Viv To The 911 Operator: I just ate dinner ten minutes ago, now, I'm hungry again!

Hello There , Lovely Ladies...

Unfortunately, another symptom has reared its ugly head! It is the dreaded, drum roll puhleeze: EXTREME hunger pangs! Having said that, have ANY of you ladies ate a complete meal, and within the next FIVE to TWENTY minutes, you're EXTREMELY hungry all OVAA again, as if you haven't had a bite to eat in days? Well after reading a few articles, I am experiencing low estrogen levels, which cause severe hunger pangs, and this contributes to hormonal imbalance! Ladies, have any of you been down this RAVENOUS road, as well? Have there been times, you could devour food, to no avail? Tell me your thoughts...

    Oh dear Viv, I am having this same problem this very night!!

    Literally, if my stomach is the slightest bit empty, it sends the most intense hunger pangs through my entire gut.

    I recognize this is a gastritis symptom for me, and it is the worst, as I know I will be trying to sort myself out for days, or maybe weeks.

    Bananas, toast, broth and eggs for me! Yay!

    Much love to you,

    Sara

    hello, i didn’t mean to say that im happy to hear someone having the same symptom. sorry about that , but i haven’t seen Anyone mentioning this symptom before .and that’s why i was surprised. i get the same and i wonder if it is insulin resistance.

    could be the low estrogen . hope we all get relief from all these unpleasant symptoms. Prayers
