Hi, what time of the month is it for you? folicular?
Because since I only apply topicals and control the amount of oestrogen in my body I noticed that after my periods it's harder to get growing pains. I know that by rising the amount of oestrogen I can get them back but I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do.
During what time of the month do you usually have less growing pains?

I think I am on day 4 or 5 of my cycle right now. I got a little messed up because I think I might have accidentally took 2 birth control pills last night because I forgot to put the weekday label on them. since I am on birth control my cycle should be pretty steady all the way through, but the last 2 months I have noticed more pain/swelling in the last half. I dont do PM during my period, just dandelion. Then I start on day 7 or 8 with pm and slowly ramp up over the next week so I am at full dose by around day 13 or 14 and by that time I was getting sore/swollen. I actually do now feel a little swollen still today. not too sore though.
