A member asked:

How can i stay skinny during my period? i know that you get bloated and stuff but is there a way to feel and look skinnier?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diet and exercise: The hormone changes before your period causes bloating. Some women take medicines like diuretics or birth control pills. A better approach is to watch diet, reduce salt intake, and plenty of exercises.
