What Dreams Mean And What They Say About You

Your period might be approaching

Some women report having wild dreams right before their period. And hormones do play a role in dreams. OB/GYN physician Dr. Christiane Northrup says that the day before your period, women are in a hormonal flux—causing erratic sleep and dreams. The theory is that the week before your period starts there is less REM sleep. Dreams, however, mainly occur when you are in REM.
