Why does my digestive system always seem to go haywire a few days before my period starts? some months it's gassy feeling, others it's diarrhea.

Hormonal effects: Hormonal changes associated with menstruation can affect digestive tract. In rare situations endometrial implants can occur in digestive tract causing symptoms that are timed with menstruation including pain and rectal bleeding.
