Is it normal to fart a lot on your period?

Mostly.Normal for most people

Yes—being gassier on your period is common. Hormone shifts can change how your gut behaves, so extra farting and bloating may come along for the ride.

Your period can affect your digestion as well as your uterus. Hormone changes and the chemicals involved in cramps can alter bowel activity, which may leave you feeling bloated or passing gas more often than usual. Lots of people notice a change around their period, though everyone’s gut has its own schedule.
