These signals tell you that your period is about to begin

Have you ever had it? Suddenly getting your period without noticing it days before? The whole event is of course not pleasant, let alone that you cannot prepare for it. Fortunately, there are a number of signals that your body sends out that tell you that you are likely to get your period the next day.

Signals of menstruation

In most women, the menstrual cycle lasts 28 days (it is usually between 21 and 35 days). If you take the pill you can calculate exactly when your period will come, but this is also possible if you track your natural cycle with a smartwatch, for example. There are also a lot of women who do not have/do not have this and therefore have a very irregular cycle. Because of this, there is a good chance that you will sometimes not even realize that your period is coming soon. Fortunately, in this case there are a number of symptoms that indicate that you can expect your period soon.

Cramps

Having cramps is one of the biggest signals that your period is about to start. These can be intense cramps (then you probably realize it), but they can also be small cramps that can almost feel like ‘normal’. Yet there is a good chance that something will happen underneath.

Mood swings

Are you suddenly angry at your partner or friends for exactly nothing? And a little later you don’t understand your outburst either? Mood swings are a real signal that your period is coming. The reason you may have mood swings is because major changes are taking place in your hormones. This then expresses itself outside, so you can have mood swings.

You may also suddenly become very sad and gloomy just before your period. You can cry about everything and you feel sad about everything. Fortunately, that feeling disappears during and just after your period.

Bloated feeling

Another signal that your body sends when you have your period very quickly is a bloated feeling in your abdomen. This mainly manifests itself in your lower abdomen. It is absolutely not a good feeling and you know that something is waiting for you…

Pimples

Do you hardly ever have a pimple on your face and suddenly some appear? There is a good chance that you will get your period today or tomorrow. These are hormonal pimples that you can do very little about. You mainly see them around your chin and mouth; another sign that they are hormonal pimples and your period is just around the corner!
