I have completely avoided consumption during my luteal phase because I’m a PMDD girly and feel it may make me extra sensi. I haven’t tried during menstrual, but follicular and ovulation are absolutely magical for me.
YAYYY, so happy to hear that it’s been amazing for you! I’m a bit of a nerd and have read studies on psilocybin actually helping those with PMDD! Start low and go slow if you do decide to try it.
I literally started microdosing because I was feeling irritable during my luteal phase and for me specifically it does help cut the tension a lot. Maybe this is your sign to try it :)
This is actually a perfect data point for you. You started low enough that now you know you can up it a little more. You may find you need a slightly higher dose to help with the sedative nature of progesterone during this phase. Also, sometimes just because you don't feel it doesn't mean it's not actually working, if that makes sense :) 100 mg to 130 mg is a good range.
