Overactive Bladder?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hey guys I was wondering you had (or ever experienced) and overactive bladder while you're on your period? I seem to have to go pee way more often than usual when I'm on my period. Anyone else experience this??

I feel like I get slot of pressure which makes me feel like I have to pee a lot even if I don't actually really need to.

YES. I feel the same way as KatlynTurner's post. It feels like there is just more pressure in my abdomen so I feel like I have to go to the bathroom all the time regardless of if I actually need to or not.

Glad I know I'm not the only one. But yea, I pee like a race horse too-- like every 45 mins to an hour, which is a lot for me.

I don't know about you but I retain about an extra 5 pounds of water weight while I am on period. Luckily it goes away after but I am peeing like a race horse.
