Irish and Gophers Team Up off the Ice
Jan 10, 2013, 10:10 AM EDT
After battling in Minneapolis on Tuesday night, the Notre Dame and Minnesota hockey programs teamed up on Wednesday.
The squads packaged more than 20,000 meals for kids in need at the Feed My Starving Children headquarters in Coon Rapids, Minn.
Though Notre Dame lost the game, the Irish emerged victorious yesterday, finishing 48 boxes, compared to the Gophers' 47.

FAA orders Boeing 787 Dreamliners grounded
Send this story to a friend
- Staff Cincinnati Business Courier
The Federal Aviation Administration ordered operators of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner to "temporarily cease operations" because of the risk of battery fires, the Puget Sound Business Journal reported.
The FAA issued an emergency airworthiness directive Wednesday because of an emergency landing of an All Nippon Airways 787 Dreamliner in Japan after the pilot got indications of a battery malfunction, followed by an activated smoke-warning light.
"Before further flight, operators of U.S.-registered, Boeing 787 aircraft must demonstrate to the Federal Aviation Administration that the batteries are safe," the FAA said in a statement.
Boeing CEO Jim McNerny released a statement saying the company is committed to supporting the FAA and finding answers as soon as possible.
GE Aviation provides engines for some 787 Dreamliners, but Rolls-Royce engines power the All Nippon Airways planes.
Evendale-based GE Aviation Systems, a unit of GE Aviation, supplies the 787's common core system that controls its primary computing environment and its integrated landing gear system that controls the deployment and retraction of the aircraft landing gears.

Electric Cabaret reminds me of being 17 and going to Manchester for a Marilyn Manson gig with a couple of my pals. Two of us turned up to get the coach at Glasgow Queen Street, in jeans and black t-shirts, to find that every single one of our co-travellers (including our other pal) dressed head to toe like extras from the Rocky Horror Show. It's the only time I've ever felt particularly awkward about my stiff upper lip.
I was a bit too pissed to fully appreciate the gig, but he played my favourite song so I left happy and all the other angsty adolescents were perfectly welcoming despite my more mainstream appearance.
Anyway, there seems to be a huge demand for shops like this in Edinburgh, with their part heavy metal, part saucy thing going on. This one ticks all the boxes for anyone whose parents just don't understand them and is a little more sanitised than some of its seedier rivals.
All present and correct then.
If you could capture Electric Cabaret's style in a film it would be John Waters - Cry Baby.
We're talking drainpipe jeans, leopard print daisy dukes, punk rock tee shirts, rock and roll tee shirts, polka dot blouses, beat up leather jackets, motorcycle belts, brothel creepers and drop-dead-gorgeous 1950s dresses.
Sadly for the ladies, there's no Johnny Depp lookalike with a tattooed tear.
I'm really not sure how to approach reviewing Electric Cabaret.
I Love unique, and independent shops - so Electric Cabaret ticks all the right boxes by being independent ans very unique indeed. A clothing store that supplies alternative styles, as well as jeweleries, trinkets and various other bits and bobs from hair dye and stationary and wooden owls (?) Electric Cabarat has everything it could possibly need for its customers and thier styles. Kind of gotthy/punk chique. Hell, one of the staff even looks like the long lost twin of a certain famous Pirate of the Carribean.
The trouble is that despite having all of these items for sale, I have never found anything that I have ever actually wanted to buy - its more like a museum of curiosities than a shop - its just all a bit odd, rubbish or too out there. On saying that though, I really am not the type of person who can pull off this style, so I'm not really one to judge whether this stuff is fashionable.
If you like having a unique style and need a unique shop to get it from, this is your place!
Sort of like Osiris in Glasgow, and a cross between that and Cult, but just not my type of place at all.
Saying that, I liked some of the kitsch jewellery that was on sale, and it was really inexpensive, but apart from that, I was left wanting.
If you're into the skater/goth scene, then I'm sure you'll find some cool t-shirt, baggy pants or scary looking hat in here, but if not, then it's just a room full of stuff.
I actually thought it was a kids store because of the bright, pirate themed exterior, but unfortunately, it wasn't as interesting as that!
It saddens me that I'm veering away from this kind of style to something more tame - never thought I'd see the bloody day I'd ditch the leopard leg warmers! But I still really like Electric Cabaret, and think it has that little bit more to offer than the usual ten-a-penny emo type stores.
Selling jeans for guys and broads from Tripp. Jist, Rock Steady and so on, Electric Cabaret specialise in skinny jeans, loud leopard print dresses and Manic Panic hair dye. There are some cute psychobilly dresses and zombie B Movie inspired tees for guys. A bit like Voodoo on Cockburn Street but with a bit more variety.
They have some lovely, chunky jewellery in here that has balls and makes a statement. Prices vary from decent to more expensive, but their jeans and dresses will last a lifetime. They stock the creme de la creme of scene and punk brands.
Keeping a bit more old school, I like this place since it's not emo, although there are sure to be some clothes in here that would appeal to people who like that fashion. But it's a good mix of everything, and always has been. I used to live in here when I was younger and loved making the trip through to treat myself to a new rockabilly skirt. I don't buy as much stuff like that now but I still love their massive heels and sexy dresses!
To the girl behind the counter with the green hair - I love it!
I'll put aside my loathing of all things 'Emo' especially for this shop.
Electric Cabaret stocks all the grungy jeans, unusual accessories and black coloured tops you'll ever need for the Gothic or Emo dress senses, although I reckon this place has firmly shifted to the Emo clothing scene as of late.
The staff, unlike so many similar stores, don't have an anti-society attitude: They're chatty and informative and seem to be welcoming to anyone who walks in.
Don't be fooled by the colourful exterior though, inside it's the complete opposite.
