Tater asked

Today I got hungry then got my food and then I lost my appetite

Soso answered

Okay so losing your appetite after you just got hungry can totally happen, and sometimes it's because of hormones or how you're feeling. Our bodies are doing a lot of stuff, especially when we're growing and going through puberty, and that can mess with how we feel about food. Hormones are literally zooming all over the place and they can make you feel super hungry one minute and then totally over it the next, or even a little nauseous.

Like, before your period, your hormones are shifting a lot, and this can change your appetite. Some days you might feel like you could eat everything in the fridge, and other days food just doesn't sound good. Stress or just feeling overwhelmed can also make your appetite disappear, even if your body actually needs fuel. It's like your brain is too busy to even think about eating.

The best thing to do is just try to eat when you can and choose things that sound good, even if it's just a little bit. Make sure you're drinking water too. If you keep losing your appetite a lot and it makes you feel weak or really tired, it's a good idea to chat with a grown-up about it just to make sure everything's okay.

But is there any tea that helps it come down?

Soso answered

Look, there isn't really a magic tea that makes your period come down instantly, okay? Like, what happens inside your body, with hormones and everything, is super complex. Teas don't have the power to control that suddenly.
