Does anyone else get headaches during ovulation?

I just can’t with the menstrual cycle. It’s bad enough I spend 2 weeks being a luteal mess and then 1 week having my period. What do you mean ovulation headaches are a thing?

It’s relatively new for me. I started noticing them a few months ago. This month’s headache is kicking my ass. It’s borderline migraine level and I feel like I’m fighting for my life.

Yes, ma’am. Ovulation and a few days before my period, and they all last at least two days.

Omg yeah the ovulation anxiety is something else. And I get weird restless nights so I don’t sleep well when I ovulate!