If I were 16 I would probably be in this shop every weekend, picking up some form of band patch or some form of studded accessory. Since growing up and becoming slightly less of a rock kid I shop in these places less often but still pick up a gem here and there. Electric cabaret is exactly what you'd expect from a rock clothing store, there is a load of black, red and white, with occasional flashes of electric pink or cream peeking out of a clothes rail. There are fishnets, tutus, hoodies, jeans with a ridonkulous amount of buckles and gothic / hardcore t-shirts.
As well as this they have a load of accessories, belts, necklaces, bracelets, sunglasses etc, and a pretty big selection of make up. The best part of the shop though is that you can get shoes here that is is almost impossible to buy anywhere else, including T.U.K.s that used to be a staple of my weekend uniform. The shoes here are genuinely cool, and most rockabilly themed, but can be paired up with many different styles. Also if they do not have a style that you want, you can give them the details and they will order them in for you.
The clothes aren't massively cheap but few of these niche stores are. The staff are great as well, especially if you get served by Captain Jack Sparrow. Go in and you'll see what I mean
This shop is tiny but tardis like. It has an amazing range of punky, gothy, scenester, emo clothing. You can find some bargains here but most of their prices are pretty par for the course. The staff are nice but perhaps a bit over zealous on the can I help you front. If you buy lots of things they will give you discount. I even got a discount because they kept me waiting so long. (their opinion not mine) There's always a nice vibe and even oldies like me are made to feel most welcome.
Electric Cabaret has a huge amount of stock in a very small space. For one-off punk/rock pieces to liven up an outfit its perfect. Or buy your whole outfit from here if that is your style! Prices are pretty much the same as all other stores of this sort in Glasgow and Edinburgh. The do clothes, shoes and accessories. Staff are always super-helpful and really friendly.
Out of date as its no longer here!

A sign of the times! Man United fan on Reddit switches to Chelsea during Swansea defeat
- Updated: January 6, 2014
This is not the first time this season that we have seen a Manchester United fan formally switch his allegiance from the side that was previously the dominant force in English football.
See: A sign of the times?! Manchester United fan formally switches to supporting Arsenal!
Today, there are suggestions on Reddit, the social news and entertainment website, that a Manchester United fan attempted to switch his allegiance to Chelsea during the latest home defeat to Swansea.
According to the individual Reddit pages for Chelsea and Manchester United, the Reddit user "/u/Baba_Booeys_Teeth" first started complaining about the FA Cup clash with Swansea.
Before specifically hammering Danny Welbeck and then he went off to write to the Chelsea subreddit how he would like to join them instead!
Now the post has been deleted and the Reddit user no longer exists. Probably due to the public shame of trying to change teams on a public forum…
Pretty stunning stuff!

Far back in the very beginning weeks of this blog, I wrote a long series of articles on the sources of infertility. In terms of the kinds of infertility caused by diet and lifestyle, there are two primary categories: PCOS and Hypothalamic Amenorrhea. Long time readers of this blog know that I believe the relationship between these two disorders is much more complicated than regular doctors and medicine would have us believe. Nonetheless, while I was writing about PCOS and HA (read more about HA here and here and here), I promised to write a post on how to overcome HA.
I never did.
The reason I didn't write it is because the answer is both way too complex and way too simple. I couldn't come up with anything coherent to say.
Hypothalamic Amenhorrhea is the fancy way of saying "stress-induced loss of menstruation." The hypothalamus is the part of the brain that determines if you are in a safe enough environment to bear children. If your body receives signals that you are not "safe" enough, then your hormone production will decrease and you will stop menstruating. You may also suffer symptoms of low libido, depression, anxiety, insomnia, acne, and fatigue.
"Safe" means both physiologically and psychologically. Mental stress can hurt your fertility just as much as physical stress. Unfortunately, these two stressors commonly occur in women today, and commonly in paleo dieters. Mental stress comes from pressure and ambition and work and life as well as body image issues, low-self-esteem, and disordered eating. Physical stress comes from low body fat levels, rapid fat loss, excessive fat loss, fasting, over-exercising, under-sleeping, and under-eating. It's no wonder that so many women struggle with this.
Estrogen, progesterone, LH and FSH — all female hormones — decrease with hypothalamic stress. LH and FSH come directly from the pituitary and fall off the wagon, and then estrogen and progesterone, which take their cues largely from LH and FSH, fall off of it, too.
Can it be overcome?
Is it easy?
Not always.
The thing about HA is that its severity and "cure" are different for each woman. The trick is to address all of the kinds of stress that play a role in HA, and to focus on the type of stress that caused your problem in the first place.
For example: say you recently dropped from 130 to 110 pounds. The primary problem — the thing that if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck, so stop fighting the reality of your weight loss — is that you lost too much weight too fast. Your body couldn't keep up with your changing leptin levels. And you likely underate calories and gave your body starvation signals while you were losing. So that needs to take precedence. You also, however, exercise a fair bit and have a fairly stressful life. To that end, you should also reduce your exercise, work on your priorities and your stress level, and be sure to eat as much as you need to. Address all of the ways in which you can increase your body's detection of "safety." Focus on perhaps gaining a little bit of weight back, however, since that was your primary "problem." The faster you can convince your body you are no longer starving, the faster you'll regain hormone balance and fertility.
Other women, on the other hand, might have to focus on stress, or might have to give up marathoning for a while.
HA is all about convincing your body that it's no longer in danger. It doesn't need to stress. It doesn't need to shut down hormone production to prevent a poorly timed pregnancy. So you have got to nourish it as best you can. Err on the side of over versus under eating. Dial down your exercise — particularly the sprint based kind — and do only what feels comfortable. Stop pushing through being so tired. Don't wake up in the morning to an alarm after a short night's sleep to go for a run. Be sure to eat plenty of carbohydrates — at very minimum 100 grams of carbohydrate a day — and make sure to eat even more if you are an athlete. Learn to move more slowly, to eat more gently, to be less hard on yourself. Relax, eat, relax, eat, relax, eat, repeat. Don't eat garbage– no way! Some women do, and find that their fertility comes back. But go wild with your diet, and eat as much as you are craving. Your body has been starved, and it's important to respond to hunger signals when you have them. That is, if you want your fertility back.
