Menstrual Cycle Fueling
Menstrual cycle fueling tunes calories, carbs, and iron across cycle phases to match energy and recovery needs. Symptom tracking beats one-size meal plans.
Menstrual cycle fueling adjusts calories, carbohydrates, and iron-rich foods across follicular, ovulatory, luteal, and menstrual phases to match energy and cravings without rigid rules. Luteal phases often need more stable carbs and magnesium; menses may need iron and hydration focus.
Track symptoms, not myths.
Common questions
-
Do you need more calories in the luteal phase?
