A member asked:

Could your period slow down when dehydrated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Period down pulse up: When significantly dehydrated the circulating blood volume drops with the blood pressure as well as the period flow and your pulse speeds up to compensate for the lack of volume. Once re-hydrated those changes go away.
