Menstruation during Running

2016/7/22 10:04:44


Question
hello. I would like to ask some questions about running and say something what about i'm worried.. so, 2 years ago i began running a lot.. (there was some personal problems) so i realise that running really helps me and i start to love it, but then i started to eat less or more healthier and i lost my menstruation.. these years i struggled with that and i don't know how to eat and run anymore.. i don't know how and what to eat.. everytime i have this one problem.. its seems so stupid but it's really important because right eating is very important for running, specially - for long distance running.. i really want run a lot but there comes that time when i am back from school i want to eat but then i realise that i can't eat before running, and i really need some advice  when is better time for running and eating as well.. please help me!

Dear Laura,

This Orthopedic Chicago Podiatrist located in West Loop 60661,Roscoe Village 60618, Elmhurst 60126 & Bartlett 60103 says...
For your question in regards to menstruation & running.Doesn't sound like like right eating-sounds like starvation. You need to increase your diet to resume your menstruation. You can have some fat (which is absolutely necessary) and still be healthy & lean. The new food pyramid is @ 60% carbs 30% protein & 10% fat. In your case perhaps 55% carbs, 35% protein & 10% fat. You can Google for foods & their calories in the groups & eat healthy from there. Calculate how many calories you are burning & always replace
Hope this helps & Good Luck!
