Have Unending Carving For Ice. Blood Flow During Periods Reduced. Possible Problem?
I JUST HAVE THIS UN ENDING CRAVING FOR ICE AND I HAVE BEEN CHEWING ON IT FOR ABOUT 3-4 YEARS NOW. I JUST CANT TAKE MY EYES OFF IT WHEN I SEE IT.I HAVE READ THROUGH THE SYMPTOMS OF ANEMIA ,SUCH AS TIREDNESS,FEELING DIZZY BUT I DONT THINK I EXPERIENCE ANY OF THOSE.OVER THE YEARS, MY BLOOD FLOW DURING MY PERIOD HAS REDUCED. I USED TO MENSURATE FOR 3 FULL DAYS AND THE LAST DAY, IT WOULD JUST BE TRACES BUT NOW, I HAVE ONLY 1 FULL DAY OF MENSURAL FLOW AND THE OTHER TWO DAYS WOULD BE TRACES. WHAT DO YOU THINK THE PROBLEM COULD BE?

Hello ma'am and welcome.
The menstrual changes could be a normal process of aging, as you must be approaching menopause,but we cannot say for sure as you have not mentioned your age.
As for the ice craving, I dont see this to be a problem at all.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
