Actually i heard that sometimes people can gain weight during their period. Whether or not its true i have no idea lol. I dont know how someone one would gain weight i probably would if i got PMS and became very emotional and eat chocolate lol. But most of the time im gettin stomach cramps and lose my appetite. I guess it depends on the person. If you did gain weight, it probably wouldnt be alot.

During your period, your body doesn't gain weight, most people feel a little bloated but that isn't noticeable to anyone else but yourself.

It all depends on you & your genes. Everyone's different so it affects them in different ways. Some may feel bloated while others never have this symptom. Or others may have painful periods and others don't.

Weight gain or bloatedness around the stomach, ankles or wherever is caused by extra fluid in your body called water retention. To reduce the effects of this, it could be an idea to cut back on salty foods the week before your period.

Having a period doesn't cause actual weight gain or loss, at least not significantly. Also, it depends on the person's body, as different people's genetic makeup can have different effects on how they lose or gain weight, even during a period. Most people just feel bloated or gain an extra pound or so from water retention, which can easily be solved with diurex or even midol, as some midol formulas contain diuretics.
