important things and my body would get around to

this when it was ready and had the energy for it - I don't know about

you, but I've always been quite physically wrecked, at least the first

days of my period.

I must say the first day this time around was quite bad with the

exhaustion, but that was the only such day. Like I said, I did miss

four months, and I did have thoughts like, oh my, all that buildup is

building up and not being broken down over four months, that must mean

when I DO get it, it will be a doozy, lots of bleeding, lots of pain,

lots of clotting (which was another of my major problems -

menorrhagia).. but it didn't happen that way. It was very 'normal' -

as compared to other women mind you: if it was normal for me I would

have had several days of intense pain etc. It was lighter than I

expected, especially given the missed months. It will all work out

for you, too! I'm sure of it.

> can i ask if you did anything to 'encourage' your period's return? 

I just skipped my 4th month in a row and it makes me feel sick inside

knowing I'm not getting the cleansing that my body needs.  I was

thinking of seeing an herbalist but would love to have my body just do

it on it's own.
