Is it normal to eat more during the luteal phase?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes. It’s common to feel hungrier or have stronger cravings during the luteal phase, the stretch between ovulation and your period.

Your appetite can shift across your cycle, and many people notice they want more food or different foods in the days before their period. Hormone changes may play a role, and there’s nothing wrong with responding to hunger by eating more.

It varies from person to person and from cycle to cycle, so there’s no one “normal” amount. Regular meals and satisfying snacks can help; you don’t need to punish yourself or compensate for eating more.
