recently i started low-carbing again, and i haven't had my period in about 7 weeks... it's normal for me to get my period a half a week-1 week late, but this is really late. i noticed this happened the last time i stopped eating carbs as well- my period didnt come for a while.
i also noticed that when i had the occasional carb-binge, my period would come sooner and much heavier....

i was wondering if anybody else had a similar experience....? is this normal? does anybody know why this happens?

i have pcos if that helps explain anything....

    I have noticed that TOM since I started Ketosis likes to show up late/early its freaking insane! I also have PCOS so I just take it for what its worth. Im not sure if it has anything to do with Ketosis in my case since the last 2 months I have been exp alot of stress at work :(
