Ladies, Don't Panic! HCG and Your Period

I'm going to be quite frank in this entry, though I realize for a lot of us ladies it can be an embarrassing subject.

The month after I did the HCG alternative drops, I had a late period. I was honestly a little freaked (as I'm sure you can understand, most of us have been there).

I began researching when I was a couple days late and came to the conclusion that it was not an unusual occurrence, even for women who are very regular. Losing weight as fast as you can on the HCG diet can cause you to not ovulate, or to ovulate late.

I started my period about two weeks after I was supposed to, so all is well in my orbit now. I wanted to write about this very personal topic for all of the women out there who want to do the HCG diet. I honestly had no idea about this side effect and I wanted to help prepare you guys, or at least ease your panic if it happens to you.

By the way, after doing the HCG diet over a month ago, I feel that my metabolism has been completely reset. I still eat quite reasonably and healthily, and I find that I just don't want a lot of junk food. It seems too rich and I just don't crave it. I have continued to lose weight slowly and I now weigh 192 pounds. Yay!

What has been your experience? Don't be embarrassed, we're all girls here! (Mostly) ^_^
