    It's not just you. Your body loses a lot of iron during TOM so eating foods rich in iron might help a little.

    I have read that excercising during your menses can actually increase fat burning b/c of your higher levels of estrogen during that time. This info usually helps me to push a little harder on those days instead of skipping the gym for the couch since I know there is an advantage to gain.

    I have not heard that before. Definitely worth perservering with the exercise during TOM!
