Hi everybody. This is my first post here but I’ve been lurking for a couple of days.

I’ve been on the diet around five months now and have lost just over 4 stone. All has been great, and still is to a large degree, until my last three periods. Three months ago my period started 2 days early, I didn’t worry as this sometimes happens. The second was 3 days early and the latest one looks like it’s starting 6 days early.

I will get it checked out with the doc but I wondered if any other women had been experiencing anything similar? If the fasting might affect hormone levels etc?

I am mid fourties so being peri menopausal could also be a possibility.

I’ve no other symptoms, the periods aren’t shorter, longer, heavier or more painful, nor do I have any bleeding or pain at any other time…. I wondered if the diet might be a factor?

I thought weight loss might also be a consideration but it equates to around 2lb per week so it’s not a drastic change.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply Nika, I’ll have it checked out I think just to be safe.

It’s averaging out at 1.2kg a week overall so I’m pretty pleased with how it’s going so far.

Thanks again
Sharon

Will do ; )