To that end, there's a simple answer to HA:
-Eat more. Relax more. Repeat.
On top of that, we can get more specific:
-Focus on nutrient-rich foods that support healthy hormone production. Liver, egg yolks, other organ meats, bone broth, leafy greens, fruits, and vegetables are all great.
-Make sure to eat plenty of fat. At minimum 40 grams a day. This amounts to approximately three tablespoons of your favorite paleo oil (such as coconut oil) — one for each meal. Including saturated fat is particularly helpful since it is the backbone of hormone production.
-Make sure to eat plenty of carbohydrates. Your body can think it's starving if it doesn't get enough for a significant period of time. Eat at least one piece of fruit or serving of starchy carbs with every meal. Make sure to do more on active days.
-Eat when you are hungry. Do not go hungry. Ever.
-Only exercise when you feel energetic and excited to do so, and refuel appropriately afterward.
-Do not sprint more than a couple of times a week.
-Consider eating a fuck ton of calories. Many women have spent ages on different forums learning about what works, and debating how many calories should be eaten at any given point in time. Some argue you need as many as 3000 calories a day to recover. Others assert 2000. I wouldn't go crazy, but consider the fact that there's a good chance you are undereating relative to your needs.
-Consider weight gain. Anywhere from 1 pound to 10 might be necessary, or 30, depending on where you are. How much did you weigh when you stopped menstruating? Is it much more than where you are now? How much more? What else was going on in your life? You may need to close the gap a bit between where you are now and where you stopped menstruating in order to do so again. Each woman's body is different and requires a different level of fat to feel safe and be fertile.
-Sleep as much as possible. 9 hours a night!
-Consider supplementation. Magnesium supports hormone production. Calcium is helpful with the magneisum. Take the magnesium and calcium in a 1:1 or 1:2 (at most) ratio. Vitamin D can support functions with magnesium and calcium. Fermented cod liver oil will never hurt.
Which is all that I've got. I know it's a lot and also a little at the same time. Hypothalamic amenorrhea is all about you and your body and your own particular needs. You've got to think deeply about the kinds of stress you might be dealing with, and then go ahead and rectify it.
And then give it time.
It takes time to recover from this sort of thing. Hormones don't leap ahead of us, they follow behind, peaking around all of the corners, making sure it's safe before they come out and play. I can say, however, that your recovery will be faster the more you nourish yourself, the more you eat, and the more you relax. You can go more slowly if you are fearful of the process. This is what I did. And it's good — the body learns to adjust to new leptin levels over itme. But know that it takes longer the more slowly and cautiously you move forward with your hypothalamus.
I highly recommend checking out the Fertile Thoughts forum on hypothalamic amenorrhea. It contains 108,000 posts and counting. Women all across the world come to this forum to share their experiences with HA and infertility. Definitely worth the read if you're interested in HA at all.

Thank you for this well written article! I wish I'd had it this time last year. I switched to a Paleo lifestyle a few months before we decided to remove my IUD to TTC. Unfortunately, my Paleo diet was toooo low carb for me. I lost lots of weight. By the time I had the IUD out, I was no longer menstruating. Took me six months to gain my fertility back. Luckily for us, we conceived the very first regular cycle I had! Well on our way to a cavebaby and doing a much better job with a balanced (but still Paleo) lifestyle. Every woman needs to read this!
How are you doing this? I'm not paleo but a true blue mess really. Oh my.
Would love to hear some things you changed to gain your fertility back! I stopped BC 6 months ago and have no had a period since and we would very much like to have a baby. I know it is a combo of not eating enough carbs and calories and also this past year was extremely stressful with both of us starting new careers/jobs. Any tips would be appreciated!
Thank you for sharing, it gives me a lot of hope
I was on the same way almost 1 year. Eating paloe doing IF some days, work out running doing HIT.
So I can help you to give my advice what has helped me to return my period back and my fertility and happy pregnancy.
When I slow down work out it does not help I have to stop running doing HIT and I have just walked a lot doing yoga no stressful work out even one day a week no sprint relax walk yoga strech nothing else.
Do no IF eat when you are hungry no skipping meal nor forcing yourself to do IF just because you have READ IT IS GREAT FOR HEALTH no it is not good for fertility at all. I eat more starches I mean lot more fruit squash sweet potato even sometimes quinoa or millet I am not afraid of starches anymore. So at least 2-3pieces of fruit and big starches at dinner(2 sweet potato big squashes ) I was skinny, loosing 7 pounds in low carb paleo was a lot for my body also stressfull workout. I love running HIT and workout but I HAVE TO ADMINT THAT MY BODY DOES NOT. I am pregnnat right now and very happy do not stress your body when you want baby walk eat do not stress about food, eat real food protein fat and carb too!!!
Thanks so much for this post! I've been dealing with HA for almost two years, I feel like I'm in that waiting period now where I have gained a lot of weight back (over 30lbs) and reduced my exercise but I know that every day stress is still an issue I need to address. I will say for any women out there afraid to gain weight and reduce exercise – I know how scary that thought it, I was so afraid I'd balloon back to my pre weight loss weight of 210lbs, but rather I've become more relaxed with food and enjoy life a lot more. I love my curves and couldn't imagine being any other way now. HA was a wake up call for me to get back to a better balance. I am hopeful it's just a matter of time for me now. Oh and I have heard that some people have found seed cycling helpful, would be interested in your thoughts on that.
