Yes I got better!!!
I'm not perfect as I still have volatility as have hot flushes and my last frequent periods ended last September, then I had another 2 in April and May this year. I actually keep a 28 day cycle in my calendar as I still feel the high and lows which pretty much match up with the cycle that is hard to 'see' without a period!
Day 8 and 9 were always my worst as oestrogen starts rising, or trying to and struggling, which made me feel anxious, overwhelmed and dizzy. The way to tell if it's high oestrogen when you have a cycle is that the middle part is the worst, when in the past that would have been the nicer part as normal high levels of oestrogen make you feel great. Spiking levels are like being intoxicated though and they would leave me with a 10 day migraine (silent, nausea, dizzy, twitchy type). Also I had swollen breasts and cysts and had to have biopsy last year as one large one and lots of small ones. They thought I was on HRT as had so many! Fortunately, it was all ok.
Cysts, growths and inflammation are all obvious signs of high oestrogen.
MaryG here has written some interesting posts on how important it is to keep
oestrogen and progesterone as stable as possible, to avoid migraine, if you do a search. Some of it will be in the compounded hormones thread.
Also ElizabethRose has some amazing posts on migraines and Sparkle too on the digestion side.
