Weight loss and periods?

Hi everyone.

I'm a yoyo serial dieter. Have been overweight since I was around 20, bow early 40s. I need to lose at least 3 stone.

My periods are a nightmare and despite surgery and a mirena they aren't improving.

I'm seriously considering a VLCD like wanted for a couple of months as I cannot continue like this.

Has anyone lost weight and noticed it helped their periods at all?

I'm 5ft8 and even when just below 8 stone my periods were normal and I even got pregnant, I've always been thin so they didn't actually get into a routine until I was 21, I think I started at about 14 and had them intermittently until 21 when they settled down to a regular cycle.

I think low carb appeals as this would ask help me cut down on all the crap snack foods and sugar.

Thanks ladies x
