Key finding
Nutritional ketosis was linked to self-reported menses changes independent of weight loss, with no added effect of ketone salts.
What the study did
Randomized trial in 19 women with overweight or obesity comparing ketogenic diets with racemic BHB salts or placebo against a low-fat diet. About a third of keto participants reported increased menses frequency and intensity after 14 days, and one third regained menses by day 28. No changes were reported on the low-fat diet.
This study used [form], not goBHB. It is shown here as general ketone science. Only goBHB studies back goBHB product claims.
