So you're not building up that lining.
Like those might don't just wait until you're missing your period entirely.
If the duration of your cycle starts to really shift or even like phase to phase, like obviously we talked about earlier that you can change month to month, but like
If you start to see these acute little differences in your cycle, you might be having menstrual cycle dysfunction, luteal phase deficiency, anovulation, all these fancy terms.
long before your body's not ovulating, you have ludial dephase deficiency and on now you actually have a menorrhea.
Like that is that is the final step.
And that's so I think that for so many women, they don't
uh you know, not everyone, but a lot of women don't even know what phase of their cycle they're in or when they're getting it.
Others period surprises them.
So, you know, the the first thing would be to have like some sort of cycle awareness of just knowing where you're at, what's normal for you.
But then paying attention to like when those things start to change a lot.
If they get really long or really short in cycle length that's abnormal to you or outside that normal range of like, you know,
If it starts you start to get a twenty-day cycle and you still get a twenty-eight-day cycle, that's a good sign, like, hey, maybe something under the hood isn't going on, or you start skipping cycles um, or all those little things underneath that is worth paying attention to rather than just waiting until you don't have your period for three months.
And the reason this is such a big deal to your point to the bone is like.
When girls and women go into low energy availability, the bone loss is incredibly significant.
It's fast.
It's very fast.
And even so, in order to regain your cycle, you typically have to gain more weight than you lost to get there.
You have to go past that, which can be really scary for a lot of highly active women.
But even up to 12 months after weight is restored and cycles restored, the bone density loss isn't fully restored.
