Can you eat more during your period?

[sunnyd 32]

Do any of you ladies feel you can eat more during your period? I got these crazy cravings this past month and felt I ate more than I usually can. This is not a good thing! Wondering if any one else has experienced this?

I definitely feel like I can. I was actually going to ask this question a few days ago. Thank you for asking it!

I'm experiencing the opposite cuz I have not eaten much at all prior or during it. And having it couple weeks after surgery is painful. I also slept a lot and had a lot of naseau.

Yes! I had this problem this month - I was hungry all of the time during TOM which is somewhat unusual. Glad the hunger has subsided a little but hope it won't happen every month!

See, I am the opposite too. I get nauseous, and I have some "back end" issues. Sorry for the TMI! I normally stall because I can't eat, and I do not want to drink.

I can eat more the few days prior, then get nausea and then can't eat as much during. So I guess I'm a lucky one that gets to experience it all! :biggrin5:
