Has anyone noticed that their candida REALLY gets worse around their PMS time?
I have noticed mine gets way worse to the point where I can't eat and I just spit up yeast. I am not having much luck with candida treatment and I'm hoping supplementing with huge (well relatively huge!) doses of progesterone will help. I have major PMS symptoms. My doc wants me to go on high progesterone for at least one month.

Yes, I have heard that due to hormone flucutations Candida can get worse at that time.

CatWoman - if you heal your organs that produce progesterone might they then be able to produce the hormones in balance and as needed ? And then have no PMS ?
I know many people use progesterone cream. That IMO is treating symptoms and not the true causes. The best book I have ever seen and used is "Conquer Candida and Restore Your Immune System by Dr. Jack Tips.

Yes Cat.. it seems I had the yeast "blow up" mostly right before my cycle. And incredible PMS that eventually went month round.
The progestrone was a life saver. If it helps you.. please use it and don't sit on the sidelines needlessly suffering as life passes you by.
Every day we are given is precious and we can't get them back.
