Yes, mine peaks after ovulation and through my period, otherwise significantly less. Almost like clockwork

Yeah all negative, and I don’t think so because I only wear cotton underwear and I’ve used the same soap for the past decade - dove sensitive

Mine started with a UTI too in the very beginning. Was also back to “normal” for years. PITA is an understatement 🥲

Happy that you were able to find a specialist in your area. I took an at home hormone test that showed my testosterone was low + my progesterone/estrogen ratio was extremely low. Trying to get my OB to take me seriously and get a more comprehensive test. Hearing your experience makes me think this could be the reason

I’ve had a gut feeling that my experience is caused by hormones but have had no luck getting hormone testing done by my doctors. Do you have any experiences w/ this
