Food cravings

[Morph22010]

Not sure if this is the menopause, im 50 but my periods show no signs of stopping! Past few months ive most intense cravings and it’s getting worse to the point where it’s hurting my mouth and waking me up. Of all things I’m craving Dairylea dunkers and lime, not mixed seperate cravings

I’ve found that I needed to up my protein to fill me up more. That and give in to the cravings!

Could you be iron deficient? Weird cravings can be a sign of that. My ferritin was on the floor when I was at the start of peri meno due to flooding.
