Answers: My aunts and friends say that it is....but can someone tell me why?

well just u gain a bit of weight while on ur period due to water tension and if u are to eat lot of chocolate that will just bundle on top so u gain alot more weight
if u want to have chocolate then u can alongest it is in small portions

other then gaining weight from junk food NO chocolate is not bad on your period as a matter of fact it tends to calm a lot of womens hormones down in that time

yes, it turns your period chocolately brown.

I can't see why it's bad for you..I always crave it when I have my monthly.. So do most women.

I've never heard that! There's no reason why your period should have any effect on whether you can eat chocolate. In fact some people say it's a great thing to eat cos it makes you happy so will beat PMS plus cheer you up if you have stomach cramps. X

No, it's the opposite. Period might low down your blood sugar, chocolate raises your blood sugar ;)

i've heard it can make cramps worse. chocolate contains small amounts of caffeine. see if it makes you feel better or worse. then you'll know for yourself.

Another old wives tale!

Just don't eat too much or you will find you are gaining weight that's all.

No its not. Lol:p I always do and I never get cramps or anything adn I definetly do not gain weight. Mybe its because I was born naturally thin and always have. I have a high metabolism and I never diet and just eat junk food . lol:p So im not exactly sure. But its not bad , because it dosnt do anything to me.Good luck!
