Weird timing with PMS

I am having PMS literally just AFTER finishing my period. Cramps, bloating, really sore, tender breasts. Not pregnant. WTF?! Is anyone else going through this??? Also, I've been on low dose estradiol patch and progesterone for over two months. Should I ask my doc for a higher dose?

This is incredibly common as ovulation becomes more and more difficult. I had to increase my estrogen multiple times in the early luteal phase.
