Nauseous during period….

[Hi193]

Does anyone else feel nauseous on their period? This is normal, right?

My period started today, 4 days late, and I’ve felt pretty awful since yesterday morning.

Some months I’ll feel a bit nauseous before my period but then it goes, however today I’ve just felt pretty sick all day. I’ve completely lost my appetite and I don’t feel hungry. I’ve never really had these symptoms before, but I am assuming it’s my period as I don’t know what else it could be. It’s horrible 😢

Bump

Anyone? Still feel really quite sick 😞

I quite often feel really nauseous just before or at the start of my period and always lose my appetite. I think it's to do with the hormones, and it usually passes pretty quickly.

Yip I get this too, day before and first couple of days I feel nauseous. It’s a horrible feeling which adds to the cramps, back pain etc. it’s a pretty miserable week for me.

Not every month, but yes, I sometimes feel sick, low appetite and often not exactly diarrhoea but looser and more urgent poos than normal. I think it’s to do with the massive hormone swing as your period starts.

Have you listened to the 28-ish days later podcast? It charts the cycle day by day and explains what’s going on with your body.

I do, but I've had those symptoms since I started my periods age 12 - if it's not normal for you I'd assume it's something else.

I don’t have periods anymore but yes I always felt nauseous. Could barely eat for the first few days. Was awful

Thanks all. I was very physically sick about an hour ago and this never happens to me so I think I may just have a bug or something 😞
