I will be seeing a doctor about this issue, but before I do, I just wanted to see if this has happened to anyone else here!

My TOM cycle used to be semi-regular. It'd come once in every 4-7 weeks, and each TOM would last about 6-8 days (with extremely heavy flow. eeek).

Then exactly three months ago, I started eating healthy and exercising. My first month went by as usual. Then something weird happened: my TOM got split in half. Each period lasts 3-4 days, flow is much lighter, BUT I get it twice a month!!!

What in the world is going on? :explode:

    it could just be your body trying to regulate itself and it could take several months to get back to normal

    Yeah it can be weird like that....it happened to me this past month where it would start then stop, but it was super freaking heavy and I wanted to just cry. I hope its not like that next month. Let me know what the doc says.:drinker:

    Could have something to do with the exercising more so than the dieting, but give it a couple of months and check with the doc...
