Last July, when my period came and serious fatigue set in, I believed I was iron deficient per a coach and my sister, a nurse. After taking it easy on the bike for about a month, I started to feel reasonably better. Six months later, after getting serious about training again in January ... and losing weight again ... my period came again (it has a way of doing that) and the fatigue came again.
Turns out it's not iron deficiency. I apparently have mild hypothyroidism and moderate adrenal fatigue.
What I want to know is if anyone here has experienced this and with proper care of your body, were you able to get back to cycling with any intensity or endurance, without crashing your adrenals again?
