Lots of causes: Even though pre-menstrual and menstrual changes are the cause of bloating for many women, there are other causes. One of the biggest is intestinal motility issues where stool is not moving smoothly down your colon and is sluggish or slightly obstructive which causes bloating. Push fluids, exercise, increase fiber in diet. If persists, contact your PCP. Good wishes!
