Is it normal to have food aversions around the time of your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It makes sense.: As you period approaches, the estrogen and Progesterone levels are near their peak, then fall rapidly. This change can affect you in many ways, including taste and smell, which are important in enjoyment of food.
