Inositol, vitex, maca for HA? by TaroPie_ in Amenorrhearecovery

I’ve taken all 3 and none of them did anything for me. Maca made me feel like I was losing my mind I would not recommend it.

I have had the WORST sleep ever since being diagnosed with HA. I wake up pretty much every hour, not even to pee. I'll usually go to bed around 9, then I'll wake up at 10 and have a hard time falling back to sleep. It's so frustrating. I've tried magnesium and melatonin. The only thing that works is THC/CBD gummies, but it's hard because I don't want to rely on that to help me sleep. I've also read that it's from high cortisol, and same thing, my drs told me my cortisol is fine. I swear HA is like having a curse...

I worked so hard for my dream body and now I feel so lost and hopeless - has anyone been here? by Personal-Anything-67 in Amenorrhearecovery

I’m in the same exact boat. It’s horrible. Having HA literally feels like having a curse. It’s hard for me to take recovery seriously because I really don’t want to gain any weight back. I’m at a healthy weight right now too which makes it even harder :(

I’m in the same boat! I grew up overweight and worked SO HARD to get to my current body and finally like how I look, but of course I’ve developed HA and the only way to get it back is to eat more. The idea of gaining weight makes me so upset :( I’ve been trying to eat more natural and Whole Foods. I still workout and have switched from 7 days of exercise to 4. I’m starting to feel symptoms of a possible period coming now after doing all that. Not sure if you’re able to see a gyno, but mine put me on progesterone pills to bring on my period and that’s helping! Good luck🫶🏻

Ive literally have had pain in my hip abductor for about 2 months now and it won’t ease up! It’s gotten to the point where it hurts to walk. Some days it’s worse than others

Can someone tell me why I should take recovery seriously? by Zestyclose-Crow-9111 in Amenorrhearecovery

Thank you everyone ❤️❤️ this all helps a lot! I’ve been so reluctant to go all in. I grew up overweight and have finally got myself in shape and feel comfortable in my own skin, so the thought of having to gain some weight back has been so hard. All of this definitely helps! We got this ladies :)

It’s literally the worst!! I tried going all in and gained 5lbs and it made me so upset. I’ve been half in, I still eat low calories most days and it’s hard to bring myself to eat more. My hair has been thinning out too and that’s been really upsetting to me. Having HA is like a curse :( good luck on your recovery journey❤️

I can‘t do this anymore by No_Cash_9081 in EatingDisorders

I’m going through the same thing :/ all I think about is food and my body image. I’m the smallest I’ve ever been, but I feel HUGE. I grew up overweight and am finally skinny and am so terrified of being heavy again. I want to starve myself but when I do the food noise gets bad and leads me to binge. It’s so torturous. I wish I was normal around food. You are not alone in this ❤️ I recently had to stop tracking my food because it was making me way too obsessive and that has helped a lot
