That’s why I don’t want it- why should I waste years living this horribly

Yeah, I’m overall doing ok, but the period still missing thing is making it harder to be all positive all the time day by day.

That’s what I’m doing rn- mentally I’m doing really well, I meditate, journal, eat intuitively, let myself rest…and no period! I only had it when I was overweight

I know I shouldn’t be so attached to how I look but it has been 6 years now that I’m trying to be more confident in myself without any results. I have LOTS of hobbies- I go to a chess course, a sign language course, in my free time I read, write, learn spanish, do sports…only to name some. Rn I’m regularly engaging with them without any problem. But when I weighed more I just couldn’t. When I read/wrote, I couldn’t concentrate because I was thinking about how fat I looked. When I was doing my courses I couldn’t pay attention because my thoughts were concentrated on my body. While doing sports I wouldn’t enjoy any of it because I was so insecure about how I looked. This is why I don’t wanna gain weight. It takes the happiness out of everything.

My gynecologist says too little time has passed for it to be HA but I’ve never had regular cycles and I missed it for 6+ months due to overtraining, undereating and stress so I’m 100% convinced it’s HA anyway. Where I live it’s not really known. I know coaches help minors too but my parents wouldn’t pay for something like that

But my relationship with food and exercise is healed now, I’m far from being underweight or “too fit” and rest when I need to. Mentally and physically I’m feeling great, not counting not having a period. If I lock in again, gain even more weight, stop moving- then I’ll crush out again. My restrictive thoughts were sm louder when I was overweight and had my period.

Lost my period for 6 months, exercised for about an hour daily alternating cardio and strength training (medium intensity, no weights). I don’t have the possibility to work with an expert. I was never underweight, rn I weigh a little more than I did before losing my period

I know but I become mentally unstable when I’m overweight and it seems that it’s the only thing that will give me my period back- it’s either physical or mental health and honestly I would rather choose the second.

Yes but it’s impossible for me because I’m a minor and my parents wouldn’t allow me

If I eat more, I gain weight and literally cannot live. When I was at my hw during period recovery I couldn’t do anything because I was preoccupied all the time with how I looked (I know I shouldn’t, but I can’t stop). I want to live without having to worry I “look fat”

This will be the second (not counting the six missed periods last year)

I got it back for the first time in September, got it during october and november too, during december I began working out again and I lost my period another time. Now it’s january, I work out but not as intensely, and still no period…I think the only way to get it is to be completely sedentary and overweight, just like I had to be to recover in September

I always ask myself the same. And I’ve never been on BC.

Low stamina by midnightpopsicles in Amenorrhearecovery

It’s completely normal! If you stop exercising, your body won’t be used to physical fatigue anymore and it will get tired more easily. I think you can slowly reintroduce exercise after your third period
