Is it normal to get a lot of cravings before get your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes!: The hormone, progesterone, is highest at this point in the cycle and it causes a stimulation of the appetite, so, yes, this is completely normal. I try to ignore these hunger pangs so that i make sure not to gain weight.... It's only the hormones talking :) best of luck!
