    Has anyone else lost a substantial amount of weight and had major changes in your menstruation? 52 lbs. ago I hardly had any cramping at all and sometimes even skipped a month. I know this was because my body was so high in fat percentage. Now I am finding as I'm losing weight I am in so much more pain. Coincidence or is there a medical reason for it?

    Only times I know that a cycle could be changing is either pregnancy (stops entirely for nine months), stress (gets weird), or menopause (stops entirely). Nothing from weight gain or loss.

    I also exercise regularly 7 days a week and my diet is very clean now. I had a baby 7 months ago, maybe it's something to do with that. Guess it's time to head to the doctor grrrrrr

    I think having a baby changes the body all together. Every time you have a child it seems to mess with your cycle and through my experience my cramps have changed too. Before children they were horrible, after my first they lightened up and I didn't need meds, after my second..... cramps? whats that? :laugh:

    Other way around here. Cramps are lighter and my period is much lighter overall.
