    im not sure i agree yet. im moody and pmsing...but that means my cycle is now two weeks earlier.
  • I am the opposite. I have an IUD, so I haven't had a period in almost 8 years (total) and now every once in a while I will bleed a little. I figure it's gotta be my new regimen. Also, I've noticed I'm shedding a lot more hair in the shower. And not in the 'I'm starving myself to death, and killing my body way' but just in a 'my body is adjusting to my new and improved routine kind of way' I guess. Strange... Glad to hear I'm not the only one!

    I know my hormones are keeping me from losing weight. I had my IUD out to try to let my hormones balance and then I had 4 periods in 2 months. Still struggling to balance all the girl hormones and thyroid cause I'm working my butt off and not getting the results I should.

    It did for me too!!! I usually had my periods in the early 20s (of the month) and I just got it a few days ago O_O...
