Have any women followed a hormone-reset meal plan while intermittent fasting?

The title is pretty self explanatory, I’ve been on birth control and it’s put my hormones out of whack. I’ve seen women eating to their menstrual cycle and i want to try it, but i have to eat around 4 meals a day and i follow OMAD fasting. If anyone has done this, can you provide tips on how you got all of your nutrients in?

Answer

I did OMAD for about 14 months and it started causing some issues for me. I’ve had to open my window a bit in order to get my hormones to regulate. I was having breakthrough bleeding/spotting. I think it was due to the fasting combined with accidently eating low fat. I make sure to eat at least 40 grams of fat per day now and it’s helped. I use chronometer to track everything I eat. Lots of veggies and whole foods and I rotate my proteins. Chicken, fish, beef, pork…nothing is off limits. For fats I do butter, olive oil, avocado, rendered animal fat and cheese.
