I am on day 20 of my first Whole30 and my period has been so so so heavy this time around, not sure why. I can only think it is because of the Whole30 but it seems everyone else says theirs has decreased in pain. Can someone let me know if they are in the same situation at all?
I am there with you. I started spotting 7 days before my period was due, and then it slowly got heavier. Then last night it was like the floodgates disappeared and it was insanely heavy with the wort cramps I have had since I was a teenager.
I get that you start your cycle when your hormone levels drop, but which foods are we eliminating that are making this happen? I wish Melissa were to chime in on this. It's scary to bleed through an entire pad in 6 hours, when it takes 10 hours normally!
