Does anyone have any experience with this? Specifically, my diagnosis is looking like "hypothalamic amenorrhea", which from my understanding means that I'm not producing enough progesterone and estrogen to have my period.
My BMI is 21 - right in the range of normal, and though I don't know what my body fat % is, I certainly have extra! I trained an average of 10 hours per week for the first six months of the year, though it was more in the 7-ish hours in the winter, and into the 12-14 hr range in the spring.
If there is anyone who has experienced this, were you able to get your cycles to return through a reduction in physical activity? Gaining weight? And is there any chance of being able to continue training at all?
Thanks for your help!
