A member asked:
Do doctors know of certain foods you should eat when you have your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: You should consume your usual diet if healthy and perhaps consider extra iron because that is the only nutrient lost during menstruation. You don't need anything special at the time of your period.
