Can lymph nodes swell during menstrual cycle or should i be concerned? i also have slight stiffness on the left side of my neck where i feel the node

Absolutely!: Lymph nodes can swell in your neck during your period, but lymph nodes *will not* swell in your neck *because* of your period. The swelling is unrelated. The lymph nodes are swelling for some other reason, most likely a virus. See your doctor if it persists or is very painful.
