I have been getting this sickness roughly around the 20th of each month, and I am starting to wonder is this a period? I usually get nausea and a headache, and I feel like I might be a bit moodier, but this could also be a result of me being sick.
Hey Sky, here’s some information about trans women’s periods: https://curvyandtrans.com/p/C4BD87/cycle-dynamics
That was fascinating, thanks for sharing!
Definitely!
It’s a thing! Taking hormones can cause you to get a cycle. I get cramps and a bit of an upset stomach around the same time as my cis partner. It’s really interesting.
Hi, I just want to say I get these symptoms too
I definitely get pms symptoms. They typically resolve after a couple of days of cramps and gastrointestinal symptoms. It was actually my mom that noticed the cyclical nature of these symptoms and said they reminded her of her cycle (before she had her uterus and ovaries removed). So, while I don’t think we get periods per se, I definitely believe we can have period symptoms.
Yeah perhaps. I don’t know but I just knew my once a month sickness kinda sucks.
My trans friend thought she was having her period because she had pain and spotting. It turned out she had a bleeding bladder infection.
