hi everyone,
looking to know if anyone has had similar problems and what has solved for you?
im 36 and have 3 children my oldest is 7 and youngest just turned 2, I’ve been pregnant or breastfeeding for last 7 years so thinking this probably has affected hormones
my periods always return at around 10 months postpartum
for around 7-10 days before my period I start to feel exhausted with body aches (like I’ve been poisoned!) constipated often then alternates with the opposite, sometimes abit nauseous, migraines/sensititive to bright lights/smells etc. I also get this a few days before ovulation but it’s not as bad
the day my period comes I feel totally fine just some light cramps and it’s not majorly heavy
some months worse than others, particularly this month I’ve almost vomited a few times and my stomach has been terrible :( it’s very debilitating. My mood is also not great but it’s more linked to feeling so ill
ive had ovarian cysts in the past. I went to my GP recently and had an ultrasound yesterday and they said there was nothing visible there
has anyone else had similar experience? What works for you if so x
