Monthly Hemorrhage...was Hmmm.. question for Erica

[Guest guest]

Hi Erica,

 

" Extreme athletes " are called that because there are so few of them.

It is unfortunate that the pinnacle of health (or near pinnacle) can

be described as such. It's similar to describing a natural approach

to healing as " radical " when the mainstream injects chemotherapy,

applies radiation, eats pills, and succumbs to the knife as a matter

of course. No questions asked.

 

And, all we know about women " losing their cycle " is that there is no

blood. We know nothing about whether there was an egg in place and if

it merely reabsorbed after its time was over. When I read research

articles, the information that isn't there is as important (if not

more) than the information that is there.

 

Oh, and I still haven't found a natural Kotex. Maybe there used to be

a Kotex tree (can you imagine???) and now they are extinct from over

usage. Hehehehe. KIDDING!!!

 

Anyway, I hope this clarifies my post a bit.

 

Janet - a little nutty today

I always thought it was strange that a tiny little egg could cause

such an uproar on a monthly basis.

 

Janet - great use of language - 'cause an uproar' - LOL! Thanks for

the smile.

 

Low body fat percentage in extreme athletes does cause this, yes.

They are usually below the general recommendations for women, too,

though.

So is it a sign of great health then? It really is an interesting topic.
