Answer 1

Yes! I read a few articles that say the average woman can be up 2-6, yes six pounds during their cycle. The best thing to do, is stay consistent with tracking your weight. That helps me understand my biology and then I don’t sweat when I’m up at that time. If you have an iPhone the health app can help track your cycle too.  

Answer 2

It's both. Perfectly normal.  

Answer 3

Yes—- I hate that

Answer 4

Even after menopause, I realized I was on a *6*-week cycle. I could eat the exact same things week 5 AN@pervious week 6, and engage in almost identical activity. I gained weight week 6. The next week it would slacken back off.  

Answer 5

Yes i am always 3lbs heavier when on my cycle!  

Answer 6

Yes, just happened to me last week. . It sure does mess with your head!

Water retention more than likely. Try to stay away from sodium but keep drinking your water. It’ll come out with a vengeance. Whoosh effect.

Yep every time!