Thank you so much for this Stefani! I'm going to really focus on trying to reduce the stress I put on myself. The perfectionist in me needs to die b/c she's messing up my hormones and fertility. This article touches on the very truths that any PCOS/HA (or healthy/normally functioning!) woman needs to face especially in this world of constant comparison on who's the fittest/skinniest/strongest/smartest/whatever.
VERY well written, thanks for that. Also I just discovered your website and I LOVE it. I love what you wrote in your Mission Statement – I think I need to re-read it. Much love to you.
Hi "Pepper"
I've read your blog for a long while now and am…lost. I very much admire your writings and respect/trust them . You seem intelligent and well-researched/educated. I'm 32 and my gut-metabolism-hormones are a MESS…not overweight but chronically fatigued and not exercising and …binging every.single . night. I feel like its' too late and I've gone "too far" and all is lost. If you could email me that'd be great. I emailed you, but I never know if spam catches me or not Please do email…would SO appreciate it…need just some thoughts and ..a friend. (and this article very appropriate for me in a way).
Great post! I dealt with this issue for years, eating paleo and everything.
All that you said was spot on except I don't agree with your carb recommendation. I'm sure this is perfect advice for many, but then you got people, like me for example, who get their cycle back by actually going ketogenic with their diet. It took upping the fat and actually lowering the carbohydrates to flip the internal switch over here.
Its yet another complication to something already so complex-that we women are all sssoo similar, yet ssssooo different!:)
Hi Ashley,
How long after upping your fat intake and lowering your carb intake did it take to flip the switch? I have HA and hypothyroidism and I believe this may be what will help me. I've been eating this way for a week and feel great.
Thanks! Hope you are well!
I love this. So so much. seriously–eating a fuck ton of calories and RESTING is the sanest, simplest advice anyone could possibly give, and yet it's the least likely advice you'll see pretty much anywhere on the internet.
The question I'm struggling with now is, what happens when you've eaten a fuck ton of calories, massively dialed down the exercise, included more carbs with each meal and gained back 20 lbs (which is 15 lbs heavier than you were when you lost your period to begin with)?
I guess the stress piece is going to be the hardest to finally heal…it's definitely a frustrating process (which, ironically, leads to more stress). What do you do when it seems like the cycle will never end (and that you'll never get your cycle back)?
Thanks for this post Stefani! I have been on a pretty rough HA journey over the past year and a half. In April of 2012 I went off of bc and only have one very light period over the first year. At about the same time, my husband left for a year long deployment and my parents split after 32 years together. After several visits to the gyn without answers and a chronic sinus infection (lasting almost 6 months) I looked into other options and stumbled upon your website. I kept reading about incorporating more carbs but I was afraid to do so at the cost of gaining more body fat (ironically stressing over eating less carbs/calories was probably making my body hold on to what I was eating). In may, after being told the only option for me would be another sinus surgery and still not having a regular cycle I did some more research and found cranial sacral therapy. I am not sure exactly how it works or if maybe it is just the mental trick I needed to get myself to relax but since i started going my cycle has come twice, I no longer take any sinus meds, I'm okay with eating more carbs and off of my anxiety medicine. I would highly recommend this to anyone with a situation like mine! I'm hoping to see continued improvement…thanks for your great posts and encouragement!
I am 22 years old and have had my period for a total of one year of my life. I struggled with an ED and at 5'7″ 87 lbs I wondered if I would ever get back to normal. I am now back to my healthy weight where I first started my period buuut… Still nothing… How long should I wait until I start to get worried? I want so badly to be able to have children later in life and I am afraid that the damage is too much
Hi Stefani,
I am wondering if you have any insight with my situation. I nursed my son for 22 months and stopped 6 months ago. My period still has not returned. I had my thyroid tested and the results were that it is normal. I was told to wait it will come back but I am not digging that answer. I assume the same principles you mention apply to me, eat more carbs, exercise less, supplement with magnesium (I think I will add that to my regime) . I was just wondering if waiting answer is legit or do you know something more?
"-Consider eating a fuck ton of calories."
Thank you so much for this post and for all your work. As I said to my boyfriend, reading it is like hearing your mother tell you everything is going to be alright.
I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the use of Maca Root for help with hormone regulation? I'd heard it helped regulate cortisol levels and in turn reproductive hormones. Also I have been diagnosed with HA but because I don't want to get pregnant at current, my doctor put me on birth control to help prevent osteoporosis. I'm trying to put what you've advised into effect but what are your thoughts on OCP for women who have HA. Does it down regulate estrogen like soy does? Anything else I should do to help prepare my body for pregnancy in the future?
I had an ED and was eating "normally" for 2 years without getting my period back. I read some of Matt Stone's articles on refeeding and decided to try it. I started getting raw milk and found I absolutely craved the stuff. I would make smoothies with it and would have 2, 3 or sometimes 4 a day in addition to meals. I gained quite a bit of weight, about 30 lb over my "healthy weight", but my period came back within 2 months and has stayed regular ever since.
Thanks for sharing this! After struggling with amenorrhea for almost a year and a half, I feel compelled to share my story. I'm 26 years old and went through a period of excessive dieting and exercising (obsessive calorie counting, cardio everyday). After months of being extremely depressed, irritable, low libido and just plain unhappy I decided to stop my birth control. Only to find out that my periods had stopped. In an attempt to find answers I consulted my ob gyn, a functional medicine practitioner, an acupuncturist and a fertility specialist. I avoided all my food sensitivities, gained 20+ pounds, drank all my herbs and took my BBTs but no periods. My fertility specialist prescribed me 3 weeks of estradiol and 1 week provera and that was the only time I got my period after a year. But when I didn't get it again after that, I gave up. I thought I would never get my period again naturally. So I stopped seeing my acupuncturist, ate whatever I wanted, stopped exercising and basically said, "Fuck it". And a month after that I got my period. I know it sounds too good to be true but trust me gaining weight and all the anxiety that comes with that was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do and still is. But knowing that my body is healing makes it worth every pound. There is a light at the end of tunnel!!
