Keto messing up your menstrual cycle


(Valeria ) #1

Hey girls (and maybe some guys lol)
So, Saturday was my 2nd week ketoanniversary (I know, lame ass hell, but I’m extremely proud of myself so I will celebrate it! Lol) so, today I found out that I started spotting…badly. If you need more info, I’m extremely regular and my last period ended on June 7th, so I’m kinda worried that I’m spotting this early, I do not take birth control btw. I know and I’ve heard that Keto can literally mess up your hormones and stuff, but I just wanted to make sure that this was normal and maybe get some reliable info from people that may have gone through this? Like I’ve said, I’ve only been on Keto for 2 weeks and a day (I’m already down 9 pounds btw, and I’m absolutely proud of myself) but if I’m missing something or you think I should consult a doctor please let me know! Thank youuu

If you use the search bar, there are a lot of threads regarding menstrual cycles on keto. It is very common to be irregular at first. Good luck!
