period water weight

[Kung Fu Kitty]

since my isp search doesnt seem to be working,can you all tell me aprox how much water weight you gain during your period?

[simplynikki]

it really depends on the person hun. if you drink lots of water already your body shouldnt retain that much water befre or during your period. they say a woman fluctuates between 3-as much as 10 pounds before or during their period. but again it depends also on how many salty foods and sodas you normally drink. they do sell diuretics in your local pharmacy to help with the water weight.

I easily fluctuate 5-10 pounds during my period. I find if I drink a ton of water during my period it helps because it flushes everything out.

i have learned NOT to weigh myself at all the week before or the week during my period...otherwise i will go insane...it will go up and down between 2-3 pounds for the whole time