We have such similar backgrounds! I am 26 suffer from low libido, no cycle, and only get my period when I do the provera challenge. I don't cycle naturally. How did you finally get to the "just fuck it" point? I still work out, try to eat healthy, and am very conscious of my weight.
I've had HA for the past 6 years. I've tried gaining 10 lbs, reducing stress (hard when you are a midwife), eating more carbs, eating less carbs, exercising differently…nothing has worked so far. After hitting the wall, finally, suffering from serious adrenal fatigue, I finally sought out the help of a functional medicine doctor. Turns out I have little to no estrogen/progestrone/dhea left in my system (tested via blood/saliva), my amino acid profile is deficient in almost everything (I'm not converting food into amino acids) and my cortisol curve is flat. I also found out I have osteoporosis in my lumbar region and osteopenia in my pelvis (at the age of 33). The MD said if it wasn't for my spotless paleo diet, she couldn't see how I could function!
I'm starting bioidentical estrogen/progesterone/7-keto DHEA this week in addition to IV nutrition therapy and compounded amino acids. Do you have any suggestions to help aid my healing? Any experience with these bio-identicals? I tried traditional HRT about 5 yrs ago and didn't last 2 wks on them…they were HORRID and felt totally unnatural. Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks for all that you do!
Great Post! Man did it take me forever to get my period back. 5 years between the ages of 25-30! I definitely had to gain back A TON of weight, and now being a bit overweight is slightly uncomfortable to me, but nothing compared to the hell I put myself through with eating disorders and being totally inflamed, sensitive and devoid of hormones through my late tens and twenties.
Truth be told I look back on what I thought was a normal weight and I was DEFINTIELY underweight, for many years. Body dismorphia is a real thing, whether its self imposed, brought on by family or other social pressures, it can reeeaalllly fuck up your head.
I ended up gaining 60 pounds. SIXTY, and now weight at least 30 over the most I have ever weighed before….and I am still just chunky and not really all that huge.
The only cavet I have is for ladies with SUPEr sensitive blood sugar, there is definitely no way I could eat fruit or a starchy veggie for each meal, it would totally blow my BS out of the water. My period actually came two weeks after the my weight was up and I dropped the few carbs I was imbibing in. I had been hanging onto carrots and parsnips because I worked on an organic carrot and parsnip farm, as soon as those went out my blood sugar stabilized and my moon time returned in all of its glory!
7 moons later and I am feeling the surges and cycles of hormones again! It's truly like puberty, with thoughts and emotions getting a little skewed from time to time and its beautiful and amazing to have gone through all of this and then back. I feel more feminine then I have in my whole life. I love my boobs and ass, although I miss having as much muscle as I used to, because without hormones and with being super skinny in the past and letting it get so out of hand that I was very much at the verge of adrenal failure, I lost a lot of muscle tone. So much for all those times I pushed myself when I should have been resting, relaxing and recognizing and honoring that my energy was being drawn from the wells of my anxiety and not truly balanced energy. I wont do that again, I can tell the difference now.
My weight is the last thing on my mind, being balanced, fertile and healthy definitely out weight giving a shit what size jeans I wear. Not only did my fertility and mensus come back, I am so mentally stable I don't really recognize myself. I am calm, happy, pleasant….my life is still shitty as always but it doesn't phase me……my body feels safe, it knows its safe, and my mind reacts accordingly:) Amazing! Thanks for helping women along this journey and sharing your own Stephani!
Just a little side note, I didn't loose weight when I stopped all carbs, I just ate more fat Now I can do one meal a day with carbs, dinner usually has jicama and that's plenty.
Taking a good food based multivitamin helped, as did eating a ton of seaweed, especially dulse, which is high iodine, and taking some of the other cofactors(zinc, selenium, b vitamins, vitamin c). I truly believe orthomolecular nutrition is key to allowing your body to heal and replace lost or imbalanced minerals.
I tried all types of other shit in the beginning, DHEA, desiccated glands, etcetcetc…those only made my body more out of balance and confused.
Focusing on whole and raw fats, including raw egg yolks and dairy(and meat! but I'm weird) makes me feel truly vibrant, making sure they are local and organic is the only way to know they are safe and wholesome.
Moderation and consistency are also some of the best medicine, as well as chilling the fuck out and lowering perfectionist expectations….
Thank you so much for blogging about this! I had HA in 2010/11 and there was almost nothing on web as clear as this blog post about the causes and the best treatment. I am so happy to see people giving and accepting advice to JUST EAT AND NOT EXERCISE. I finally followed this advice in 2011 after 7 months of HA, got my period back and got pregnant on our first try.
Now I am TTC again and post breastfeeding my body is off again. While it is frustrating, I am trying to remind myself that it's my body's way of saying that it needs to be READY to carry a baby. While it is SOOOO tempting to jump back into hard working out & dieting, I know I need to eat more, move less (ha ha) in order to get back into baby making shape.
That being said, I am trying to eat cleaner since giving birth so I am trying Paleo. What carbs are the best to eat daily? And should I aim for 100-200 carbs a day? Just want to be sure that I don't under carb myself. I think my body likes this extra fat and protein but with all the extremely low carb bloggers out there, it is hard to figure it out.
Thank you for being so focused on women.
Also wanted to mention something – for people who have had EDs in the past and now are struggling to get pregnant.
I don't have any research on this but one of my better doctors told me that if you had an ED with HA in your developing years, (like 14-18), your brain has become even more wired to go to that shut down place. Like another poster said, it could take gaining MORE weight and exercising EVEN LESS than other women. For this reason I think it is so important to listen to your body and not compare yourself to others while trying to get out of HA.
