Heavy periods? Irregular periods? Painful periods? Menstrual problems? Bruise easily? Dysmenorrhea?

Do you have difficult times with menstruation? - Obviously, there are many possible causes for these problems and it may be that you need to see a gynaecologist or other specialist, but there are also very common causes which do not need specialist help.

A very common cause of bleeding problems and menstrual problems like this is dieting/'slimming'. - When you are not eating enough for your body's needs, your body has to feed on itself and so your skin gets thinner, your muscles and bones lose mass and get weaker, you lose some of your hair/eyebrows/eyelashes, nails get weaker AND THE WALLS OF YOUR BLOOD VESSELS GET THINNER/WEAKER and overstretched. - With weaker, more fragile blood vessel walls, bleeding and bruising will occur more readily and will be worse than they would otherwise be. Wounds will take longer to heal.

So if you have any of these bleeding/menstrual/period problems, and if you are dieting, please stop dieting right now! - If you want to lose excess weight, dieting is not necessary anyway: it doesn't work and is potentially dangerous. Do eat good meals; don't eat dieting junk. - Your body needs food - real food! You will not lose your excess weight by 'slimming'; you will only lose your health!

All that is normally necessary to lose excess weight is to eat less salt, i.e. to reduce one's sodium intake, and to eat plenty of fruit and vegetables and good food. Eating less salt will help a lot with the bleeding problems. - Good luck!

Lose weight and benefit your health in countless other ways by eating less salt! - Go on! - Try it! - You will feel so much better! - Lose weight!
