So this might be a completely stupid question but I’m new to this. I just started having regular periods at the old age of 22 lol. I’m on my solid 3rd month of regular cycles ranging between 30-32 days whereas before I’d go sometimes 100 days between periods. So, in other words bare with me.

I never had bad period symptoms, hell I didn’t experience real cramps until last year. Well this cycle I knew the second I ovulated not only due to familiar ovulation pain and an opk but because my hormones went coo coo I wanted to jump my boyfriend so bad I couldn’t even hear what he was saying because I was staring at his mouth and imagining it in other places if ya know what I mean. Well that passed and then my period symptoms came on. My cramps were my new normal and so was my breast pain and fatigue but omg my cravings have become their own beast! Chocolate and cupcakes is all I want! So, my question is with my cycle becoming normal why am I having crazy intense symptoms? If my hormones are regulating themselves shouldn’t I be experiencing less and possibly less intense symptoms? I mean I legit just asked my boss for the chocolate truffles on his desk 🙈 I feel crazy haha help!!