Hi Everyone,
I have really enjoyed reading all of your comments. I had an eating disorder which caused my cycle to stop, then it came back normally, went on BC for 5 years (cycle was like clockwork due to the pill), stopped taking BC September 2009 and no cycle. Went to the doctor was diagnosed with HA. I still don't get my period 4 years later. I would like to take the most natural route if I can. I am considering changing my diet, I do eat fairly healthy currently. Any ideas? ALL ideas would be appreciated. Thank you!
Steph –
I recently read the book, Diet Recovery, by Matt Stone and it has really been helping me get my body & mind back on track naturally. I think Stephanie mentioned Matt Stone and when I researched his ideas online, his message hit home with me. He has done a lot of research and has helped a lot of people recover from disordered eating, over exercising and a slow metabolism. He basically tells you to eat when you are hungry and eat whatever you want. This will help boost your metabolism and get your hormones working again.
Like you, when I went off the pill, it took me a while to get my period back. NOTHING worked, even meds from doctors, until I started eating A LOT more and slowing down. I got pregnant about 5 months after I stopped counting calories, eating "healthy" and running.
I still struggle with disordered thoughts about food and body image but Matt Stone and other NON diet fans have been helping lately.
Good luck!
Stefani – I ran across your blog while doing some research on HA and PCOS and have read it from top to bottom – it has been very helpful and informative. I am 29 years old have struggled with infertility for over 2 years now. I am currently in the middle of my 4th FET (after 2 Fresh IVF cycles) and have always been a super responder to fertility meds. At this moment, I have 14 high graded, genetically tested normal embryos in the freezer. Up until recently, it was thought that I had PCOS solely because of the appearance of my ovaries. Now, my RE thinks that I respond more as HA. Really, neither make a lot of sense as I am of normal weight, not insulin resistant, and my FSH (below 1), LH, estrogen and progesterone levels are all very low. I do work out and watch what I eat but it's not obsessive (5'6″, 145 lbs) and in my adult life I haven't been below 130 lbs. I completely agree that doctors don't know how these two conditions relate and have heard several times that you can't be both.
I recently found out that I'm allergic to gluten so have tried very hard to cut that out of my diet. Do you have much experience with gluten and its effects on HA, PCOS and infertility? I've tried it all, from metformin to acupuncture to cutting out carbs to eating anything and everything (gaining about 10 lbs in the process) to barely working out…nothing has worked to start my cycle. Is there anything that stands out to you as to what is going on with me?! I know you are not an MD, but you are certainly well informed and knowledgeable on these topics and I welcome any advice and insight you can give!
Thanks in advance!
Thank you!!!
Ok ladies I need some help! So you can see my history from above. A couple of months ago I started to eat a clean plant based diet after watching forks over knives, to see if I could get my cycles to return. During this time I went on vacation and got off the plant based diet. After reading other posts I then tried eating what I want when I want it. Two weeks later my period started!!! Know I don't know how to eat to keep they cycle going for next month. Was it the clean eating or eating what I want?
Stephanie, do you know anything about the relationship between HA, and bone loss/premature osteoporosis? I would appreciate any information you have, as clear opinions and facts on this have been difficult to come by.
It's been a year since I last got my period. I raised my caloric intake and dialled down the exercise but still nothing, thing is I'm already 15 lbs overweight to begin with (according to my BMI) so I can't tolerate the idea of gaining. Any ideas?
I just returned from 7 months of being a cavewoman- living in the woods, eating strict paleo, lots of exercise, lots of fasting, lots of fun and LOTS of stress. I stopped my monthly bleeding after the first month! I also lost quite a bit of weight (age 20, 5'7, from 135 eventually to 112) and gained a lot of muscle. Hypothalamic amenorrhea sounds like my situation exactly. This article is very helpful- I am very afraid of gaining weight however!!! I've been very hungry since returning to civilization, have had some binges on junk foods and whole foods. I do want to gain a little weight, but in a healthy way. I am exercising a lot less, but still more active than I used to be. I am afraid that I'm just going to balloon like crazy and lose all my muscle and feel horrible all the time like I used to. I am still under a lot of stress, worrying about my health and what I'm going to do with my life. I also feel like I don't have a lot of people to spend time with and talk to, and none that have shared any similar experience. To say the least, it is a hard time for me. Your blog has been very helpful in my search and work toward self love and optimum health. Thank you!!
I am really happy to read all of these, i have been really scared lately. i was thinking that i had PCOS but i was cofused because i didnt have other symptoms of it. I have had my period 4 times since menarche(i was 16 years then), i am 19 now and its been 9 months since i last saw my period. I normally don't eat all the time even when i may be hungry because i am scared of becoming fat, i don't want to be fat.i have this cold that never stops and i am mostly tired, i do my exercise 5 times a week and i barely get 6 hours sleep every night. From all you have put down here ,i think i am going to give it a break , eat, relax, though it will make me feel lazy, i don't mind, i wanna be a mum someday.thank you so much, keep doing what you're doing.
Hi all,
I'm in a similar situation. I had two years of strict dieting and 7/days a week intense exercise and haven't had a period since the beginning. For the last 3 months I have been eating 2500 calories a day minimum and walking 30 mins a day with a little yoga here and there and still nothing I have gained nearly 10Kg now. Stress levels are not too bad. I'm at a loss with what to do…
I am 19 years old and have not had my period for about 9 months. I had been very regular before this. About exactly 9 months ago, I lost about 15 pounds that I put on freshman year of college by eating a low-carb diet. I still ate plenty of food, lots of vegetables, but just cut out the desserts, pastas, breads, etc. It worked great and I was very happy! But my periods have stopped altogether. My gyno says its stress-induced. I took a low dosage of progesterone to stimulate my period, but it did not work. I am now on a higher dosage to induce my period. I am very upset, however, because I have put back on 10 pounds that I had lost. I am still eating low-carb though – why is the weight coming back? Is my body trying to gain weight to allow me to get my period? very confused and frustrated.
