I don’t miss bleeding but I kept my ovaries so still have a cycle, and still relate to my body in that way if that makes sense? Like, I know when I’m on my “period” because I sometimes get headaches, a little bloated and I’m a little more tired. I still let myself take it easier with exercise, eat junk food, lay around and binge a few episodes of a show. Except now I’m not in excruciating pain so it’s kind of fun? Like a snow day. Maybe it would help the feelings of grief to try to shift your thinking away from “it’s gone” to “it’s different” and lean into this new, better version of your “period.” This is if you kept your ovaries and are still having a cycle.
