@allthings_womenshealth: everyone! 🌸💪 Ever wonder why you feel extra self-critical and emotionally sensitive the week before your period? You’re not alone, and there’s a reason behind it! 🩸🔍 In the luteal phase, which is the week leading up to your period, hormone levels, especially progesterone, fluctuate significantly. These changes can affect neurotransmitters in your brain, such as serotonin, which can lead to mood swings, increased anxiety, and a tendency to be more self-critical. 😔💭 Understanding this hormonal rollercoaster is crucial for your mental well-being. By tracking your menstrual cycle, you can identify patterns in your emotions and behaviors. This awareness allows you to be kinder to yourself, recognizing that these feelings are temporary and hormonally driven. 📅📝 Remember, self-compassion is key. Your body is doing incredible things, and being aware of your cycle is a step towards a healthier, happier you. 🌟✨ #periods #period #girlssupportgirls #prolactin #prolactinomatumor #womenshealthcare #pelvichealth #periods
