The blisters- I'm not sure that's what they're triggered by, but I feel pretty sure that there's a correlation. I've self-diagnosed it as dishydrotic eczema. Mine looks like a very mild case of the first picture- usually I get three or four little bumps on the sides of each of my index and middle fingers around the time of my period. It's been happening since I was 13 (when I started menstruating). When I started birth control they went away almost completely! I guess we shall see if they come back.
