A member asked:

Why am i getting really nauseous while on my period this month? is that normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It can be: The same chemical that is released from the endometrium and causes menstrual cramps, prostaglandins, can cause nausea, diarrhea, and even fever. Some women experience all of these every month. However, if this is abnormal for you, it could also be due to a stomach bug. Hope this helps.
