Anyone else need more hours of sleep when they're on their menstrual cycle? 🙄 😒 😩 Do you do anything to combat this or just accept it's what your body wants?

Yes, I need more of everything on my period 🥹 I’ve found over the years that it’s much more relaxing to be on the same team as myself than to combat anything 🤺

Definitely. We generally have worse sleep quality during our periods (turns our hormone fluctuations impact our circadian rhythm!) Found this recap that links to a few studies and gives a few tips: https://www.risescience.com/blog/why-am-i-so-tired-on-my-period

The body is more vulnerable to stress when getting to menstruate (bc it’s biologically super energy intensive). I try to take it easy the week before period through day 1-2, otherwise I def notice. Also a post-period tonic to avoid anemia over time can help!
