My symptoms 100% fluctuate with my menstrual cycle.

Regarding duration... the theory of most of the researchers I follow is that it's easier to reverse the earlier people try treatments. I'm just past 6 mo which is apparently a turning point . 🙁

Omg…my friend and I have been trying to find others who have covid-like symptoms that coincide with out menstrual cycles!!! I was so happy to read this! Ours last a day or two and are basically slightly less severe versions of our original symptoms. Crushing fatigue and extreme body aches. The symptoms always include achy toes, too.

Neither of us tested positive the first time but both had direct exposure.

This has been so frustrating. Around the time that I got Covid (it was November 2020) my periods started being less regular and eventually disappeared, but my symptoms still followed my old monthly cycle.

Have you encountered many other people whose symptoms coincide with their cycles?
