What Hormones Are In What Part Of Your Cycle?

Have you ever wondered if or which of your many hormones shine throughout your cycle? For example, how does your period differ from ovulation? How does that differ from the week before your period that might cause PMS symptoms? And does this change in perimenopause?

The menstrual cycle is normally divided into 2 phases - the follicular phase and the luteal phase.

The day you start your period is counted as day 1 and is the start of the follicular phase.
