A member asked:
I usually get gasy a week or two before my period. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: About 10-14 days before your period, your body starts making more progesterone. This is a hormone from the ovary. One of the effects of Progesterone is to slow your bowels down a little. So many women feel bloated or gassy.
