Most women have many signs that show that the time is near! Your period is about to start. You must get prepared. If it is your first time you may likely panic, don't worry it is normal. However, if you have bled before, then you may have a hang of things.

Watch Out For These Signs

Restlessness - You may be tired or even exhausted and may want to catch some rest or nap. However, you will not be able to. Sigh! According to experts; a change in levels, rather than a decrease or increase in estrogen or progesterone, has the greatest potential for disrupting sleep

Headache - As you get closer to the day of your bleeding, you will likely feel pain in your head. Similar to restlessness, it is likely a result of the changes in the levels of a bunch of hormones in your body. Don't get worried. it is normal. Taking a mild painkiller can help.

Sore and Heavy Breasts - Your breasts may feel heavier than normal and when you pass your fingers around them, especially around your nipples, it feels very sore. This is mostly also because of the change in levels of your hormones. The hormone progesterone can cause some breast glands to get swollen and as such, become sore.

Mood Swings - Before you menstruate, your body releases an egg. Due to this, some hormones' levels drop and others such as serotonin are increased. You might experience a feeling of sadness and irritability at the smallest of things. Get it now?

Acne - These are the spots or breakouts that show on your face before you menstruate. The same hormones responsible for your period drop also trigger your skin to secrete ‘sebum’ - an oily substance to lubricate the skin. Too much of this is what causes the breakouts or acne.
