ayup. This is fairly intense with me - (I really began to notice it when my female roommate and I were both incredibly bitchy to one another around her time - I might've thought, sympathetic or empathetic response to her heavy ovulation. Until she moved out, & I found I am worse the same time, around the 20th of the month) - lunacy it's called, per monthly; WTF?! I am not on HRT, and have actually put it off accordingly til I get used to it. I get some other, more desirable effects (people who have not seen me for a few weeks assume I have begun HRT, heavy dosage, wot?), too, so no prob? Cannot deny the femaleness of my brain when it gets physical with me. She kicks my ass...
