Can I exercise on an empty stomach if I have amenorrhea?

It is not recommended to exercise on an empty stomach in the case of amenorrhea, because exercising on an empty stomach may aggravate physical fatigue, cause hypoglycemia or other uncomfortable symptoms. In particular, amenorrhea may be related to abnormal nutritional status and hormone levels in the body, so exercise arrangements should be treated with caution.

Amenorrhea may be caused by a variety of reasons, including hormone imbalance, malnutrition, excessive exercise or low body fat, which are usually related to insufficient energy reserves in the body. Exercise on an empty stomach will further consume the body's stored energy, which may cause fatigue and even aggravate endocrine disorders, affecting the recovery of amenorrhea. If amenorrhea is related to pathological causes, such as premature ovarian failure or pituitary dysfunction, fasting exercise may also aggravate the symptoms. The risk of hypoglycemia in the fasting state is higher, which can easily lead to dizziness, nausea or physical exhaustion, especially when there is amenorrhea, the body itself is in a weak state and is more likely to have these problems. Although fasting exercise helps burn fat, it is not suitable for people with amenorrhea, because the key to improving amenorrhea is to adjust the endocrine system and maintain energy balance, rather than over-emphasizing exercise intensity or effect.

It is recommended that women with amenorrhea choose moderate and scientific exercise methods, such as yoga, walking or low-intensity aerobic exercise 1-2 hours after meals, which can help relieve physical stress and promote hormone balance. At the same time, pay attention to dietary adjustment, supplement high-quality protein, healthy fats and nutritious foods rich in iron, zinc, etc., and maintain a regular diet. If necessary, under the guidance of a doctor, medication such as estrogen and progesterone replacement therapy or Chinese medicine for regulating menstruation can help improve endocrine disorders. If amenorrhea lasts for more than three months, or is accompanied by other uncomfortable symptoms such as significant weight loss, fatigue, etc., you need to seek medical attention in time to find out the cause and receive professional treatment.
