Getting your period doesn’t mean your work in recovery is done!

We see this a lot: when a patient’s menstrual cycle returns, it can often feel like they are “done” with recovery. ⁠

‼️ But note: Periods can return early….even before someone’s recovery is in a solid place! ⁠

What does “Recovery” look like? ⁠

✔ Eating regularly and consistently throughout the day, roughly 3 meals and a few snacks

✔ Weight in a good range for your body, and able to maintain it.⁠

✔ Medically stable ⁠

✔ Peaceful relationship with food and exercise⁠

AND⁠

✔ Regular menstrual cycle (for biological females)
