So, for years, my periods were irregular and I’d occasionally have a missed period due to an ovarian cyst and it would cause me to feel like my period is coming only to have no blood. That’s only ever happened 3 times though, the missed period. What was much more common was cramping around 5 days before it started and then again on the day it started. This still happens, even though my periods are regular now. And my feet have been swollen for days, that’s generally another premenstrual sign for me. Not having nipple tenderness yet, but that’s another sign for me. And I’ve been hungrier and I know that I often get period related cravings, especially for chocolate, perhaps cause dark chocolate has helped ease my cramps in the past?
I have never had sex, so I’m not worried at all about pregnancy. But according to my tracker, I’m still 7 days out from when my period is due and as I stated before, these milder, generally more right sided cramps usually occur 5 days before it’s due and I’m having them right now. Is this a sign that my period is coming early this month?
