    Lipotrim and menstural cycle

    Hi Peeps, just wondering what others have noticed about the changes in there menstrual cycle and how it affects there weight loss.Into my fifth week of lipotrim and went for my fourth weigh in the day after I had finished my period ( heavier and longer than usual)and was gutted to find I'd only lost a pound, as my period had finished I felt that could,nt be to blame, however I woke up this morning to find my period had returned along with the grumps and cramps ( it is very light, hardly anything at all) Hoping someone else out there can give me a bit of reasurrance this is normal and wondering if I will catch up next on the loss next week or if thats it, can I just expect to have a low loss every time its TOTM.

    Lipotrim can play havoc with our cycles for some reason. Regarding weight loss, try to look at your loss over the month, rather than weekly, easier said than done, I know!

    i had the same the last time I was on Lipotrim 4 years ago; bleeding mid cycle and then really heavy during actual periods. It did however settle down when I had come off lipotrim.
    Just had my period after second week on Lipotim and it dragged on for a while and was heavy but has finished now.
    i have heard of other people who periods stopped on Lipotrim or lightened, looks like no such luck for us!!

    since ive had my baby ive been on a pill that didnt give me bleeds at all....because of my size and weight the doctor prescribed that one for me. as i was to large to have a normal pill....

    didnt bleed for over two years ... 4weeks in on lipotrim and ive had two bleeds already ...

    i was coming off the pill anyways coz ive had the husband done *wink wink*.. i guess loosing the excess weight has made my body normal again...

    thats gotta be a good thing..

    im on the implant and dont have periods on it at all, used it for over 4 years, with a break to have my son who is 5 months now and then had another fitted, no period since baby born, 6 days on lipotrim and bled for a day, came off it and been off it 3 weeeks now and have had one long bleed whitch really annoyed me, coming back to lipotrim in next few days so hoping i dont bleed more



    Lost 3 stone on lipotrim last year, but regained it all back plus a little more
    As I went back on lipotrim a month ago and lost 6.5lbs ive left it on my ticker.

    Hi,

    This is also happening to me Apparently weight loss increases the amount of oestrogen being produced by the body, and this is why thin people are meant to be more fertile!

    So if your trying to lose weight to try for a baby (which I know alot are) its just proving its really working
    Attempt 2 of Dukan (Went of the rails beginning of November)

    Week 1 = -9lbs (TOTM midway though the week)

    I too have had problems. I had a Mirena Coil fitted in August and had only had one slight bleed but started very painful periods shortly after starting Lipotrim. They have become more regulare but extremely painful but if I am making more oestrogen as Malevolent suggests, it makes sense as the coil is meant to leach progesterone to counter balance the oestrogen. Bummer! Hopefully if will all settle down when I finish dieting and my body adjusts to being slim. I always thought it was because the body was in starvation mode and wanted to make sure that there wasn't going to be a pregnancy to support but that makes no sense at all now! Blonde moment! x

    This is my year to be Fabulous at 50!


    GOALSP
    1) To get under 15 stone - Done!
    2) To weigh less than my hubby! - Done! By a 2 stone so far!
    3) To get to 12 stone
    4) To be re-fed and maintaining weight by 29th August for Holiday.

    Well - I'm re-feeding well before my holiday But.....I still have 12lbs to lose.But.....I still have a few weeks to lose it so wish me luck!

    My first time around on TFR i bled from week 2 right through to week 22. Not heavy heavy but there. I saw the doc twice about it and was reasured it was normal. As your body is losing weight via an extreme diet and its a coping mechanism. It will sort itself out but i looked at it as a small price to pay to be slim


    Accomplishment comes to those who say "I can make it happen".

    Started LT TFR weighing 19st 6.5lbs
    Weeks 1-22 ~ 6st 10.5lbs gone
    Finishing Weight ~ 12st 10lbs
    Restarted TFR weighing 13st 13lbs
    (+1st 3lbs over summer)
    Weeks 1-9 ~ 2st 7lbs gone
    Finishing Weight ~ 11st 6lbs
    Total Loss on TFR = 8st 0.5lbs!!!
