Weight fluctuation after your period

I have just finished my period today and weighed myself and i still have 1 pound more than my usual weight. How long after your period ends does it take for your weight to return to normal ?? Thanks in advance.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason to fluid retention most of the time. I have kept it on for days and the next I urinate like crazy and I'm down two pounds. ??? Go figure. Just try to get enough water and lay off the salt.

I'm sorry I can't really answer that because your weight can fluctuate throughout the day.  It depends on when you last ate, whether or not you might be retaining fluid, whether or not you  might have undigested food in your stomach.  There are a lot of variables that determine what your weight will be at any given time.
