I'm on Day 2 of the 5DPT and I have gotten my period....wait....I had it two weeks ago!  I have been very regular lately and this is quite a surprise.  Does anyone think that my sudden liquid diet has brought this on?  What gives?

are you on birth control pills?  Or patch?  I started having my period every 2 wks. I dont think liquid diets would cause that but you may want to visit your gyn.

That's odd...I never heard that before...but come to think of it, since I have cut way back on my calories/carbs....my TOM has been coming every 3 weeks rather than every month too...But I was also having anemia and deficiency problems...(No problem eating hearty and gaining weight...just malnutrition)  What a BUMMER!  I could now count all the vits and supps I take as a meal...LOL   I dunno what's up with that either...Bu****ch your iron if you continue having frequent periods!  Might actually up your Iron for now too...(I noticed you take tender iron...GOOD STUFF!!! )

I have no idea if the liquid diet brings it on but I haven't had mine since February!!!  I don't miss it at all but I know it's not normal???

Hi, my favorite drink, Having just reached the ripe old age of 48, I'm definately in peri-menapause--no fun, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks, take your pick!  Of course I'm on day 2 of the 5dpt and just got mine too.   Any major change to the body can bring it on...I always get it when I fly or when I have surgery.  go figure.
