Is It Normal To Gain Weight During Period?

I am wondering if it is normal to gain weight while on my period. I am bleeding pretty heavily and have put on 2 pounds over night. I feel puffy, constipated and bloated and am wondering if this is normal during the menstrual cycle and if it should go away.

Hi

Yes it is absolutely normal to gain about 0.5 - 2 kgs during your period. Please do not worry as you will lose the same amount of weight once you are done with your period.

Best wishes
