In reply to Emily. Hey lovely, Thanks for reaching out! :) The issue you are having is very relatable and I totally understand why it's not easy for you. Here are a couple of blog posts that Rachael wrote on this subject that you may find helpful. :) HOW TO STAY HEALTHY ON YOUR PERIOD SHOULD YOU EXERCISE DURING YOUR PERIOD? Once you realise how beneficial it can be, it could be enough to motivate you to push through hard days and continue working on your figure and health. :) Hope it helps! xx Love, Ana

Wow. It’s comforting to know other people have these same difficulties!

I have recently stopped my contraceptive pill as I was concerned that it was causing my headaches and chubby tummy, looks like your data matches! I know it is supposed to take 3 months or so before everything normalises, but I am still suffering with motivation to exercise around that time of month as I “just don’t feel right”. I follow your program but this throws my routine out. What do you do to pick up your mood and energy levels when you feel like this?

Hi lovely,
I’m sorry to hear about your struggles. :( Unfortunately we aren’t very familiar with this condition, so the best thing to do is seek professional guidance from your doctor or physio. If you’re suffering from hormonal imbalances we also recommend finding a good naturopath or an integrative doctor who will help you with the appropriate treatment.
Wishing you all the best! xx

Love,
Diana

Hello Rachel,
Do you know anything about autoimmune progesterone dermatitis? I sometimes get rashes on my face and private parts (or at least reddens) when ovulating and around my menstrual cycle, as well as headaches, foggy brain, inability to stay asleep, etc. Do you have any ideas on how to get rid of this? All I see are solutions like doing a liver detox to get rid of the hormone allergy but many of the cleanses sound very aggressive and time-consuming (working retail, school, and a child to raise make this quite difficult)! Any ideas and solutions would be amazingly helpful!

Hi lovely,
We recommend finding a good naturopath because they’re better at helping with hormonal issues than regular doctors.
It could take anywhere from 2 to 6 months to notice a significant difference.
I wish you best of luck hun! xx

Love,
Diana

Hello there, I recenlty about 9 months ago noticed weight gain (unexplained) and mood changes and tiredness etc. etc. I just now found out the lining if my uterus is thickened due to low Progesteron. It all makes sense now! Excercising and eating well nothing was working with the weight gain. My doctor put me on Progesteron, Can anyone tell me how long before I notcie a difference in how I’m feeling? Thank you
