Does anyone find their asthma gets worse just before they get their period?

Days before I come on my asthma gets really bad and I have to use my inhaler loads. Anyone else with this problem?

I know exactly how you feel, I was in a very similar situation. I remember that I was so nervous at that time and I took it out on everyone around me. I didnt know what could I do until, thanks god, I found Smoke Deter. Now I can look back and laugh on myself and in the same time I remember how helpless I was. I hope that I'll never be in the same situation again

    cant say i do but it may just be because your hormones change or are imbalanced. i dont know if its because you lose blood that could be a factor as your bodys defence system may be at its lowest before you come on and also blood contains oxygen but i would of thought your body makes up for its loss straight away. dont use your inhaler too much it can make you ill.your doctors should know what dosage is safe daily. like i take becotide morning and night and terbutaline when i have an atack but i cant take more than two puffs a day. it may just be coincidence but if your worryed ask your gp maybe it will just ease your mind or at least youll know whether its fact or fiction!

    Theoretically people with asthma should experience more frequent attacks because of the hormone progesterone which is higher at this time(just before the period).

    I have asthma too. But I don’t experience this problem. Try to consult a specialist.

    Before, my asthma is really bad, but when I got into sports, everything changed. I don’t experience asthma anymore. I first tried swimming and now I am into badminton. Maybe you should try it too. But don’t push your self too hard, do only what your body can. :)
