Reclaiming your cycle : your period recovery guide
Your missing period isn’t the problem — it’s the message.
If you’re a runner, triathlete, or endurance athlete who’s lost your cycle due to training, under-fueling, or stress, this guide will help you understand exactly what your body needs to recover — without giving up your sport.
Written by Lauren Charlton, MS, RDN — an Advanced Sports Dietitian and endurance runner, "Reclaiming Your Cycle" is an 85+ page, evidence-based resource that walks you through every phase of period recovery in female athletes affected by RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport).
Inside, you’ll find clear explanations, athlete-friendly nutrition frameworks, and practical mindset tools to help you restore your cycle, rebuild your strength, and perform better than ever — from someone who’s lived it and coached it.
💪 What’s Inside:
- The science behind RED-S and how it disrupts your hormones
- How to fuel for recovery without fear or restriction
- Period-specific training guidance for endurance athletes
- Hormone-supportive nutrition strategies (carbs, fats, micronutrients)
- Mindset and body image work to sustain long-term recovery
- Real-world tools: meal frameworks, checklists, recovery timelines
- How to stay resilient and prevent relapse once your period returns
🧠 Perfect for:
- Runners, cyclists, triathletes, or gym-goers who’ve lost their period
- Female athletes recovering from RED-S or amenorrhea
- Anyone looking to balance performance with hormonal health
- Coaches or practitioners supporting female athletes
✨ What Makes This Different
This isn’t a generic hormone handout. It’s a sports-specific, evidence-backed, female-centered recovery roadmap written by a dietitian who’s worked with athletes at every level; and is presently the athlete herself too — and understands the balance between performance goals and full recovery.
Get your cycle back. Rebuild your strength. Learn to perform with — not against — your body.
