Healing Hypothalamic Amenorrhea with Compassionate, Nourishing Support
From the outside, you might look like the “picture of health.”
You eat lots of vegetables, avoid processed foods and sugar, love to exercise, and are very health conscious. You get lots of praise for your “willpower,” and it feels like a big part of your identity is wrapped up in being healthy.
This all seems well and good until you realize you’re actually stressed the f*** out.
You can’t take a day off from exercising without worrying about all the bad things that might happen.
It’s getting harder and harder to be flexible and spontaneous in social settings because you find yourself worrying about the food and your body.
You feel cold all the time, your digestive system is a wreck, and can’t you seem to sleep through the night.
All this, and then it finally dawns on you that you haven’t had a natural period for months.
What is going on?
Well, your body is practically shouting at you for help. It’s scary to realize that your pursuit of health may actually be harming your body. But know that you are not alone.
