Has anyone noticed an increase of hives around the time of the month
All I want to do is cry
for all the girls has anyone noticed an increase of hives around the time of the month? I’ve been hive free (except for maybe two or three tiny ones) for almost 3 months and now all of a sudden I have HUGE welts under/on my boobs and now they’re spreading to the tops 😭 all I want to do is cry

Yup most of my symptoms are that time of the month and ovulation. My allergist diagnosed me with autoimmune progesterone dermatitis. Now waiting to get into a OBGYN specialist for it. I also get other symptoms with it. Joint pain, mouth ulcers, menstural migraines, throat swelling, angiodema of my eyes, and hives.

Jessica Wright

Debra Suplee Donahue I’m on my second day of meds and can already tell a huge difference. Thank you again for sharing! I have hope finally.
Debra Suplee Donahue
Kellie, oh lawdy, that’s great news. Please keep me advised of your journey back to sanity…

Debra, my regular doctor would not write this for me because my biopsy came back as an allergy. I’m so frustrated. I’ve had hives for 1.5 years
Debra Suplee Donahue
Thats crap. Find another doctor who will listen, is my best advice.
Kamila Staton
Debra, i would love an update to know if the Dexedrine is still helping
Debra Suplee Donahue
Kamila, it’s been working since 1995.

I’m menopausal but find the hives in my nether region so uncomfortable!
Rebecca Fic Odell
Yes, a few days before. And the first few days of.

PS – boob hives suuuuuuuck!
Lori Hlopak Janicki
Absolutely. Every month.
Rachel Iglesias
I asked a dr in urgent care about that years ago and he looked at me like I was crazy
Nalini Roy Babber
Could it be coz your clothes are tighter – I get pressure hives so wear loose clothing during this time
Debra Suplee Donahue
Hives will occur premenstrually because you’re excreting more fluid…EXTRAVASCULARLY. The fluid is going into your tissue and THAT is the root cause of the hives. Please reject allergy diagnoses. This is a vascular issue, and women are prone to permeability defects in a 10:1 ratio to men. Please read this article, written by my doctor, Jerome Check. He saved my life and I have been hive-free BECAUSE OF THIS TREATMENT since 1995.
Veronica Jones
By this time last year, I had spent 10 days in the hospital and at least 1 overnight ER visit a month… all during my period!
Randi Rasberry
Girl, yes. The week leading up to my period is usually hell. How many of you who experience this are also on hormonal contraceptive (IUD, OCPs)?
Maxine Wallace
I’m so glad u brought this up, I have 5-7 days free from hives and after my period is away bang I’m back with the hives and they seem to get bigger each month that passes.
Hives can come and go with this change in my body
I have been dealing with hives since March 2019
