Lactose Intolerance only with periods!?

Question

Gosh, it’s soo weird. I am not lactose intolerant. I drink two gallons of milk every week, divulge in ice cream and cheese and my body is always A-ok! But... whenever it’s that time of month, I’m a gas station. WTF! It’s like menstrual lactose intolerant lol.. but real question.. does this happen to anyone one else?! 😂🐄 💨

Answer

Well a person can get very gassy during your period due to your cervix flexing and messing up your stomach has is also caused by bloating. So most likely it’s that and not a dairy intolerant.

Answer

Honestly you might be intaking too much dairy for your body. Two gallons of milk is a lot of dairy. Your body is trying to cleanse itself during that time of the month and it may be trying to reject or get rid of the dairy.

Answer

Lol whoa! 
I have a bunch of food intolerances actually, gluten, lighly dairy intolerant (can eat cheese or baked goods and chocolate with a minor amount of dairy and some butter- but not milk, whipped cream, yogurt or ice cream), 
Heartburn with most fruits, coffee, chocolate, pretty much everything with a flavor, etc. 
But right before or on my period, I CAN EAT STUFF I CAN'T NORMALLY EAT with fewer or no consequences. 
Like. What?
Still can't get away with gluten, but I have more mild symptoms than normal. 
Is it because im already feeling sick or my body is just so in need of calories it processes things better? Like, im so confused!
Wow that is a lot of dairy, gal, I'd say it's a good idea to reduce your intake. Just because it's so much & thats probably hard on your body, honestly.
Dairy free alternatives are getting better and more available every year!
But srsly, not for cheese. Lol. There is no legit alternative for fine cheeses. 
But for crap cheeses like Velveeta, there's daiya. 😂 
Anyway, maybe your body does have a hard time processing all that dairy, as most people would, and the extra bloating is made even worse around your cycle!
Try "so delicious" ice creams and probably silk almond or coconut (coconut is good sugar free if you want sugar free or to cook with, imo) 
Around your period to see if that reduces this bloating!
I can have extra gas around my period sometimes, im totally unaware of the cause. It's normal for some people!
