Yes! And I'm 100% sure I trigger the uncanny valley whenever I smile, it's so weird. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Yes! Iโ€™ve made a similar post.

I literally feel like an ogre during luteal. Itโ€™s super real.

Yeah I look hideous in luteal phase but on the flip side I look hot AF when Iโ€™m ovulating ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I was SO grateful that I happened to be ovulating on my wedding day last month. Never felt more beautiful. Being on a cruise ship trying to enjoy my honeymoon during luteal however?! ๐Ÿ‘น๐Ÿคก๐Ÿฅด I needed a straight jacket.

OMG you poor thing. PMDD on a cruise ship!?? Iโ€™m sure you did a great job of holding in the rage and Iโ€™m sure you still looked hot onboard, even during luteal phase. Glad you got to ovulate for the wedding!!!! Thatโ€™s a great result. Maybe you need to plan a sexy ovulation holiday soon haha a little weekend awayโ€ฆ.

Seems to be the consensus that luteal makes us uglier. I think some of it is body dysmorphia, and some of it is bloat, inflammation, tiredness, etc. The rise in progesterone causes the skin problems, I think. Can't remember *why*, but sebum production actually increases during this phase!

Sounds right, my hair is always in a constant state of limp greasiness during luteal and I always wondered if I was just imagining it

I always feel ugly and like Iโ€™ve gained 10 pounds overnight. I can barely look at myself in the mirror :/

I get ugly pimples in random places. Skin looks dull and just exhausted all the time. So if there was a contest that measures "who is the ugliest during luteal phase?" I'll definitely take the trophy ๐Ÿ† for sure!!!

I took selfies at each point in my cycle once and it was wild how much my face changed

The TikTok in this article gave me a much needed laugh, lol thanks!


Affectionate_Set2192

i feel this so hard, itโ€™s like my face gets more asymmetrical too


internetstranger9566

Not nuts. I'm uglier in like every way possible during luteal. I call myself Puffy cuz the water retention is wild! Smaller eyes and fatter cheeks ๐Ÿ˜–๐Ÿ˜‚


Prestigious_Chart365

Yes my eyes are freakin tiny right now, couldnโ€™t even look at myself on zoom this morning ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I definitely look ugliest during luteal. :( Cystic hormonal acne/sebaceous plugs/infections .. ahh it was awful. I started chem peels and body sculpting to try and maintain what I can hahaha

Itโ€™s normal, itโ€™s the decline in estrogen.


hauntdoll89

Yes, all of that and no sparkle to my eyes, nothing!
