Is it normal to put on weight during your period?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes. It’s common for your weight to go up temporarily around your period, often because of water retention, bloating, or changes in appetite.
Your hormones can make you retain extra fluid in the days before and during your period, and bloating or constipation can add to the feeling. Some people also eat a little differently around that time, which can affect the scale too.
For most people, the change is temporary and settles after their period. If the weight gain sticks around well beyond your cycle or comes with symptoms that worry you, it’s worth checking in with a healthcare professional.
