A member asked:
Can a low carbohydrate eating plan around 20-50 grams, cause long drawn out and frequent menstruation and increased pms symptoms
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No -- actually your low carb eating plan (if it still includes non-starchy vegetables) is likely to be more anti inflammatory in nature. This may even help relieve your symptoms.
