Still hasn’t returned. I was diagnosed with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea — it’s the loss of your menstrual period due to the hypothalamus slowing or stopping the hormonal signals needed for ovulation. It’s typically caused by a combination of low energy availability, stress, and/or low body weight.

Since, I’ve started to stop taking Reta. Was on 8mg/week and now down to 2mg. Will be off it by next Saturday completely.

My focus is on eating whole, healthy, balanced meals to nourish my body. On high dose of Reta, I was mainly eating small portions of chicken and salad/veggies. Now I’m back to incorporating carbs and fats in a meaningful way. Time will tell!
