Period while fasting?

Im on my day 3 of waterfasting, this is my first fast ever, and now at the third day i got brown/dark red leaning down there. The same kind when the period is ending. Is this normal or should i be worried ? It should be still 8 days till my next period.

Answer

Hormones are stored in body fat.

When you go into ketosis (which you will be since you aren’t ingesting carbs) your body starts to break down body fat for use.

This also releases some hormones. Which can trigger spotting / menses. It’s not harmful!
