DEAR BODY, GIVE ME A SIGN… ANY SIGN
Lucky you, your body IS giving you signs if you’re struggling to get your period back after hypothalamic amenorrhea.
.
If you have checked off the boxes of
1️⃣ Eating more
2️⃣Exercising less
3️⃣ Reducing environmental stress
4️⃣Reducing mental stress
Then you’re on the right track
.
I know some of you must be thinking “But what if it doesn’t happen to me? What happens if I am different?”
Honey, you are not different. Unless you have a deeper rooted medical issue that goes beyond of what stress can do to the body, you will get your period back. I promise you that
.
Need more reassurance that you’re on the right track?
Your body hears that, so it has sent some gifts:
🌡 Elevated body temperature! This means your thyroid function has optimized and your body under less stress to conserving energy.
🌯 You are h-u-n-g-r-i-e-r, which is great, because your metabolism has increased. Remember, higher metabolism, faster rate in which your cells use and uptake energy, meaning better functioning body.
🏃‍♀️You have more energy and resilience, meaning you don’t’ feel depleted as easily- whether it is mentally or physically.
💧 You’ve stopped peeing 100 times day, including waking up at night between 1-3am. Remember, constantly urinating is a sign that your body is in a sympathetic state, causing you to lose minerals. This symptom has also been associated with low estrogen, thus if you’ve stopped being a grandma, we’re on the right track.
😭 You’ve noticed there are certain times of the month you are more emotionally sensitive. This can signal that your hormones are becoming cyclical again.
💥Carrying on from the previous point, if you’re becoming cyclical, you can also expect breast pain at the same time, as well as lower back soreness.
🍳One of the most important signs to figuring out if you’ve ovulated is if you’ve developed cervical mucus that looks like raw egg white (transparent, liquid, sticky)
❤ Your libido is FINALLY BACK. Halle-frieken-lujah.
