when your on your period.... - February 14th 2012, 08:13 PM

are you sensitive to some certain foods?
I can't eat anything hot or spicy because my mouth burns! I read something online that only women get something called 'burning tongue' because of certain hormones, i've had that before and oh my it burns!
when im on its a mild form of that...

anyone else get this?

hate for being a woman! haha

I've never had this problem. I LOVE spicy foods, any time of the month! I've also never heard of "burning tongue" either, so I can't really put any input on that. I tend to eat spicy foods MORE on or around the time of my period anyway, though I'd eat it all the time if I could.

It's probably some type of hormonal thing. I bet it's normal for period, I've never had it personally, like Shannon, I actually like spicy food on my period. I just like food in mass quantities, honestly. However, I don't think this sounds completely unreasonable. Maybe talk to your gynecologist next time you see them about this, just to ask for information. I really don't think it sounds like a problem though, more or less something to keep in mind on your time of month, avoid getting Thai food and what not.


something burning?

The only thing that happens to me when I'm on my period is that I want anything cheese related, haha. It doesn't matter what, as long as there's cheese in it, I want it But I know some people are effected differently.

As Traci said, it's probably some hormonal thing. It's never happened to me either.

Haha. Same I've also never had this happen to me, but like the others have said it's probably just something to do with hormones!

I eat the same kind of foods, but I don't eat as much of it. I lose my appetite when I'm on my period.

I change in a weird way. I normally don't like sweets, but during my period it's all I want lol.


Just a girl with an angel above, just a girl with an angel to love. My angel grew wings and she did dare to fly. But I promise my angel, it's only good night but never good-bye. My angel, my angel in heaven above. My angel, my darling, you'll always have my love. Rest in peace, my sweet darling, it's only temporary that we part. My angel, my angel, how you still do steal my heart </3

My mouth usually burns when I eat spicy stuff, especially now. My favorite thing to do is dip chips in pepperoncini juice and eat it and it KILLS my mouth but I still do it anyway lol.

I haven't really observed a change in flavors when I am on my period. I crave sugar more, but that's about it.

I've never had any flavor changes either, but I usually start to crave meat. I usually only crave sweets (more than usual) when I'm PMSing. As for it being a symptom of Menopause, according to this website, burning tongue could have to do with low estrogen levels, so it's possible you might have a small hormonal imbalance. I would visit your doctor and have a blood test done if you want it taken care of.