Hi Jen, basically the exact same thing happened to me. I lost the "freshman 15″ by eating clean and exercising more. Progesterone also didn't work for me…It will not work when your body isn't producing estrogen. I'm not sure why our bodies would suddenly stop producing it. Hormone therapy made me feel awful, so I'm not doing it anymore. I'm trying a high protein, high fat, low sugar diet right now, but do need the complex carbs, since I'm mostly vegetarian and need those amino acids. I have not gained any weight, though. Have you had any success with any diet you've tried?
This is the best article I could find about the condition on Internet and thank you for taking time to write it. I struggle with it too and due to the work, it is difficult to admit that there are limits to one's energy.
It is a brilliant article. Thank you. Every day is an opportunity to start differently.
I must also say thank you for this post. Still working on getting my period back which has been absent for 1 year now. It stopped when I stopped taking pills, so I think that is one factor. But I have also lost weight non stop for a year, but I've been super healthy all the time so part of me feel like it's so unfair! I have been stressed quite a lot though that is what I'm working the most on now and I'm not trying to loose weight anymore. Working out 3-5 times a week, ballet beautiful exercises and running sometimes. I have decided to swap to yoga soon and walking instead to really slow down even though it's not what I want. Oh well health comes first, hopefully this will help. I am also seeing a naturopath right now who's giving me herbs and other directions. Fingers crossed!
Your stuff is AMAZING! One question though: I've always been a tiny thing, and I got my period at 13 only weighing about 100lbs I'd guess. (at 5'4″). People actually thought I looked anorexic (instead I just ate junk food and remained scrawny.) At about 15, after the divorce, I suffered with various disordered eating patterns throughout my life. My periods were irregular over that time, sometimes seizing for 3 months (when I was really stressed), but cramps were barely noticeable and the cycles were light. By 23, I had exhausted my resources apparently: I had adrenal fatigue (low cortisol) & subclinical hypothyroidism. 18 months later with help from a fan-freaking-tastic integrative nurse here in Colorado, hormones are back online. I get my period but the cycles are not regular. My cramps are CRIPPLING like NEVER BEFORE. They're absolutely the worse. I PANIC when I think my period is coming.
I'm wondering .. Why would this be??? I am eating closer to my energy levels, about 1800-2100/day. Still paleo. DEFINITELY not as stressed, I am a happy girl! Adrenal tests came back normal (morning is still lower than I want, but better and in normal range,) thyroid hasn't been checked yet but I feel better and my temperatures are 98.2-98.6+ every morning. I've gone from 116lbs to 126lbs over this journey, and it's mostly in my belly, but most certainly also in my breasts. Would like to lose the 5lbs of belly but it feels IMPOSSIBLE to diet. I can't sleep at night if I eat less than 1700/day. Absurd because I used to eat 1400/day and feel fine. UGH!
Anyway – WHY would menstrual cramps increase SO horribly if everything else seems to be "online"? Maybe my body is just being revengeful and making me suffer for starving her for so many years. Can't we just be friiiiieeendsss?
This comment was WAY longer than I thought but, you know. Girls are too good at going off on tangents. Thanks again for ALL you do!
I'm 19 years old and started working out and eating healthily about a year ago. I've always been regular but 5 months ago my periods stopped. I lost about 20 pounds over the year and now i'm at a healthy weight for my height ( 105 pounds and I'm 5'1), my BMI is 20 and my body fat is 20% so I don't know why my periods have stopped. I've stopped counting calories a month ago and stopped exercising but my periods haven't come back. I've done blood tests which came out normal. I'm really stressing out about this as I need my periods back soon. Do you have any advice about why it's missing? Thanks!
Thank you for this post. I was diagnosed with HA in September and am struggling to get things back on track. I haven't lost any weight recently, I eat clean, eat when I'm hungry and allow myself rest days and "cheat" days where I eat whatever I want. I'm not sure of my body fat percentage, but I'm about 102 pounds, my BMI is about 18, and I have a good amount of muscle. I am very athletic and eat a largely vegetarian diet, but will eat seafood or poultry about once or twice a week. I also take protein, fat and vitamin supplements.
Do you think maybe I'm not getting enough protein as a vegetarian? I've also struggled with failed relationships and jobs during this time…so maybe it's partially psychological?
My doctor says I need to gain weight, but from what I'm reading here that doesn't work for everyone. I don't really want to stop being an athlete…does anyone have any suggestions about what worked for them? Progesterone didn't work for me, since I'm not producing estrogen. I know I am mentally stressed, but don't know what to do about it.
This article is awesome! I have struggled with HA for awhile, starting in high school from some family/school stress, and disordered eating/excessive exercise. I then started birth control to 'regulate' my period only to make things much much worse. After being on bc for 10 years, about 3 years ago I decided to stop bc and heal my body with the help of a holistic dietitian. It's been a long, tough and expensive process but I have finally had my own period for 6 months straight!

It's certainly possible that I'm way more interested in seeing my sports media friends perform karaoke than you are, but this is my blog, and my daughter's preschool is closed so I need easy posts, and so this is dang sure going up. It's from Mike Wise's Charityoke event Wednesday night, the sort of event where my writing becomes a heck of a lot less legible as the night progresses.
There were something like 17 performers. I have extensive notes and photographic evidence, plus video of LaVar Arrington singing "Sweet Caroline," but that'll have to wait 'til later. For now, here's video of the three Comcast SportsNet stars: Kelli Johnson doing "Shoop," Russ Thaler rocking Iron Maiden's "Run to the Hills," and Michael Jenkins bringing the house down with "Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang." Below, please find Fox 5's Dave Feldman, Sue Palka and Lindsay Murphy rapping to Kurtis Blow's "Basketball."
Jenkins, I should note, is a total master of the genre, right down to distinctive voices and styles for Dre and Snoop and what I'm assuming was some Hennessy in his left hand as a prop. It might not convey from bleeped Web video, but trust me, he slayed, and was awarded first place.
