cold symptoms when on your period???

[Yvette84]

Hi, sorry to keep bringing up periods, (but i'm on mine so...) anyways....it's really weird! everytime I get my period I get cold symptoms! does this happen to anyone else??? I start getting sick, then I automatically take "Airborne" so I don't. But I think it's so weird

Hey Yvette,

 

Each person may get different symptoms when on their period, cramping, migraine headaches, sinus infections, it just depends on the person.

 

It could be due to hormonal changes at that time make you more stressed out and hence more susceptible to illness, including colds.

 

Try to take it easy during your period, I avoid going to the gym during those few days and eat really healthy.

 

Hugs. Rose

Hey me too! Then again I've been getting everything with my periods lately.

=P

 

Maybe it's because you're more fatigued and overall weaker so you get a runny nose, headaches, etc.
