Menstrual Phase Hydration Iron
Menstrual phase hydration iron pairs steady fluids with iron-rich meals during bleeding—avoid dehydrating for bloating when headaches and fatigue already rise.
Menstrual phase hydration iron pairs steady fluids with iron-rich meals during bleeding days—water alone does not replace iron losses, and dehydrating to fight bloating worsens headaches. Sip through the day; add electrolytes if you train or cramp.
Schedule iron foods away from tea and large calcium doses. Warm fluids may ease cramps for some.
Rest days are valid when flow is heavy.
