]]>Hormonal Changes
Experiencing water weight before your period is due to the hormone progesterone, which is essential during the early stages of pregnancy. When you’re not pregnant, your progesterone levels decrease and your body retains an extra microscopic drop of water. This water weight can range from a half a pound to 10 pounds, averaging around five for most women.
GI Struggles
Bloating causes and magnifies weight gain by making your stomach feel distended. Gastrointestinal problems and fluctuations in hormones can cause constipation or diarrhea in women.
Food Cravings
During our periods, our cravings for certain food like chocolate are a result in changes in hormones. Next time you have cravings before or after your period, go ahead and give in to them, but in moderation.

Put your hand up if youโve ever felt personally victimised by an item of clothing 
Poke your belly out if your wardrobe has ever induced an #endo flare for you 
Raise both hands if youโve got no idea what โtrueโ size you are, because your wardrobe houses 3 different dress sizes just to accommodate your changing swell 
Face palm if you relate to all of the above 
Anyone else concerned about having to wear โrealโ clothes again at some point?Food Cravings