He was followed by Chris Wilson and Kedric Golston on a Wilson original, and Lindsay Czarniak, Jim Vance and NBC friends doing Hank Williams's "Family Tradition," complete with cowboy/cowgirl costumes. Stay tuned for possibly 10,000 more words about this, if I can get it together.

Coral Gables, Fla. — C.J. Fair is well-acquainted with the reputation of zone teams. On Saturday, the senior took advantage of it.
Facing an opponent that also plays a 2-3 zone, Syracuse took advantage of the oft-discussed difficulty it creates for defensive rebounders.
The Orange outrebounded Miami by 15 during a 64-52 win over the Hurricanes, a total
that included 14 offensive rebounds by the Orange and a 10-point edge in second-chance points.
"We knew coming into the game we'd have opportunities on the boards," Fair said. "We'd seen the film against Duke and how they were able to win the rebound battle. We wanted to do the same thing. It's the way their zone plays."
The Orange is seventh in the country in offensive rebounding percentage, grabbing 39.8 percent of their misses, a number that went up against Miami after Syracuse grabbed 14 of 33 (42 percent).
Chief among the beneficiaries was Baye Moussa Keita, who grabbed four of his six rebounds on the offensive end and converted them into a pair of putbacks, the only points scored by Syracuse reserves against Miami.
"I thought Baye really got active on the boards," Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said. "Baye had four offensive rebounds in 19 (minutes). I thought Baye gave us a big lift. Big."
Fair and Jerami Grant also had three offensive rebounds. Fair scored a pair of baskets off his, while Grant had another highlight-reel follow-up dunk and also earned a trip to the foul line.
Syracuse's biggest improvement came on the defensive end, where Syracuse's rebounding percentage was just No. 202 in the country. The Orange grabbed 83 percent of Miami's misses, much better than its usual 70 percent.
The performance was particularly critical given Syracuse's reputation for rebounding and the fact that the Orange was pummeled on the glass against Pittsburgh a week ago, losing the rebounding battle 35-24 and nearly losing for the first time this season.
While rebounding has often been a major concern for the Orange during Boeheim's career, Saturday's performance made sure that the rebounding problem against Pittsburgh is remembered as a blip instead of a blemish.
"We've rebounded well all year," Boeheim said. "We talked about rebounding. We knew we could out-rebound them. I thought we did a really good job on the boards. When you play a zone you're going to be out of position. You're vulnerable to people getting rebounds against you, that's one of the weaknesses of the zone."

Smart system combines natural light with LED
Solatube International's Smart LED system harnesses sunlight during the day and transitions to energy-efficient LED lighting at night.

Pru gets shabby treatment from the FSA
The UK Financial Services Authority has become more driven by fear than common sense. By demanding that Prudential put up more capital as a condition of buying AIG's Asian assets, it has certainly shot the deal in the leg if not the head. Pru already faced a struggle getting the deal through its shareholders. This makes an already daunting task harder still.
There was widespread complaint when the UK authorities stood impotently by and allowed Kraft of the US to acquire Cadbury, but stopping a UK company from doing the reverse – ensuring its future by buying into fast growing Asian markets – strikes me as much worse.
Now of course everyone knows why the FSA is being so cautious. As a regulator, it has been burned mightily by the financial crisis. Allowing Royal Bank of Scotland catastophically to acquire a large part of ABN Amro just as the ship sunk beneath the waves was a particularly salutary lesson.
But this is hardly the same thing. What the FSA is doing by throwing a spanner in the works is essentially saying how can we be expected to regulate a company which has so much of its business overseas. It's hard enough to get the blighters to behave even when they are right under our nose, but when off travelling in markets far beyond our control, then we've no chance. So it's no deal or go re-domicile somewhere else and be another regulator's responsibility. This is basically just giving up. The UK economy has little hope with that kind of an attitude.
There are a lot of legitimate concerns about this deal. Nobody doubts the underlying industrial logic, but it looks expensive and the execution risks are considerable. But Pru cannot succeed overseas if it is forced to double up on capital at home. Shareholders should be allowed to judge the deal on its merits. It looks as if the regulator might deny them that choice.

September 3 2014 Latest news:
We're updating the forecasts - back soon
by Rory Brigstock-Barron
Thursday, May 1, 2014
A mother has spoken out after her seven-year-old daughter was assaulted outside an Islington shop, leaving her traumatised.
Indiyana Wallace has been unable to sleep without the light on since she was hit in the face several times by Chantel McCarthy near her home in Hornsey Road, Archway.
The little girl had got out of her mother's car to go into Costcutters when she was attacked on the pavement by McCarthy, who was drunk and had a suspended sentence for common assault hanging over her from the previous November.
McCarthy, 35, of Ashley Road, Crouch Hill, was arrested after the assault in January but was bailed unconditionally awaiting trial – which led to further torment for Indiyana who had a panic attack when she saw her through her mum's car window.
McCarthy pleaded guilty to assault by beating at Highbury Magistrates' Court last week.
Indiyana's mother, Marlana Philips, said: "She was given unconditional bail so Indiyana could bump into her any time. I was disgusted with the way it was handled. If she had a suspended sentence for assault she shouldn't have been let back out.
"Indiyana hasn't been able to sleep without the light on since."
McCarthy was on bail until April 3, when she was arrested for another assault, this time on a member of staff at her supported housing unit following a row over 60p.
Ms Philips said she was pleased that McCarthy pleaded guilty at the beginning of the trial, preventing her daughter from having to give evidence.
Chandrankant Solanki, defending McCarthy, told the court: "The defendant has a long-term drinking problem which has contributed to serious mental health issues.
"She is currently living in supported accommodation in Ashley Road – she doesn't have an understanding of her actions."
McCarthy was remanded in custody until sentencing on May 16, while a psychiatric report is prepared.
