Is this normal? I get really bad bloating like I’m pregnant before my period starts and it’s also the arms and overall body. I never used to have this before but idk if this due to just eating more (I used to have an Ed before), aging, or other issues.

Omg literally came on here to ask the same thing. Happened to me starting a few days ago and got my period today. Apparently it’s super normal it’s kinda similar to how your body also retains more water when building muscles so you’ll have a short period of bloating in eg ur arms if you hit arms more intensely esp in the beginning when there’s little muscle to begin with

It’s more prominent in the summer too cuz of how ur body responds to hotter temperatures by retaining more water etc
