When Does Allergy Season Start?

When does allergy season start? We’ve got the answer.

For anyone who needs to deal with allergies, knowing exactly when the allergy season starts is crucial. However, it can be very challenging to easily find accurate information online.

When does it start?
Different plants will start producing pollen during different months of the year. That is why it feels like there are “seasons” for when your allergy symptoms start acting up. Below we have listed the different times of the year when certain plants may cause you to have a reaction.

Tree pollen – March and April
Grass pollen – May
Weed pollen – June and July
Ragweed pollen – July, August into the end of the year

The warmer months tend to be worse for allergies because that is the time of year when plants are reproducing and thus making the most pollen. However, if it feels as if the allergy season is getting longer each year, that is because it is getting longer.

Climate change has produced an extension of annual warmer weather worldwide. That means that plants are producing pollen for longer periods, extending the allergy season. Therefore, if you have allergies, that means you will have to deal with them longer. However, knowing when the pollen of different plants starts releasing can help you manage your allergies.

In other words, you want to know when the seasons start before the allergies begin wearing you down. For most people, that can be difficult to pinpoint.

When to start treating your allergies

It is beneficial to start allergy therapy long before the first pollens begin to release. You can use the above list to determine when that may begin. For example, if you wanted to avoid allergies when the weeds started producing pollen, you should start preparing before the end of June at the very latest.

If you forget to do that, you can simply start allergy therapy when you notice you are starting to have a reaction. The earlier you work on preventing your immune system from being disrupted, the better.

What if my current allergy treatment is not Working?
If you are treating your symptoms with over-the-counter (OTC) medications and your symptoms are not going away, you may need to change some of your habits. You are likely bringing pollen into your home without realizing it.
