The Burnout × Cycle Workbook

Your period going quiet isn't a mystery — it's your body making an intelligent, protective decision. Chronic stress, undereating, overtraining, or burnout can suppress ovulation entirely. It's called functional hypothalamic amenorrhea, and it's more common than most doctors acknowledge.

This workbook helps you identify exactly what has been depleting you, understand the physiology behind your missing or disrupted cycle, and build a gentle recovery practice that fits your actual life — not an idealised version of it. Evidence-cited throughout. Designed for real women with real schedules.

Inside:

• The plain-language explanation of how burnout suppresses your cycle — and why your results can come back "normal" while something is clearly wrong

• A 12-question depletion audit across food, movement, rest, and emotional load to identify your specific drivers

• An energy availability worksheet based on the Loucks threshold research — so you can see whether your body has enough left over to ovulate

• A stress audit covering the invisible loads that no hormone panel will catch

• Four recovery pillars with honest reflection prompts: nourishment, gentle movement, rest, and nervous system care

• A 13-week weekly check-in tracker — five columns, five minutes, designed for busy women and working mothers

• A practitioner conversation guide with the exact tests to request and what to say if your doctor offers the pill as a solution
