How to prevent looking yellow when I'm on my period?

[Anonymous]

Obviously due to the loss of blood it makes me look real tired and sometimes yellow I've had people tell me. How to prevent this?

"Looking yellow" is called jaundice and it is a symptom of a liver issue. You need to see your doctor about this... Maybe your gynecologist, but your general practitioning physician may be better. Either way, see a physician, preferably when you are jaundiced.

I've had to take iron on my periods before because they were so bad and I'd just be in bed the whole week and exhausted and bleeding so much. Maybe ask your dr about trying it, made me feel a lot better

I don't think you can prevent it. Do you have any mineral or vitamin deficiencies? I know my iron deficiency gets worse when I'm on my period.
