Study I found! Fiber might be holding your period back

Study I found! Fiber might be holding your period back

I found a study that shows that women who ate over 22 grams of fiber per day had significantly lower estradiol levels since fiber binds to estradiol in the colon. The relationship between fiber and estradiol we’re inversive so the more fiber you ate, the lower estradiol (and lower LH as well) and the higher the probability of an annovulatory cycle. :(

I myself have eaten lots and lots of fiber and still not gotten my period back, so I will definitely change that now. Here is the study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2744625/
