ciao77 answered Tuesday September 9 2008, 2:11 am: It is normal to get more emotional during/around the time of your period. How much really depends on the person. I had a friend who got very moody, whereas I usually get slightly more emotional and sensitive. It probably also depends on your age. If it is becoming a problem and seems like you are beyond moody and emotional, you can always talk to a doctor or other professional.
Also, just because your friends call you bipolar doesn't mean you are. It is a serious mental condition, so being moody does not imply that someone is bipolar or even has bipolar tendencies. If, however, you (and/or anyone else) notice that your mood swings are a serious problem even when you are not on your period, consider consulting a parent or doctor about it. But all in all, being emotional during your period is normal, especially if you are a teen or are still getting used to the cycle. [ ciao77's advice column | Ask ciao77 A Question ]
