I feel like I am being lazy
Soso answered
Okay so sometimes feeling lazy is just your body telling you it needs a break, especially around your period. There's a lot going on inside you then, and it takes a lot of energy.
Like, before your period, your hormones are shifting, and that can make you feel tired, a little down, or just not really motivated. During your period, your body is literally working to shed your uterine lining, and if you're bleeding a lot, you might even be losing iron which can make you super sleepy. It's not laziness, it's just your body doing its thing and asking for some extra rest.
It's a good idea to listen to your body when it's asking for rest. Try to get a little more sleep, maybe take a chill day, or do some gentle movement like walking instead of intense sports. And make sure you're eating enough, especially iron-rich foods like leafy greens, beans, or lean meat, to help keep your energy up. You can also track your energy levels in the Soso app to see if there's a pattern with your cycle, which is kind of cool because you get to learn about your own body's rhythms.
