Is it normal to get extreme fatigue while menstruating?

Serious, this can knock me out for like 20 hours solid, no exaggeration

I dunno,
Could be because I get super buzzed and don't want to sleep for like a week before I start my cycle? 🤔

If it wasn’t happening to you normally before in life then idk how normal that is.. if it’s always been like that then maybe???

Go to web MD and see how you’re dying diagnosis is sex cancer and find out..

@AuRevoir nah,
I always had this problem since a teen

Lol, is sex cancer even a thing? 😂

@Fishy I just imagine 11 year olds wrote the diagnosis for web md so sex cancer is totally a thing to them.. 👀🥤

Have you never asked your doctor about the normalcy of your period reactions? Or do you not go to doctors much??

@AuRevoir just never thought of asking her about the fatigue part 😂

@Fishy hmmm I mean it makes sense like some people when they lose blood they get super low on energy, and it is a period so it’s make sense if it is a seemingly normal reaction..

Hope you find out for sure soon tho..
