Or do Babesia and Bartonella symptoms flare as well?

Thanks.

I believe they all flair. Your immune system takes a dive during your period and the hormonal changes don't help either. All viruses, parasites and bacterial infections are opportunistic in nature so all of them would use this to their advantage. Hope that makes sense!
