Heavier, more difficult periods?

[PneumaticJawz78]

I know that very light, irregular, or missed periods can happen among those with stuff like anemia- but could a steady vegan diet also make you're body more prone to difficult period symptoms? The last period I had made me feel extremely ill, nauseous, hungry, crampy, and a little woozy (just a little). It felt like the most severe bout I've ever had, and I've been vegan for about a year now (yay me!).

Has anybody else experienced something strange like this or am I just cursed with 'women troubles'?

I had these symptoms as a veggie...but as a vegan they were a bit better...so I dont know.
