So basically the topic says it all. I just realized my cycle will be starting in the next 1-2 days. Is water fasting ok during this time? If so, is there anything special I should know or be aware of? I’m trying to up my water intake.

I personally haven’t had any issues water fasting on my cycle. fasting (water/intermittent) in generally has changed it for me.I use to have really painful,heavy and long periods (7-8 days) but ever since i started fasting i don’t experience any cramps and they are a lot lighter and shorter (4-5 days).

Nope, its usually lighter for me and shorter. I think my last cycle was only 3 days during my water fast. My usual time is 5days

Yes no problem at all! I always end up fasting during my cycle by accident! 
So true. Even I experience less pain and don’t need any medication. I usually used to take one anti spasmodic to help me get thru work while menstraution. But to my surprise after starting fasting, I never need medication and the cycles were very regular… exact @ 28 days! Fasting normalises our body amazingly!
