A member asked:
Before my period i tend to put on quite a bit off weight i can sometimes put on about half a stone. is this natural?

Yes: The female hormones, estrogen and progesterone, fluctuate in a given month. There tends to be more weight gain and bloating and water retention in the latter half of the cycle due to predominance of Progesterone then. Likely by the 3-4 day of your cycle it's getting better? Definitely natural and some women have worse than others. Good luck and be well.
