In this episode of Eat More Carbs, Jenna and Lilly break down a real life hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) recovery case study of a Division 1 collegiate female distance runner who got her period back while training and competing in college. They discuss the biggest challenges she faced as a college runner, including high training volume, chronic underfueling, fear of weight gain, performance pressure, and the mental barriers that often keep female athletes stuck without a period. Jenna and Lilly walk through what actually supported her period recovery, how consistent fueling and mindset shifts played a role in restoring her cycle, and where she is now in her HA recovery journey as a competitive runner.
