Normally, the bladder wall is thin and elastic and maintains a low pressure until it has stored 8 to 10 ounces of urine.

Yes it is natural; in fact most of the girls experience frequent urination before the beginning of their period. The reason for this is the bloating that's associated with your periods to create more pressure on your bladder. It may also be due to other reasons. If your uterus is expanding then it is causing pressure on your bladder right before your cycle starts. As you get older it can get worse, so doing kegel exercises could help to keep you from embarrassing leakage later on.
