does anyone else notice their bp shifts are strongly correlated to their hormones?! sorry if that's a TMI question, but I haven't seen this come up yet. I have always had mood swings around my period and ovulation but started mood cycling pretty much constantly and having trouble sleeping as well as other major depressive symptoms with occasional hypomanic symptoms (no matter the time of month) after my son was born and it got much, much worse when he stopped breastfeeding. I felt the most mentally stable I ever have in my life while I was pregnant.

have any other ladies experienced anything like this? my doctor seems dismissive that there is a connection but I KNOW that for me the big hormone changes associated with my son's birth precipitated my developing more severe and "typical" bipolar II symptoms. I don't know that it matters that much from a treatment perspective just wondering if there is anyone else like me...
