    Hormonal cycling...

    Looking for either anecdotal or actual evidence here, whatever exists!!

    When do skin flare ups/break outs occur within the cycle?

    Is there some sort of peak in hormones at a particular point of the cycle? Or does it vary from women to women?

    Gross generalizations welcome

    I'm asking because I don't have AF back yet but I am noticing my skin has started playing up a bit and wonder if AF is near by...

    Any ideas?

    Hello lovely lady,

    I would always break out just before AF arrived. Normally one of 2 big pimples, about 3 or 4 days before it arrived.

    Although I assume it would vary from woman to woman, just as everything does.

    Good question!! My skin is horrible just now and I've been getting very mild AF like cramps and am wondering if AF will show up - so far I've had nothing!

    Subscribing toooooooo!

    could be a sign that your body is trying to get back into the swing of things or it could just be the amount of chocolate you have consumed lately due to easter ???
    my body use to tease me for a bit before it got back into the swing of it all- those damn hormones!!

    I always break out about 3-4 days before AF is due.

    Hmmmm so it could be happening soon maybe... Who knows? Maybe if booby baby would stop feeding overnight I might have more luck...

    I just wish I knew where I was in my cycle, or if I am going to be o'ing any time soon! Every time I feel sick I have to run for the HPT...
