Ladies: Do you notice an improvement in your speech fluency immediately following your cycle? I've been tracking my menstrual cycle and speech fluency for a few years and noticed that my level of fluency directly correlates to the phase of my menstrual cycle. Two weeks before my cycle is when I stutter and suffer from vocal blocks the most. However, when I'm on the tail end of my cycle, and the week after are when my fluency is almost at 90%. Does anyone else experience this? I did a little digging and found a few posts from Trans men and women using HRT that noticed a measurable increase in their speech fluency. Long story short, I'm going to push my theory a bit further and schedule a few medical tests to get my hormone levels checked. Could be a treatment, could be nothing, but in desperate and it's worth a shot.
