Bloating at 'that' time of the month?!

Question: Bloating at 'that' time of the month.?

Does anyone know of any natural herbal remedies to use to help with this..

I get really, really bloated and I hate it! I have quite a flat stomach and athletic figure usually but then I have this nasty evil little pot belly for about 10 days before my period making me look like a fat porker! It honsety looks like one of those nasty beer guts you see on older men..

Thanks

Well, there are actually several natural products that would help as natural products for hormone support, which would help to balance out the hormones and everything that comes from that (including minimizing the bloating)..
Some of the most popular ones would be Dong Quai, Black Cohosh, Vitex (also called Chasteberry), Wild Yam, Damiana Leaf, Motherwort, GLA (Gamma Linolenic Acid, commonly in Borage Oil and Evening Primrose Oil), and some Soy germ products..

Start using a natural progesterone creme.. You can find it at the organic/vitamin stores.. I have never seen it at GNC or commercial places like that.. I usually use it twice a day, alternating areas, two weeks prior to my "time of the month" and during that week.. It helps with the bloating and water gain and it seems to make them last less.. I use a brand called FemCreme from Purelabs.. On their website it only shows you the pill form (which didn't work as well as the transdermal creme did).. Here is a website that lists many different companies and brands with websites and contact info.. Most people use it for premenapausle or menapause but it works GREAT for our periods.. There is tons of info on the web but Dr.. Lee recommended products are one of the names my doctor recommended me.. And it really helps with mood balance as well..
