I find the exact opposite for myself, kate. Ever since I can
remember, my appetite decreases and I eat less prior to and
during the first day or so of my menstrual period. After that, my
appetite returns to normal. My period tends to last a max of 3
days, but the first day or so I feel very full and have lots of gastro
distress. The fullness and distress used to last all 3 days pre-
811rv. I can usually tell when my period is about to arrive
because I feel so full and my intestinal motility speeds up like
crazy.

I don't know that there is a set response for all menstruating
women. I'm curious to hear other experiences/opinions.
