Ep.15/ First period after HA recovery: what’s normal (and why a late second can be common)
Getting your first period after hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) recovery is an emotional milestone, but what happens next? In this episode, I break down exactly what to expect so you can feel prepared and supported on your journey.
Here’s what you will learn:
- Why one period doesn’t automatically mean your cycles are fully back to normal
- The most common fears and misconceptions women have after their first recovery bleed
- The subtle (but powerful) signs that your body is continuing to heal
- Personal stories from both my own journey and a client’s - so you know you are not alone
This episode is for you if you are still waiting for that first recovery cycle or if you have already had your first, second, or even third bleed and want to understand what’s normal in the journey back to regular, healthy cycles.
Tune in for a mix of science, stories, and encouragement to help you navigate this exciting (and sometimes confusing) stage of HA recovery.
