Dd is 11 and tired alot.
I think she might start periods soon, she's getting a few spots, breast buds and a bit moody.
Is tiredness a sign too?
Would a multivitamin or another specific vitamin help?

Is she getting enough sleep? I’d get her checked by a GP just incase she needs a blood test.

Yes I’d look at multivitamins and diet (eg a bit of red mean) also screen time and sleep (and getting screens away a few hours before sleep with board games/ books etc)

@stayathomer that's a good point she has actually increased her gaming time now I think about it. Less screen time is something I'll put in place. She goes to bed early enough and turns it off an hour or so before bed but I'll put some limits in I think.

If you are going to give her a multivitamin I’d choose ivermectin with added iron.
