Hi everyone, first time poster.
Over the last few months, I have noticed that I've been a lot more tired during my period.
It's gotten to the point where I'm literally asleep for 16-18 hours of the day for the first 2 days of my period. Obviously this makes a huge impact on my study and work time. When I don't have my period, I'm usually good on 7-8 hours of sleep, so I feel like my entire day is wasted whenever this happens.
Do any of you have suggestions on how I can increase my energy during these times? I thought of going for a jog today, but I felt so exhausted after just getting ready that I ended up flopping on the couch and taking a 4 hour nap.
